Understanding Brow Lift Surgery in Houston

The face is often the first area to display visible signs of aging, particularly around the eyes. Aging can cause eyebrows to droop, creating an unintentional angry or tired expression. Factors like reduced skin elasticity and gravitational effects contribute to this change. In some cases, sagging skin can even obstruct vision by causing the upper eyelids to droop.

Benefits of Brow Lift Surgery

A brow lift surgical procedure can address multiple aesthetic concerns by:

Removing excess skin
Raising forehead and eyebrow position
Tightening underlying facial tissues
Producing a more youthful, revitalized appearance

Ideal Candidates for Brow Lift

Patients considering brow lift surgery typically want to achieve one or more of the following objectives:

Smooth forehead wrinkles
Eliminate upper eyelid hooding
Improve eyebrow shape and arch
Restore facial confidence

Surgical Procedure Details

The brow lift procedure is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes less than two hours. Dr. Patronella strategically places small incisions within the hairline to minimize visible scarring. During the surgery, excess skin is removed, and drooping muscles are lifted to a more attractive, natural position and carefully sutured.

Recovery and Results

Most patients can expect a two-week healing period for incisions to close and side effects to subside. Stitches are typically removed one week post-surgery, allowing patients to return to work and normal activities. Light makeup can help conceal residual bruising and swelling.

Long-Term Outcomes

Patients experience a rejuvenated upper facial appearance that complements natural contours. With proper skincare and a healthy lifestyle, brow lift results can be maintained for 10-12 years or potentially longer.
