Brow Lift in La Jolla, CA | Malone Facial Plastic Surgery

Understanding the Brow Lift Procedure

A brow lift is a surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the upper face by lifting the eyebrows and smoothing out frown lines. Also known as a forehead lift, this advanced technique restores a more youthful appearance by addressing sagging brow tissues and eliminating deep furrows.

Key Benefits of Brow Lift Surgery

• Restore a happier, more refreshed facial appearance
• Eliminate deep frown lines between eyebrows
• Create a smoother, more youthful upper face
• Brighten the eye area and reduce tired-looking expressions

Customized Brow Lift Techniques

Endoscopic Brow Lift

A minimally invasive technique using small incisions within the hair-bearing scalp. Specialized telescopes allow precise adjustment of underlying tissues with minimal bruising and swelling. This approach can be performed without general anesthesia, targeting forehead, temple, and upper eyelid areas.

Lateral Temporal Lift

Ideal for patients seeking a subtle lift of the outer eyebrow. This technique uses minimal incisions and specialized telescopes to provide gentle elevation with reduced recovery time.

Candidacy and Consultation

Ideal brow lift candidates are typically men and women in their 30s and beyond experiencing signs of aging in the upper face. During a personalized consultation, Dr. Malone evaluates individual facial anatomy and discusses treatment options tailored to specific aesthetic goals.

Potential Considerations

• Heavy or drooping eyebrows
• Sagging outer eyebrow creating a downward eye appearance
• Deep furrow lines between eyebrows
• Excess upper eyelid skin or "hooding"

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect minor discomfort and temporary swelling following the procedure. Most individuals return to normal activities within one week. Dr. Malone provides comprehensive post-operative guidance to ensure optimal healing and results.

Potential Risks

Like any surgical procedure, brow lifts carry potential risks including anesthesia reactions, infection, temporary numbness, and minimal scarring. Dr. Malone discusses these considerations thoroughly during the initial consultation.
