The Forehead Lift

As we age, the eyebrows naturally begin to sag and descend. This downward shift can worsen the appearance of hooded upper eyelids, deepen forehead wrinkles, and contribute to a tired or even discouraged expression. Low brows often occur alongside eyelid concerns and may be treated in combination with blepharoplasty or a facelift for a more harmonious rejuvenation.

While a brow lift cannot stop the aging process, it can significantly soften its effects. By smoothing the forehead, tightening the underlying muscles, and elevating the brows to a more balanced and youthful position, brow lift surgery helps restore a refreshed and confident appearance.

The Forehead lift incision is placed along the front of your hairline where it will be well hidden as it heals. The brow lift surgery involves lifting the forehead skin, tightening the muscles or weakening other muscles to reduce deep wrinkles in your forehead or in between your eyebrows.

The eyebrows are raised to the desired position. Dr. Zakhary will then close the incision very carefully with absorbable stitches that usually dissolve naturally within 2 weeks. The incision typically heals very well and remains discreetly hidden in your hairline.

The recovery time from Brow lift surgery is approximately 2 to 3 weeks.

Scalp numbness, slight hairline hair loss along the incision, or itching of the forehead may be experienced after surgery. These usually resolve completely within a few weeks to months.

Forehead lift or Brow lift surgery is a beneficial cosmetic procedure that can be performed together with other cosmetic facial plastic surgery procedures, such as a blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), to enhance your overall youthful appearance.
