Brow Lift Surgery

If you’ve found that your “resting face” looks too severe or sad, you may benefit from a brow lift. This procedure has the ability to make you look more youthful, refreshed, and pleasant. If you’re interested in a brow lift in Phoenix, we will take great care of you.

What a Brow Lift Does?

One of the first signs of aging is drooping eyelids and brows. When this happens, the face can appear exhausted, sad, angry, or defeated. A brow lift (also called a forehead lift) re-positions the eyebrows, improves the eyelids, and smooths lines in the forehead. The result is a restored, refreshed appearance that makes you look more approachable and attractive.

Different Types of Brow Lifts

During your consultation, your surgeon will discuss with you which technique of brow lift best suits your needs. There are several different methods, including temporal, direct, mid-forehead, pretrichial, coronal, and endoscopic. The ideal method for you will be determined by your hairline, your areas of concern, your personal aesthetic goals, and the expert opinion of your surgeon.

Brow Lift Surgical Details

A brow lift is performed under local or general anesthesia. The type of incision and location will be pre-determined by the technique of brow lift you will be getting, but general options are along the scalp; above the forehead; the side of the head; within the creases of the forehead, or in the upper eyelids. A brow lift takes 1 to 2 hours and is an outpatient surgery. At Regency, our surgeons are careful to make the smallest incisions possible to minimize the visibility of scars.

Recovery

After your brow lift, the treated area will be dressed to reduce post-operative swelling and help with healing. This dressing will need to stay in place for about two days. Stitches can be removed in 7 to 10 days. It is common for patients to take 1 to 2 weeks to recover, but you will be able to return to desk-type work in 3 to 5 days, with final results from the procedure being apparent in about four months.

During the first week, you may experience headaches, numbness, bruising, swelling, and nausea. You may be prescribed or recommended medications to help with this. You will be given home care instructions to help you during the recovery process, and our staff will be available to answer any questions you may have.

Results

Patients should have realistic expectations of what a brow lift will accomplish. After your treatment, you will enjoy a more refreshed and youthful appearance for many years. Your brow will continue to change with age, but will never be as severe as it was pre-treatment.
