LAM FACIAL PLASTICS

Hi I have a question.I'm a 21 yr old male and I would like to have my eye brows lifted or look the way I had them like 5-6 years ago?, and have the brow impression of energy, happy, not tired or frown looking..

The misconception is brows fall during aging. In the vast majority of patients when I use their old photos, I show them that their brows actually did not fall in height but just became deflated. Further browlifts in men look pretty bad in most cases (even in women in my opinion). I rarely if ever perform browlifts in men nowadays.

I have no idea why you feel your brows have fallen at the tender age of 21! The youngest person that I have "rejuvenated" was someone 30 with fat grafting and that person had enough sun damage to warrant some mild correction.

Honestly, I can't make sense of why you would like a browlift, especially for a guy at such an early age. If you would like to schedule a consultation with me to further explore this option, you can do so. There is a fee for the consultation that would be refunded to you if you pursue any procedure with me, although I cannot imagine that I would operate on a 21 year old. My consult fee is currently $75 but will go up to $100 starting in January 2008.

I think that since the past many years that I have frowned my upper eyelids look like of a unhappy serious or kind of mad person look.Do you do fat grafting in males to make there eyebrows give them a younger look?

Aha, I think what you need is Botox first (although I have not met you yet). Botox can reverse the frowning behavior and soften the muscles. Remember that low brows on a male are attractive. Look at Tom Cruise's eyes: his brows rest over his eyes. A browlifted look on a male appears feminized if not overtly unnatural. If you live in Dallas, come in for a consultation. If you don't, find a plastic surgeon in your area, but be careful. I personally probably would not advocate a browlift, and some surgeons meeting you may just go ahead and decide to do it. I have a very strong aesthetic sense of what makes someone look good and natural, and I stick to it.

Is there an alternative for botox?That is effective or more effective then botox..

For softening facial muscles and bad habits, there is no alternative to Botox. It would be nice to offer you something "permanent", but right now that does not exist.

Hi Dr. Lam,

Here's a hypothetical: let's assume this gentleman undergoes a browlift. Will the incision marks be visible if male pattern baldness erases his hairline (as it unfortunately does for many men during their 20s and 30s)?

Generally speaking, if done well, most likely not but obviously there is no guarantee. Plus, to restate, I HATE browlifts in women and I HATE BEYOND BELIEF browlifts in men.
