Importance: The upper facial third is an important area to address in facial feminization surgery (FFS). Objective: This study seeks to quantify the changes in eyebrow, hairline, and forehead heights associated with brow lift and hairline advancement surgery in the transgender patient population. Design, Setting, and Participants: A cohort study performed at an academic medical center. Main Outcomes and Measures: Pre- and postoperative frontal view photographs underwent computer-aided photograph analysis. Brow position, hairline position, and forehead height were measured. Patient self-identified race, ethnicity, as well as other demographic factors were also collected. Results: Forty-six patients underwent FFS with brow lift and hairline advancement with photographs permitting measurement. Eyebrow analysis was performed in 33 patients. Hairline and forehead analyses were accomplished in 30 patients. The mean brow elevation was 4.6 mm across all locations. The forehead reduction achieved was 9.8-11.3 mm. Conclusion and Relevance: Trichophytic brow lifting with hairline advancement outcomes was able to be reliably quantified from standardized clinical photographs. On average, 4-5 mm of brow lift, 6-7 mm of hairline lowering, and 10-11 mm of forehead reduction were achieved, contributing to a more feminine appearance of the upper facial third.
