Brow Lift in Los Angeles

It used to be that cosmetic surgery was for the over 50 crowd. Patients waited until they looked awful and then asked for "the works". Their results were dramatic, but, unfortunately, everyone could tell they just had surgery. Today, nearly one-third of those seeking facial rejuvenation surgery are between 35 and 50 years old. Modern surgical techniques can give them beautiful, but natural-looking improvements.

Wrinkles and frown lines often first appear in the brow and forehead area. A forehead lift or brow lift in Los Angeles can smooth out the wrinkles and correct drooping brows and heavy lids to provide a younger, friendlier appearance. A brow lift can be performed alone or with other cosmetic procedures such as a facelift, eyelid surgery, or laser skin resurfacing.

The Procedure

We usually perform brow lift for our Los Angeles and Beverly Hills patients as an out-patient procedure under local anesthesia with deep sedation, or general anesthesia. The procedure may take 1 to 2 hours. With the classical or "open" method the incision is hidden just inside or by the hairline across the scalp and between the ears. Your surgeon lessens the appearance of wrinkles by removing selected muscles and releasing tissues, which cause the wrinkles. The eyebrows may also be elevated, and excess skin at the incision will be removed to allow a gentle redraping of your forehead skin.
