What Is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift, also called a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure that raises the position of the eyebrows and smooths deep forehead lines, addressing a heavy or low brow that can create a tired, tense, or aged appearance. The procedure repositions underlying tissue and, depending on the technique, may also address excess skin on the forehead.

The Benefits of a Brow Lift in Flowood

  • Raised Brow Position: The procedure lifts brows that have descended and begun to hood the eyes.
  • Softened Forehead Lines: A brow lift can smooth deep horizontal lines and furrows between the brows.
  • A More Alert Appearance: Many patients feel their expression looks more rested and awake without changing their overall look.
  • Combination Potential: A brow lift is often combined with eyelid surgery or a facelift for more comprehensive rejuvenation.
  • Long-Lasting Results: The procedure addresses the underlying causes of brow descent, offering durable results.

Your Brow Lift Results and Recovery

Most patients take about two weeks off from work, with more strenuous activity restricted for a couple of weeks longer. Swelling and bruising gradually subside over the following weeks, and final results become clearer as healing progresses over the following month. Results are considered long-lasting, though the natural aging process continues afterward.

Brow Lift Frequently Asked Questions

Will a brow lift make me look surprised or unnatural?

No. A well-performed brow lift is designed to look natural and restore a more alert expression, not create an overly raised or surprised appearance.

Will I have visible scarring?

Incisions are typically placed within the hairline, resulting in minimal visible scarring.

Can a brow lift be combined with other procedures?

Yes, a brow lift is often combined with eyelid surgery or a facelift for more comprehensive rejuvenation.

How long do brow lift results last?

Results are considered long-lasting, often a decade or more, though the natural aging process continues afterward.

How long before I can return to normal activity?

Most patients return to work within about two weeks, with a gradual return to exercise and strenuous activity over the following weeks.

Is a brow lift a good alternative to neuromodulators like BOTOX?

A brow lift addresses structural descent surgically, while BOTOX temporarily relaxes muscles that contribute to forehead lines. They address different concerns and can sometimes complement each other.

Is financing available for a brow lift?

Yes, we offer financing options for patients interested in learning more. Ask our team during your consultation for details.
