Brow Lift
Rejuvenating the Upper Face for a Youthful Appearance
What is brow lift?
A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a cosmetic procedure designed to raise the position of the eyebrows, reduce forehead wrinkles and reduce the appearance of frown lines. This procedure refreshes the upper third of the face, creating a more youthful, alert and approachable look. A brow lift is ideal for patients who want to smooth signs of aging in the forehead and brow area while preserving and enhancing natural facial expressions.
How it works
A brow lift is a tailored procedure. Dr. Dolev approaches each case with a customized technique. It is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. The specific technique depends on the degree of correction needed and the patient’s facial structure. The procedure involves the following steps:
Incision Placement
Small, discreet incisions are made either along the hairline, within the scalp, or in the natural creases of the forehead. These incisions are strategically placed to reduce visible scarring. This is often referred to as an Endoscopic Brow Lift as an endoscope, or tiny camera, is inserted through the tiny incisions. Dr. Dolev uses the camera to visualize and lift the brow tissues, repositioning or tightening the underlying muscles and securing the new brow position.
Lifting and Repositioning
The underlying tissues of the forehead and brow are lifted and repositioned through the incisions. Excess skin may be removed, and the muscles responsible for deep frown lines can be adjusted to soften their appearance.
Refinement and Closure
The skin is redraped with smooth, natural contours. The incisions are closed with fine sutures.
Complementary Procedures (Optional)
For comprehensive rejuvenation, a brow lift can be combined with other facial procedures, such as blepharoplasty or a facelift.
A brow lift is a transformative procedure that rejuvenates the upper face and enhances overall facial harmony. Lifting the brows and smoothing the forehead restores a youthful and refreshed appearance while preserving the natural expressions that make you unique.
Benefits of Brow Lift:
- Youthful Appearance: Elevates drooping brows, smooths forehead wrinkles, and reduces frown lines.
- Enhanced Facial Expressions: Creates an approachable and alert appearance by reducing the sag and heaviness of the brow.
- Natural Results: Restores a youthful eyebrow contour without an overdone or artificial look.
- Minimal Scarring: Discreet incision placement and advanced techniques make scars virtually invisible.
Long-Lasting Results
A brow lift provides long-lasting rejuvenation of the upper face. While the natural aging process will continue after the procedure, the results can be enjoyed for many years. Proper skin care and sun protection are recommended to maintain skin quality. The procedure delivers a refreshed, youthful appearance that enhances facial harmony and boosts self-esteem.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
A brow lift is ideal for individuals experiencing sagging or heavy brows, deep forehead wrinkles, or prominent frown lines that make them appear tired, angry, or older than they are. Good candidates are generally healthy, do not smoke, and have realistic expectations about what brow lift can achieve. This procedure is particularly suited for patients in their 40s to 60s, but it can also benefit younger individuals.
