How Can I Treat Sagging Forehead Skin?

As we age, the skin of the brow can fall, making people look older, tired, or even angry. A brow lift is an ideal way to undo this naturally-occurring process and give patients a more open and younger appearance. The skilled surgeons at Specialty Aesthetic Surgery have performed countless brow lifts with successful outcomes.

What Concerns Can A Brow Lift Address?

The soft tissues of the upper face can sag and wrinkle over time, presenting in several ways that contribute to an older or more closed off facial appearance. Many issues can be addressed with brow lift surgery including:

  • Forehead lines
  • Drooping upper eyelids
  • Low or sagging brows
  • Brow asymmetry
  • Loose, sagging forehead skin
  • Wrinkles between brows and between brows and cheeks

If you feel your appearance is currently affected by noticeable aging of the forehead and brows, brow lift surgery is the gold standard for achieving a fresher, more animated look.

Brow Lift Surgery at Specialty Aesthetic Surgery

A brow lift is typically done as an outpatient procedure under intravenous sedation or general anesthesia to eliminate any discomfort. Placement of incisions is carefully considered and incisions are usually made behind the hairline, allowing them to be easily concealed. The highly skilled surgeons use advanced endoscopic methods to ensure an optimal outcome with limited pain, scarring, or downtime.

After a short observation period, you’ll be ready to recover in the comfort of your own home. Patients are generally up and moving around on their own within 24-hours after surgery. Our surgeons typically recommend taking off 7-10 days from work to optimize healing and reduce stress or strain on incisions and sutures.

What Results Will I See?

Initial results are an immediate improvement in the forehead and upper eye area. Smoother forehead skin raised eyebrows and minimized frown lines will produce a more youthful, relaxed appearance. Full results will be seen a few weeks after surgery once the swelling subsides and incisions heal completely and are long lasting.

Is A Brow Lift Right For Me?

Only you can decide if a brow lift is right for you. But if you are bothered by forehead wrinkles or your eyebrows pushing down on your eyes, a brow lift at Specialty Aesthetic Surgery could be the right choice. Our team of trained plastic surgeons is adept at performing successful brow lift procedures, giving scores of happy patients a smoother, more youthful look by improving the appearance of the eyes and upper face.
