The first signs of ageing frequently appear around the eyes, and one common concern is lateral hooding (sagging or drooping skin at the outer corners of the eyes). This issue can create a heavy, shadowed, “fatigued” appearance. Thankfully, a combination of brow lift and eyelid surgery can offer an effective solution – especially when performed by a facial rejuvenation expert like Mr William Townley.
Lateral hooding occurs when the forehead skin and muscle become stretched. The effect is often worsened by a descending brow, which pushes additional skin down toward the eyelids and further contributes to the “hooded” appearance. While upper eyelid surgery alone can tighten and remove excess skin, incorporating a brow lift can produce more dramatic and longer-lasting results. By lifting the brow and tightening the eyelids simultaneously, this combined approach can create a more vibrant and youthful aesthetic.
If you have noticed signs of lateral hooding, you may be a good candidate for a brow lift combined with eyelid surgery. During your consultation, Mr Townley can evaluate your facial structure and discuss your goals to build a personalised treatment plan. Schedule your appointment with Mr Townley today.
