Understanding the Brow Lift Procedure
A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce visible signs of aging in the forehead region. This precision treatment addresses deep horizontal creases, frown lines, and repositions the eyebrows to create a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
