Home/Blog How to address lateral hood

The first signs of aging often appear around the eyes, and a common concern is the lateral hood (fall or the skin fallen in the outer corners of the eyes). This problem can create a heavy, shaded and “tired” appearance. Grateful, a combination of eyebrow elevation and eyelid surgery can sacrifice an effective solution, especially when performed by an expert in facial rejuvenation such as Mr. William Townley.

The lateral hood occurs when the skin and forehead muscle stretch. The effect is from Wesred on a descending front, which pushes additional skin towards the eyelids and more contributions to the appearance “with hood”. While the upper eyelid surgery can only tighten and eliminate excess skin, the incorporation of an eyebrow elevator can produce more dramatic and durable results. When lifting your forehead and adjusting the simultaneous eyelids, this combined approach can create a more vibrant and youthful aesthetic.

If you have noticed signs or side hood, it can be a good candidate for an eyebrow elevator combined with eyelid surgery. Duration of your consultation, Mr. Townley can evaluate its facial structure and discuss its objectives to build a personalized treatment plan. Schedule your appointment with Mr. Townley today.
