title: The brow and forehead in periocular rejuvenation.
abstract: Recognition of the brow as an integral contributor to periocular appearance improves and prolongs results from facial rejuvenation surgery. The approach to the brow and forehead in periocular rejuvenation must be chosen on an individual basis. The approaches discussed require in-depth knowledge of complex forehead and temporal anatomy to navigate the planes and important neurovascular structures safely. This article discusses anatomy, preoperative evaluation and considerations, surgical techniques, and complications in rejuvenation of forehead and brow.
