Rejuvenate and Refresh with an Eyebrow Lift
Over time, the eyebrows can begin to sag. Not only can this look unappealing, but it can actually interfere with your vision as well. If this sounds like something that is happening to you, consider an eyebrow lift. This straightforward cosmetic procedure can help smooth out wrinkles, lift your brows, and leave you looking years younger.
What Is an Eyebrow Lift?
An eyebrow lift is sometimes referred to as a forehead lift. It is a cosmetic surgery that can help:
- Raise sagging brows that can begin to hood over your upper eyelids
- Reduce the horizontal lines across the forehead and upper nose
- Reduce the appearance of frown lines between the eyebrows
- Place the eyebrows in a position that makes you look more youthful
Who Should Consider an Eyebrow Lift?
Both men and women can benefit from this procedure if they are bothered by the appearance of lines on their forehead or sagging eyebrows. It can be helpful if you feel like your frown lines make you appear unfriendly or angry. A brow lift is ideal for someone willing to take dramatic steps to rejuvenate their appearance.
Good candidates for this procedure are:
- Non-smokers
- In good general health
- Realistic about their expectations
What to Expect with an Eyebrow Lift
The first step is to come in for a consultation. We can discuss your goals for this treatment and make sure you are a good candidate for an eyebrow lift. This surgery is done on an outpatient basis but you will need to arrange for a driver.
The type of incisions used will depend on your goals for the treatment. They will not be noticeable once you have healed. The tissue and muscles in your forehead will be adjusted to give you a more youthful appearance. Your incisions will then be closed.
Although you will see immediate results after your procedure, the full effect may not be obvious for the first few weeks. As the swelling fades and your incisions fade, the results will just get better and better. In order to keep up your improvements, it is important to avoid direct sun exposure and maintain a healthy diet.
