A Consultation That's All About You
Your surgeon will evaluate the entire face to identify the cause of the issue.
Patients often ask for eyelid surgery to correct eyebrow hooding (outer brow hanging over the eyelid). In reality, though, the surgeon can correct their concerns with a brow lift.
With the expertise to recognize these anatomical relationships, our surgeons will determine the best course of action to address your personal needs.
Your Brow Lift Procedure
A brow lift targets the upper third of the face — forehead, brow, and upper eyelids — addressing brow furrows (the area commonly treated with BOTOX® Cosmetic) and forehead creases. The surgeon may also perform upper eyelid surgery if excess upper or lower eyelid skin exists.
Dr. Bidic and Dr. Gundlapalli can perform an endoscopic brow lift to raise the lateral (outer) brow only. They can also use an open brow lift to lift the entire brow and smooth out forehead and brow wrinkles.
Both surgeries require staples in the hair and an overnight drain. An open procedure may also involve sutures, depending on the height of the hairline.
Brow Lift Benefits
A brow lift offers many benefits that enhance both your appearance and confidence:
- Youthful Appearance: A brow lift smooths forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and crow's feet. It rejuvenates your face for a more youthful look.
- Elevated Brows: The procedure raises sagging brows. It reduces the appearance of heaviness and creates a more open and alert expression.
- Enhanced Eye Area: Lifting the brows makes the upper eyelids appear less droopy. This surgery makes the eyes look larger and more refreshed.
- Reduction of Tired or Angry Expressions: A brow lift softens deep furrows and frown lines. These can make you look tired, angry, or stressed.
- Long-Lasting Results: A brow lift provides lasting structural improvements to the brow and forehead area.
- Improved Self-Confidence: A rejuvenated appearance often increases self-esteem and comfort in social or professional settings.
- Customizable Results: Your surgeon can tailor the procedure to your unique anatomy and goals.
- Subtle, Natural Look: When performed by an experienced surgeon, a brow lift creates a refined and natural appearance without looking "overdone."
- Minimal Scarring: Modern techniques place incisions within the hairline or natural facial contours. This leaves scars virtually invisible.
Ideal Brow Lift Candidates
A brow lift works best for individuals who meet certain criteria. An ideal candidate is someone who:
- Has Visible Signs of Aging: Candidates often have sagging or drooping eyebrows, deep forehead wrinkles, or pronounced frown lines between the eyebrows.
- Is in Good General Health: Ideal candidates should be physically healthy. They should not have medical conditions impairing healing or increasing surgical risks.
- Does Not Smoke: Smoking can hinder recovery and affect surgical outcomes. Non-smokers or those willing to quit are preferred.
- Has Realistic Expectations: Candidates should understand what a brow lift can achieve. They should also maintain realistic goals for their post-surgery appearance.
- Desires Rejuvenation: Patients should seek to improve a tired, angry, or aged appearance through subtle yet effective enhancements.
- Has Minimal Skin Elasticity Loss: Brow lifts can address sagging. However, candidates with moderate skin laxity in the brow and forehead areas tend to achieve the best results.
- Has No Underlying Eye or Forehead Conditions: Pre-existing conditions like uncontrolled dry eye or certain forehead skin issues may need further consultation.
- Has Stable Emotional and Mental Health: Candidates should have a clear understanding of the procedure, a positive outlook, and the ability to handle recovery.
- Is in a Suitable Age Range: There is no specific age limit. However, most candidates are usually in their 40s to 60s. Younger individuals with hereditary low or sagging brows may also benefit.
What to Expect After Treatment
Our plastic surgeons are passionate about their work. Their ultimate goal is to listen to your wishes and concerns and then safely create the results you desire. Long before your surgery begins, they are planning for your procedure.
Staples are removed after 2 weeks. At this time, most patients can return to work. You must avoid lifting more than 5 to 10 pounds and limit activities that raise the heart rate above 100 for 3 weeks. After recovery, patients typically enjoy a more youthful, refreshed, and engaging appearance.
