Brow Lift
Rejuvenate Your Appearance With A Minimally Invasive Forehead Lift At Champs-Élysées Aesthetic Medical Center
As we age, the skin on the forehead and around the eyes loses its elasticity, and eyebrows can begin to droop. This can often give the impression that you look tired or angry when you’re not. At Champs-Élysées Aesthetic Medical Center, we believe that you deserve to look as good as you feel. A brow lift, or a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure designed to correct signs of aging in the forehead, upper eyelids, and eyebrows. Brow lift surgery can address deep lines, excess skin on the forehead, sagging brows, and upper eyelid hooding to achieve beautifully refreshed arches and a more youthful appearance.
Benefits Of Brow Lift Surgery
- Tighten skin and smooth away wrinkles on the forehead.
- Lift eyebrows for a more relaxed and bright-eyed look.
- Reduce the appearance of frown lines, furrows, and crow’s feet.
- Provide a naturally youthful appearance with minimal downtime and long-lasting results.
Types Of Brow Lift Surgery
- Endoscopic Brow Lift
We recommend an endoscopic approach for most brow lift patients at Champs-Élysées Aesthetic Medical Center because it is less invasive. Endoscopic forehead lift surgery offers the benefits of traditional brow lift surgery with smaller incisions and a shorter recovery time. Two small incisions are made on the scalp, about one inch into the hairline, and an endoscope is used to assist in lifting the forehead skin. Tiny dissolvable implants called Endotines are used to stabilize the muscles and skin in the new, refreshed position.
- Temporal Brow Lift
A temporal lift (often considered a mini brow lift) is best suited for patients looking to enhance and lift the tail end of their eyebrows and the temple area. Small incisions are made near each temple. This type of brow lift is often combined with blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) or a mini facelift.
- Coronal Brow Lift
A traditional brow lift uses a coronal approach, in which a long incision is made in a headband-type pattern on the top of the head, behind the hairline. While an endoscopic brow lift is usually the best choice for most patients, some patients seeking significant change or those with very high foreheads or high hairlines may benefit from a coronal lift.
What To Expect From Your Brow Lift Surgery Preparing For Your Brow Lift?
During your consultation appointment, you’ll meet with a facial plastic surgeon to discuss your options for brow lift surgery and any other cosmetic procedures that can help you achieve your aesthetic goals. Your surgeon will review your medical history, examine you, and determine if you are a candidate for brow lift surgery. If you decide that a brow or forehead lift is right for you, a personalized treatment plan will be created, and you’ll receive detailed pre-surgical instructions.
Your Brow Lift Procedure
Brow lift surgery is typically an outpatient procedure, and the type of sedation used may vary depending on your treatment plan. Most patients receive general anesthesia, although local anesthesia may be used for less invasive brow lift techniques. The surgical process will vary depending on your chosen brow lift type. Your surgeon will make the appropriate incision, lift the skin, recontour the underlying tissue, and close the incisions using sutures.
Recovery After Brow Lift Surgery
Your recovery experience will depend on the type of brow lift you have and factors such as your age and overall health. You’ll be advised to sleep in an inclined position and avoid strenuous activities for a while. In general, endoscopic brow lift patients can expect to resume most day-to-day activities about one week after surgery. If needed, your surgeon will provide guidance on pain medication and other post-operative details.
Brow Lift Results
At Champs-Élysées Aesthetic Medical Center, we consider various factors to provide you with a customized treatment and surgical experience. We take into account all your facial features, skin characteristics, and bone structure to ensure that your results are beautiful and natural-looking. Brow lift results are long-lasting, and your surgeon will recommend an aesthetic routine to maintain and optimize your results for years to come. This may include Botox, fillers, and skin care recommendations.
Who Is A Good Candidate For Brow Lift Surgery?
Ideal candidates for brow lift surgery are seeking rejuvenation in the forehead and eyebrow area, in good general health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations. If you are considering brow lift surgery, a consultation appointment at Champs-Élysées Aesthetic Medical Center can help you determine which type of brow lift or other cosmetic surgery is right for you.
Will I Have Scars After My Brow Lift?
The incisions for brow lift surgery are hidden within the hairline to ensure that any scarring is well-concealed.
My Eyebrows Are Asymmetrical; Can That Be Fixed With A Brow Lift?
If you are a candidate for brow lift surgery, your surgeon may be able to correct asymmetry as well. Discuss this possibility during your consultation appointment.
Am I Too Old Or Too Young For A Brow Lift?
The average age of brow lift patients is between 40 and 60 years old. However, every individual is unique. Sometimes, younger patients seek brow lift surgery due to a genetic predisposition to premature forehead sagging.
Can A Brow Lift Be Combined With Other Procedures?
Many patients combine a brow lift with other facial plastic surgeries, such as eyelid or neck lifts, for more comprehensive rejuvenation.
