What Is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift, or forehead lift, is a cosmetic procedure designed to raise the eyebrows, reduce forehead wrinkles, and improve the overall appearance of the upper face. By lifting the brow, this surgery can open up the eyes and provide a more alert and youthful look.
Types of Brow Lifts
There are several techniques for performing a brow lift, each personalized to meet specific needs and preferences:
- Traditional brow lift – This method involves an incision along the hairline to lift the forehead and brow. It is ideal for individuals with significant sagging and deep wrinkles.
- Endoscopic brow lift – A minimally invasive technique using small incisions and a tiny camera (endoscope) to lift the brow. This method results in less scarring and a quicker recovery.
- Non-surgical brow lift – For those looking for a less invasive option, non-surgical treatments like neuromodulators (e.g., Botox) can temporarily lift the brow and smooth wrinkles.
Candidates for a Brow Lift
Ideal candidates for a brow lift at our Houston practice are those who experience sagging eyebrows, deep forehead wrinkles, or a perpetually tired appearance. Good candidates should be in overall good health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the outcome of the surgery.
