A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift or forehead rejuvenation, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to raise the eyebrows and smooth out wrinkles on the forehead and between the eyes. As we age, the skin and soft tissues in the forehead lose elasticity, causing the brows to droop. This can lead to a tired, sad, or even angry appearance. A brow lift aims to counteract these effects, providing a more youthful and refreshed look.
A brow lift repositions a heavy brow to its natural or optimal position. Heavy or low brows are caused by aging, and in some cases, simply genetics. A brow lift can be done on its own or paired with blepharoplasty.
Initial downtime is typically 1-2 weeks, with swelling and bruising gradually subsiding over several weeks. Many patients can return to normal activities within 1-2 weeks.
Noticeable improvements are visible as initial swelling decreases, with true results becoming more apparent over several months to a year.
