Also known as a forehead lift, a brow lift minimizes the creases that develop across the forehead, or those that occur high on the bridge of the nose; improves what are commonly referred to as frown lines; and repositions a low or sagging brow.

Enhancing your appearance with a brow lift

If you are bothered by expression lines or other signs of aging in the brow region, a brow lift may be right for you. A brow lift:

• Minimizes the creases that develop across the forehead, or those that occur high on the bridge of the nose, between the eyes

• Improves what are commonly referred to as frown lines, vertical creases that develop between the eyebrows

• Repositions a low or sagging brow that is hooding the upper eyelid

• Raises the eyebrows to a more alert and youthful position

Rejuvenation procedures typically performed in conjunction with a brow lift include:

• Eyelid surgery to rejuvenate aging eyes

• Facelift to correct aging changes in the mid- to lower face and neck regions

• Skin resurfacing techniques

A brow lift is a highly individualized procedure and you should do it for yourself, not to fulfill someone else’s desires or to try to fit any sort of ideal image. Brow lift surgery may be a good option for you if:

• You are physically healthy

• You don’t smoke

• You have a positive outlook and specific, but realistic goals in mind for the improvement of your appearance
