Understanding Brow Lift Surgery in Houston

A brow lift serves to improve the appearance of the forehead, eyebrows, and upper eyelids. As individuals age, the facial tissues begin to sag, causing the eyebrows to appear lower and creating a more aged appearance around the eyes.

What is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure designed to address several age-related concerns:

Repositioning low or sagging eyebrows
Smoothing forehead wrinkles and lines
Correcting frown lines between the eyebrows
Potentially improving vision obstructed by excess skin

Surgical Techniques

Lift Plastic Surgery offers multiple brow lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs. The most common approach is the endoscopic brow lift, which involves:

2-4 small incisions within the hairline
Using a camera and specialized instruments to reposition forehead and eyebrow tissues
Carefully lifting tissues to a more youthful position
Disrupting muscles that cause wrinkle formation

Candidacy for Brow Lift Surgery

Ideal candidates for brow lift surgery are individuals experiencing:

Drooping eyebrows
Excess skin on the upper eyelids
Deep forehead wrinkles
Vision impairment due to sagging skin

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect some initial swelling and bruising following the procedure. Most individuals can return to normal activities within one week, with complete healing occurring over several weeks. A compression garment is typically recommended to minimize swelling and optimize results.
