An eyebrow lift, also known as a brow lift or forehead lift, is a surgical procedure that elevates drooping eyebrows and smooths forehead wrinkles. This procedure can create a more youthful and alert appearance by repositioning the eyebrows to a more aesthetically pleasing position.
The procedure can be performed using various techniques, including endoscopic methods that use small incisions hidden in the hairline. The surgeon lifts and repositions the eyebrow tissues and may remove excess skin.
Recovery typically takes 1-2 weeks, with most swelling and bruising resolving within the first week. Patients can usually return to work within 7-10 days.
Eyebrow lift surgery provides long-lasting results that can make you appear more youthful and refreshed. The results typically last 10-15 years.
