Brow Lift
A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at reducing wrinkles, improving frown lines, and raising sagging eyebrows that can cause a tired or sad appearance. The procedure involves repositioning the underlying muscles and tissues of the forehead and brow area to create a more youthful and refreshed look. There are several techniques for performing a brow lift, including the traditional method, endoscopic brow lift, and temporal brow lift, each tailored to meet the individual needs of the patient.
The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation and takes about one to two hours. Recovery time varies depending on the technique used, but most patients can expect to resume normal activities within a week to ten days. Swelling and bruising are common side effects but usually subside within two weeks. The final results, which include smoother forehead skin and a more elevated brow position, are visible once the swelling has fully resolved.
