What is a Brow Lift?
The brows are one of the most expressive areas of the face, showing surprise, anger, and many other emotions. Over time, your brows can start to sag. At the same time, your forehead may develop lines, wrinkles, and loose skin. A brow lift can rejuvenate your brows and forehead to restore a youthful, alert appearance.
What is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift is also called a forehead lift. This procedure uses hidden incisions to lift and tighten the brows and forehead. Drooping brows can make your eyes look hooded and tired. A brow lift corrects this issue and restores a natural-looking, youthful brow arch. It also addresses forehead wrinkles by lifting and tightening the skin. Unlike injectables, a brow lift can address wrinkles caused by skin laxity.
How Does a Brow Lift Work?
Dr. Rankin performs a brow lift by making an incision hidden within your hairline. The length of the incision depends on the details of your procedure. He will lift and tighten the skin and underlying structures to reverse signs of aging. A brow lift is the most effective procedure to address the upper part of the face. Dr. Rankin customizes each brow lift to achieve your desired results.
Can I Have Other Procedures With a Brow Lift?
People often combine a brow lift with an eyelid lift or blepharoplasty. This procedure addresses sagging eyelids and puffy undereye bags to provide brighter, youthful-looking eyes. When combined, these two procedures provide full rejuvenation of the upper face. A brow lift can also be combined with a facelift since a facelift only addresses the lower part of the face.

What is Recovery Like After a Brow Lift?
Swelling and bruising after your brow lift will improve steadily as you heal. Most people can return to light activities after one week. However, you should wait at least four weeks before resuming heavier activities. Your results will improve over the next few months as any residual swelling fades. Brow lift results can last fifteen years or more, although you will eventually start to see signs of aging return.
