BACKGROUND: Fat grafting can be used to correct age-related volume loss in the face. However, the degree of rejuvenation is difficult to be evaluated.
OBJECTIVES: The author sought to objectively verify the change in patients' eyebrow position after fat grafting to the upper face.
METHODS: The charts of 175 consecutive patients who underwent autologous fat grafting to the forehead and temple were reviewed. Perioperative changes in the heights of medial, middle, and lateral segments of the eyebrow and the eyebrow slant were recorded and compared. Key prevention strategies to avoid potential complications were discussed.
RESULTS: The eyebrow slant was increased by 2.4° after the operation which was statistically significant (p < 0.05). On the other hand, the medial eyebrow height was decreased, while the middle and lateral eyebrow heights were increased after the surgery which were of no significance. No major complications such as vision loss or vascular compromise were noted.
CONCLUSIONS: Simultaneous autologous fat grafting to the temple and forehead significantly increased the slant of the eyebrows and corrected the loss of upper facial fullness as well. Collectively, these changes made the patient look younger and aesthetically more pleasant.
