Abstract This article analyses various representations of the figure ‘pit brow lassie’ with a particular emphasis on two novels; Frances Hodgson Burnett’s That Lass O’ Lowrie’s (1877) and John Monk Foster’s A Pit Brow Lassie (1889). It argues that pit women provided focus for discussions interplay class gender roles in Victorian Britain. The begins by tracing history attitudes towards women’s e...

BACKGROUND The eyebrows and eyebrow fat pads, key structures in upper facial aesthetics, are particularly vulnerable to age-related changes. OBJECTIVES In this study, the authors compare the impact of aging on the eyebrows and eyebrow fat pad volume in men and women through three-dimensional (3D) volumetric analysis. METHODS Electronic medical records of patients seen at the Jules Stein Eye...

Electrotherapy devices, used for decades to reduce pain and swelling following surgery, have undergone significant refinements and have been used successfully in rhytidectomy, liposculpture, laser resurfacing, brow lift, facial fat grafting, rhinoplasty, abdominoplasty, and breast surgery. The devices are currently available as wearable patches.

The scalar and vector self-energies obtained through QCD sum rules are introduced in Quantum Hadrodynamics (QHD) equations. The results indicate that the ratios of coupling constants to respective meson mass have a very small dependence on density. Then, an extended Brow-Rho scaling law is conjectured.

We treated a selected group of patients with superior-half bullous retinal detachments by preoperative bed rest and immobilisation of the affected eye using a temporary inferior rectus suture taped to the brow. Sufficient flattening of the retina was achieved in each case to permit successful simple extrascleral detachment surgery.

This article discusses adjunctive skin care of the brow and periorbital region. Anatomic properties of eyelid skin require skin care products specifically suited to this area. Common patient concerns, including wrinkles, infraorbital dark circles, puffiness, and thinning eyebrows and eyelashes, are addressed in the context of contributing anatomic and physiologic factors and the classes of and/...

BACKGROUND Nonablative skin tightening technologies offer the prospect of reduction of wrinkles and skin sagging with minimal downtime, discomfort, and risk of adverse events. The excellent safety profile is mitigated by the limited efficacy of such procedures. OBJECTIVE We sought to assess the efficacy of ultrasound skin tightening for brow-lift in the context of a procedure treating the ful...

The authors contend that their triangular pattern of Botox administration provides reproducible correction of both static and dynamic forehead wrinkles with minimal risk of brow and upper lid ptosis. Further, by varying dosage and injection technique, mimetic function may be preserved or obliterated.

BACKGROUND Ocular adnexal IgG4-related sclerosing disease (IgG4-SD) has been categorized as a novel disease entity. It is characterized by stromal sclerosis and an infiltration of mass-forming lymphoplasmic cells containing many IgG4-positive plasma cells. Although ocular adnexal tissue involvement has been increasingly reported, a focal nodular sub-brow mass is not typical in an IgG4-SD presen...

DESCRIPTION A 25-year-old man presented as a trauma alert to the emergency department after being involved in a motor vehicle crash. After appropriate ATLS (advanced trauma life support) evaluation, a large bulky head wrap was removed revealing a 25-cm transverse laceration extending from the medial brow traversing the most cephalad portion of the right superior helix, and extending toward occi...
