A brow lift plastic surgery procedure can provide a significantly more refreshed and youthful look to the face by correcting the characteristics that cause a tired and aged appearance. Due to a loss of skin elasticity, sun damage and repeated muscle contraction, the brow begins to descend lower on the face and creases become etched along the forehead and between the brows causing the face to have an aged, fatigued and worried appearance.
Brow lift surgery provides the following benefits:
- Elevates the brows into a youthful position to give you a more refreshed look
- Smoothes out the lines that stretch across the forehead and the vertical lines between the brows
- Improves the appearance of sagging folds between the brows and lids
In an endoscopic brow lift procedure, your plastic surgeon will make very small incisions within the hairline. The endoscopic approach allows him to view the internal structures of the forehead so that the long incision commonly used in other brow lift methods is unnecessary. They then reposition the skin and underlying tissues and muscles of the forehead to smooth away expression lines and gently elevate the brows to give the face a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
The endoscopic brow lift procedure is completed in 1 hour under light sedation in our private AAAASF-certified surgery suite in Virginia Beach. Sutures are removed in 5-10 days and patients typically are able to return to work in 7- 10 days, while exercise may be resumed in about 2-3 weeks.
The endoscopic brow lift produces minimal bruising and swelling, and nearly undetectable scars. Though a brow lift alone can provide a significantly more refreshed and youthful look to the face, many patients choose to combine it with a facelift, neck lift, and/or eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to create a youthful look that appears natural and balanced.
During your cosmetic consultation with your plastic surgeon, they will evaluate your facial characteristics and listen to your goals in order to provide you with the surgical and non-surgical recommendations that will give you the most natural appearance.
