Teach Me Brow Lift - Brow Position

Understanding Ideal Brow Position with Dr. CJ Conlon

The Foundation of Brow Aesthetics

Before considering a brow lift, it's essential to understand where the brow should naturally sit. The ideal position differs significantly between males and females.

Female Brow Position:

• Should rest approximately one centimeter above the orbital rim (the bony ridge around the eye)
• Features a peak that aligns with the outer edge of the iris (the colored part of the eye)

Male Brow Position:

• Should sit on the orbital rim
• Maintains a straighter appearance without significant peaking

Common Brow Concerns

Dr. Conlon sees patients with two primary complaints:

1. The "Scowling" Look - When the middle portion of the brow drops too low, patients appear angry or stern even when they're not
2. The "Tired" Appearance - When the lateral (outer) brow descends, it creates a perpetually exhausted look
