Revitalize Your Brow Line and Forehead

As we age, the brow and forehead area can begin to sag, creating an appearance that may not reflect how we truly feel. Drooping brows and deep forehead lines can make you look tired, angry, or upset. At Leong Facial Plastic Surgery, Dr. Paul Leong performs brow lifts to reposition the brow, smooth the forehead, and restore a youthful, refreshed look. This procedure is ideal for those seeking to soften their facial expressions and regain a more vibrant appearance.

What Does a Brow Lift Address?

The primary goal of a brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is to elevate the brow to its natural, youthful position, reducing deep forehead lines and creases. However, it’s important to note that brow lift surgery is not specifically designed to eliminate all horizontal forehead lines. For patients whose primary concern is smoothing forehead wrinkles, Botox® Cosmetic may be a more suitable option.

Many patients also experience difficulty applying makeup to their upper eyelids due to sagging skin, and a brow lift can correct this issue by lifting the skin above the eyes. To assess if you're a good candidate for this procedure, simply lift the skin above your eyebrows. If this action reduces the excess skin in your brow area, a brow lift may be right for you. A brow lift focuses on the upper third of the face. If you’re looking to improve the mid-face area, procedures such as a cheek lift or facelift may be more appropriate. Dr. Leong often recommends combining procedures to achieve comprehensive rejuvenation and the best results.

What to Expect During Your Brow Lift Consultation

During your initial consultation, Dr. Leong will thoroughly review your medical history and discuss whether a brow lift is the right procedure for you. Most brow lift patients are between 40 and 60 years old, but in some cases, younger patients with genetic predispositions to drooping brows can also benefit from this surgery. Open communication is a cornerstone of Dr. Leong’s practice, and your questions and concerns are always welcomed.

BOTOX® Cosmetic Brow Lift vs. Surgical Brow Lift

A BOTOX® Cosmetic brow lift offers a non-surgical solution to temporarily reduce lines and wrinkles, typically lasting 3 to 4 months. With careful injection techniques, Botox can also create a slight lifting effect for the brows. However, for more advanced cases of brow sagging and deep forehead creases, a surgical brow lift provides longer-lasting and more dramatic results.

It’s important to understand that not every patient with heavy brows is a candidate for brow lift surgery. If your primary concern is excess skin on the upper eyelids, upper blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) may be a more suitable option. Dr. Leong will help you explore the best approach for your specific needs during your consultation.

The Day of Your Brow Lift Surgery

On the day of your forehead lift, general anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort. Dr. Leong uses an advanced endoscopic technique for most brow lift procedures. This minimally invasive method involves making small incisions along the hairline, which are well-concealed. A tiny camera, or endoscope, is inserted through these incisions, allowing Dr. Leong to visualize the forehead muscles and tissue on a screen. He will then adjust and reposition the muscles and skin to lift the brow and smooth the forehead.

The endoscopic approach has many advantages, including reduced scarring, a quicker recovery period, and less post-operative discomfort. For some patients with very heavy brows or those wishing to raise their hairline, Dr. Leong may recommend an open brow lift, which involves a longer incision across the top of the head. However, most patients benefit from the endoscopic technique.

Recovery After a Brow Lift

The typical recovery period following a brow lift is around 14 days, though this can vary from patient to patient. Swelling and bruising are common and usually subside within 2 weeks. Pain is generally mild and can be managed with over-the-counter medications such as Tylenol, though stronger medications may be prescribed for the first few days post-surgery. Most patients are able to resume their normal activities within 10 to 14 days. While initial healing occurs quickly, full results may take up to 6 months as swelling continues to diminish. The results of your brow lift are long-lasting, but as aging naturally progresses, some minor sagging may eventually recur.
