What is a Cosmetic Brow Lift?
Also known as a forehead, a cosmetic brow lift is often performed to achieve three goals:
- Raising sagging or drooping brows
- Reducing the appearance of frown lines in the forehead
- Reducing wrinkles and lines in the upper face
After a cosmetic brow lift, skin in the brow area is smoother and tighter, and the eyebrows are placed in a more alert position on the face. This procedure is often coupled with cosmetic eyelid surgery or skin resurfacing treatments to maximize facial rejuvenation. These options can be discussed with our medical team during your consultation. For individuals who have high foreheads, incisions may be adjusted.
What Happens During a Cosmetic Brow Lift?
There are multiple techniques used to perform a cosmetic brow lift, and our medical team will choose the method that best fits your condition and preferences. Incisions are typically made in the hairline and behind the ears to minimize visible scarring. This allows our medical team to fully access your brow structure.
During surgery, underlying tissue and muscles are adjusted to correct wrinkles and fine lines. The skin is then draped, smoothing and tightening the forehead area. The incisions will then be sutured.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Cosmetic Brow Lift?
Men and women who have wrinkles and fine lines in the brow area but who do not want or do not qualify for full facelift surgery may be candidates for a cosmetic brow lift. During your consultation, our medical team will evaluate your individual condition, medical history and cosmetic goals and expectations to determine whether a cosmetic brow lift is right for you.
What is Recovery Like?
After surgery, our medical team will instruct you on any aftercare necessary for your incision sites. Bruising, swelling and discomfort are common during the healing process, and bandages may applied to help protect your new forehead contours. Our medical team will advise you on when you should be able to return to normal activities, and will track your healing and results through follow-up appointments.
