Have The Years Taken Their Toll On Your Forehead and Brows?

Forehead Lift – Improving The Look of Forehead Wrinkles

If a sagging brow line, drooping eyelids or forehead wrinkles are keeping you from the confidence you once had, a forehead lift (or brow lift) may be the key to rejuvenating the skin on the upper half of the face. A forehead lift is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting gravity’s effects on the forehead, brows, and eyelids. If you’re looking to take years off of your face’s appearance with results that last for a long time, a forehead lift may be right for you.

How Does A Forehead Lift Work?

A forehead lift is a procedure aimed at relaxing or changing the skin and muscle structure of the forehead, creating a younger, smoother, more symmetrical appearance in the upper half of the face. In this procedure, your surgeon will stretch the sagging skin on the forehead and reconnect the tissue on certain parts of the hairline by sewing the incisions together in a discreet place. The entire process takes only a few hours and patients will be able to be home that night to recover.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Forehead Lift?

Typical candidates are in good general health and are looking to reverse or slow down one or more of the following characteristics:

  • Sagging eyebrows
  • Heavy, sagging eyelids
  • Deep lines on the forehead
  • Excess tissue around the eyelids
  • Breathing problems in the nose
  • Furrowed brows

If any of these sound like you and are preventing you from full confidence in your own skin, Longwood Plastic Surgery is here to help. Our team of experienced board-certified surgeons can meet with you and help you decide on a plan to achieve the younger look you’re after.

What Results Will I See?*

Patients report a more youthful-looking forehead and brow area with fewer wrinkles and a rejuvenated eye and brow. Some even report looking more well-rested. Procedures are known to produce results that can reverse years of aging with long-lasting results. Although patients will see noticeable results after a few weeks, targeted results are typically achieved within 2-3 months. While some choose to undergo the same procedure years later, most are satisfied with the results for years to come.

What is the Recovery Like?*

While surgical, a forehead lift is an outpatient procedure, meaning you’ll be home that night. Patients are advised to not work for 7-10 days after the procedure. Avoid strenuous activities and contact sports for 6 weeks. All signs of surgery will be healed within 2-3 months, depending on the intensity of the procedure. Your specialist will be able to provide more detailed aftercare instructions that are tailored to your specific surgery and aesthetic goals.
