With brow lift surgery, you can raise or recontour the position of drooping eyebrows and revitalize the upper face and eyelids.
One of the most common signs of facial aging is the skin’s gradual loss of elasticity, which can cause it to sag and lose its youthful firmness. These issues often become most noticeable around the upper face, resulting in drooping eyebrows, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles. With a brow lift performed by one of our skilled oculofacial plastic surgeons at EltraSelf, you can lift your eyebrows and tighten your loose, sagging skin.
A brow lift is a surgical procedure performed to raise the position of the eyebrows. Brow lift can be done for a functional reason to improve the visual field or for aesthetic rejuvenation. This results in improved eyebrow symmetry and facial proportions. Overall, a quality brow lift leaves the entire upper face area looking more youthful and refreshed and can reduce hooding of the eyelids which can restrict peripheral vision.
There are several common types of brow lift surgery, each of which offers its own pros and cons. Your surgeon will examine your face and hairline and discuss your goals with you to recommend the right procedure for you:
This aesthetic procedure is performed through incisions in the hairline. Your surgeon may use an endoscopic camera for dissection, and then the brow is recontoured and lifted with sutures and/or implants. Endo-brow is minimally invasive, often scarless approach for brow lifting that can achieve long-lasting natural results.
Often called an open brow lift, the coronal brow lift requires one long incision from ear to ear. Through the incision, any loose muscles in the brow area can be removed or debulked. This technique also makes it simpler to remove excess skin, resulting in a tightened, smoother upper face.
A direct brow lift is a procedure performed by removing skin from directly above the eyebrows. This technique is most commonly used in cases of facial paralysis.
Also known as a lateral brow lift, the temporal brow lift is a procedure used to adjust and lift the outer third of the eyebrow. A temporal lift will tighten the muscles around the temples, forehead, and outer brow to create a more youthful appearance.
Browpexy is a brow lift technique that is frequently combined with upper blepharoplasty to lift both the brows and eyelids. This procedure is performed using a suture suspension of the brow to the underlying bone, which elevates and stabilizes the brow.
If you’re an adult dealing with brow drooping or hooded eyelids, you could be a good candidate for a brow lift.
