Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the eyebrow fixation technique through the upper eyelish incision. The surgery was performed at the Ocular Fascial Plastic and Reconstructive Department of the Vietnam National Eye Hospital from October 2023 to October 2024. Subjects and methods: An uncontrolled descriptive intervention study on a group of patients diagnosed with grade 2 or 3 eyebrow prolapse with mild and moderate brow prolapse. Results: The male-to-female ratio was 1:2.33, 60% of patients over 60 years old, of which 70% of patients are in the age group of 40-60 years. 77.5% of patients had moderate eyebrow prolapse. 70% had excess eyelashes above grade 2 and 30% of patients had excess eyelids of grade 3. 60% of patients have an eyebrow gap of 10-12 mm while 40% of patients have an eyebrow gap of less than 10 mm. After surgery, 95% of patients achieve successful results. The condition of excess eyelashes and skin wrinkles is significantly improved after surgery. Conclusion: The method of fixing the eyebrows through the cut-off of the eyelashes is a step.
