A brow lift is a surgical procedure that concentrates on restoring a youthful appearance above the eyes. The procedure addresses the forehead and eyebrow area and lifts the eye zone to create a refreshed, rejuvenated look.
If you are one of the countless people with a heavy or drooping brow and visible forehead creases and feel that people respond to you differently due to your appearance, it may be time to consider this facial rejuvenation surgery.
Most patients who can benefit from a brow lift are between 40 and 60 years old and in good general health. Some patients have inherited a heavy, overhanging brow as a family trait and want to enhance their facial appearance with a brow lift or forehead lift. You may be a candidate for this facial surgery if you struggle with any of the following:
Any facial surgery should be carefully planned and professionally performed. The results of the procedure will be visible for years. Dr. Sadrian is recognized as a premier, board-certified plastic surgeon, with a 5-star rating on realself.com – where real patients post reviews on plastic surgeons.
Dr. Sadrian has much to offer – he is certified in two medical specialties, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. His exceptional level of knowledge of facial muscular structure, along with his meticulous surgical techniques and warm, compassionate personality, have made him one of the most sought-after La Jolla area plastic surgeons in practice.
A brow lift involves a few options for incision placement based on the individual issues of the patient. Very small incisions are made, hidden in the hairline, so they are invisible. The size of the incisions and concealed location make it virtually impossible for visible scars to be left after the procedure.
During your brow lift San Diego patients' forehead and brow area are lifted by correcting the underlying muscles, lifting skin and tissue, and removing any excess to create a smoother, more youthful look to the upper facial area. The difference in your appearance can be surprising – while subtle, you are likely to get many comments about how great you look – but they won’t know you had surgery. At Sadrian Plastic Surgery, we focus on creating natural-looking facial enhancements.
A Brow Lift procedure offers a refreshed look by addressing sagging eyebrows and forehead lines. Your journey to revitalized aesthetics begins with the procedure, typically lasting around two to three hours. After a successful Brow Lift, your initial recovery phase might take up to two weeks. During this time, mild swelling and bruising may occur, gradually subsiding.
Around two to three months post-procedure, you'll notice significant improvements in your brow's position and the reduction of wrinkles. These enhancements will continue to refine over the next several months, with final results typically becoming beautifully evident around the six-month mark.
Recovery from a brow lift will vary from patient to patient but typically requires ten days to two weeks. While some pain and discomfort are normal, it is easily controlled with prescription medication.
You can expect to feel a tight sensation on your forehead and see some bruising and swelling, which can extend to the eyes or to the bridge of the nose. This typically recedes after about 48 hours. At Sadrian Plastic Surgery, we carefully monitor our patients after surgery and will see you several times in follow-up appointments to check on you and ensure all is proceeding as it should. We are always available for any questions or concerns.
A brow lift can significantly rejuvenate the upper face, but combining it with other surgical and non-surgical treatments can provide a more comprehensive transformation, creating a harmonious and refreshed appearance. Depending on your aesthetic goals, Dr. Sadrian may recommend pairing your brow lift with one or more of the following complementary procedures:
Brow lifts and eyelid surgery are often performed together to enhance the area around the eyes. While a brow lift elevates the brows and smooths forehead wrinkles, eyelid surgery removes excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids, addressing droopy lids or under-eye bags. This combination can restore a youthful, rested look to the entire eye area.
A facelift targets the mid and lower face, making it an ideal complement to a brow lift for those seeking complete facial rejuvenation. Together, these procedures address sagging skin and wrinkles across the face and neck, achieving a balanced, natural-looking lift that enhances overall symmetry and reduces signs of aging.
If you have loose skin or excess fat around the neck and jawline, a neck lift can enhance your brow lift results by refining the contours of your neck and chin. When performed together, a brow lift and neck lift can create a smoother transition between the facial features, giving you a more youthful profile.
Botox injections can help maintain the results of your brow lift by softening expression lines that may develop over time. Botox is also used to enhance the brow’s shape by relaxing the muscles that pull the brows downward, providing a temporary lift and minimizing forehead wrinkles.
Dermal fillers can be used to complement a brow lift by adding volume to areas like the temples, cheeks, and under the eyes. Fillers smooth deep lines and restore fullness, creating a more balanced facial appearance that further accentuates the effects of a brow lift.
Laser treatments, such as fractional laser resurfacing, can address skin texture issues, fine lines, and sun damage. Laser skin resurfacing around the forehead, eyes, and face enhances the results of a brow lift by promoting collagen production and tightening the skin, giving your face a fresh, revitalized glow.
A chemical peel can improve skin tone and texture by removing damaged outer layers of skin. When combined with a brow lift, this non-surgical treatment can minimize pigmentation issues and fine lines, further enhancing the youthful appearance achieved with surgery.
Microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) stimulates collagen production and improves skin elasticity. This treatment works well in conjunction with a brow lift to enhance skin health, reduce wrinkles, and achieve an overall rejuvenated look.
A coronal brow lift with Dr. Sadrian costs between $7,000 and $7,500, while a lateral brow lift costs between $7,800 and $8,500. During your initial consultation, we will discuss cost estimates and give you a better understanding of what is included, as well as what your financing options are.
Sadrian Plastic Surgery works with CareCredit® and Alphaeon® to provide you with convenient financing for all of our cosmetic surgeries and procedures, including brow lifts. When you schedule your La Jolla cosmetic surgery consultation, our Patient Coordinator can answer any questions you have regarding CareCredit®, Alphaeon®, or other surgical financing options.
Recent innovations in technology and techniques in cosmetic surgery have led to a less invasive approach for a brow lift or forehead lift, an endoscopic brow lift. This approach entails tiny incisions through which the endoscope is inserted. This surgical tool is a tiny camera with data revealed to our surgeon on a monitor, and the procedure is performed with very specialized surgical tools to restore smoothness to the brow while lifting the eyebrows and creating a more youthful look for your eyes.
Brow lift results can last up to 10 to 15 years, depending on factors such as your age, skin quality, and lifestyle. While the natural aging process will continue, maintaining a healthy skincare routine and considering non-surgical treatments like Botox can help prolong the youthful appearance achieved by the brow lift.
Yes, a brow lift can be combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or a facelift, to achieve more comprehensive results. Combining procedures can create a balanced and harmonious appearance, addressing multiple areas of concern in one surgical session.
A brow lift specifically targets the upper facial area, including the forehead and brows, to lift and smooth wrinkles and lines. A facelift, on the other hand, addresses the mid and lower face, tightening sagging skin and improving jawline definition. These procedures can be performed together for a full-face rejuvenation.
Most patients experience mild discomfort and tightness in the forehead area following a brow lift, but severe pain is uncommon. Any discomfort can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain medication or a prescription provided by Dr. Sadrian. Swelling and bruising will gradually subside within a few weeks.
When performed by an experienced surgeon like Dr. Sadrian, a brow lift will not alter your eye shape. The goal of a brow lift is to elevate the brows and smooth the forehead without affecting the natural contours of your eyes. The result should be a more refreshed, open appearance that complements your facial features.
The decision to undergo a cosmetic procedure is extremely personal. If you are considering an enhancement, you want to be confident that your results will appear fresh and natural – and like you. Dr. Sadrian is among the finest plastic surgeons practicing in the San Diego area and has achieved acclaim for consistently achieving natural-looking results. Schedule an appointment to learn more.
