At Cosmetic and Reconstructive Specialists of Florida, we understand that the signs of aging can often be most apparent in the forehead and brow region. A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a transformative facial procedure designed to rejuvenate your face by lifting the eyebrow and smoothing forehead lines. Serving the vibrant community of Ft. Lauderdale, our board-certified plastic surgeons, Dr. Christopher Low and Dr. Michael Cheung, are here to help you achieve a youthful, refreshed look that reflects your inner vitality.
Benefits of a Brow Lift
A brow lift offers numerous aesthetic benefits. Elevating the position of your eyebrows provides you with a more alert and rested appearance. It also smooths out frown lines and wrinkles across your forehead and between your brows, which may otherwise make your face appear tired, angry, or sad. Additionally, this procedure can enhance your facial features' overall balance and harmony, leading to improved self-confidence.
Ideal Candidates
You may be an ideal candidate for brow lift if you experience:
- Drooping eyebrows that make you appear sad or tired.
- Horizontal lines across your forehead.
- Frown lines between the eyebrows or at the top of your nose.
Candidates should be in good general health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the outcome. During your consultation at our Ft. Lauderdale office, we will assess your facial structure and skin quality and discuss your aesthetic goals to determine if a brow lift is the right choice for you.
Brow Lift Procedure Details
A brow lift at Cosmetic and Reconstructive Specialists of Florida is tailored to each patient’s unique needs. The procedure can be performed using various techniques, depending on the extent of the lift needed and the specific areas of concern. More recently, an endoscopic brow lift has become popular because it is less invasive than a traditional (coronal) brow lift.
Commonly, the procedure involves minimal incisions hidden within the hairline or, in some cases, above the brow or in the mid-forehead for patients with high foreheads or receding hairlines. The procedure typically takes about one to two hours and can be performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the techniques utilized and your preferences.
Recovery and Results
Post-procedure, you may experience some swelling and bruising, which typically subsides within a couple of weeks. Most patients can return to work and other normal activities within ten days, and shorter with a modified surgery like an endoscopic brow lift. Your plastic surgeon will provide guidelines to help you stay comfortable during recovery.
The results of a brow lift are visible immediately, with final results apparent as the swelling and bruising fully diminish. The outcomes are long-lasting, helping you maintain a more youthful and refreshed appearance for several years.
