Understanding Brow Lift Procedures

Wrinkles and frown lines typically first emerge in the forehead and brow area. A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, can effectively reduce horizontal wrinkle lines on the forehead and bridge of the nose, while addressing frown lines between the eyebrows.

Procedure Overview

• Length of Procedure: Varies depending on method used
• Anesthesia: Local, with deep sedation
• Procedure Type: Outpatient

Brow Lift Procedure Methods

Open Method

During the open method, incisions are strategically placed behind or at the hairline. The surgeon makes improvements to the forehead and brow muscles, then tightens the skin and muscles to raise the eyebrows into a more youthful position.

Closed, Endoscopic Method

The endoscopic brow lift offers a minimally invasive alternative. Instead of a large incision, several small incisions are made within the hairline. An endoscope camera and specialized instruments are used to perform precise muscle work. The brow is then elevated and suspended using specialized anchoring sutures.

Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation

Brow lift procedures can be performed independently or in combination with other cosmetic treatments such as facelifts, eyelid surgery, or laser skin resurfacing to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
