Brow lift is desirable if your forehead sags or your brow hangs too low or too close to your eye. If you have deep vertical furrows beneath the eyebrows, they may be improved with a brow lift. The desired result is a more youthful and restful appearance of the forehead and upper eyelids.
The procedure is done as an outpatient under a local I.V. sedation anesthetic in our office operative suite.
Initial discomfort is easily controlled with oral medication and sutures are removed within 7-10 days. Patients are usually socially acceptable in 12 days. Most swelling and bruising is gone between 7-10 days. Other surgeries which may enhance results are lower or upper lid blepharoplasty, face lift or facial implants.
