Over time, the natural aging process, stress, and environmental factors can cause the brows to sag, creating a tired or unhappy expression. A brow lift—or forehead lift—is a custom facial procedure to restore a lifted, refreshed look by smoothing forehead lines and repositioning the brows. Whether you have developed deep furrows, a heavy brow, or drooping skin affecting your upper eyelids, a brow lift can provide a more youthful and relaxed appearance.
Is It Time To Consider a Brow Lift?
A brow lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to elevate the eyebrows, smooth forehead creases, and reduce frown lines. By repositioning the brow, this surgery opens up the eye area, giving you a more awake and vibrant look. Dr. Paul Afrooz specializes in precision brow-lifting techniques that achieve natural-looking results, avoiding an overdone or surprised appearance.
How Can a Brow Lift Improve Your Appearance?
- Treats a Heavy, Sagging Brow – Lifts drooping brows that can make you look fatigued or aged.
- Softens Forehead Wrinkles – Reduces deep forehead lines and frown creases between the brows.
- Enhances the Eye Area – Creates a more open, refreshed look by reducing hooding over the eyes.
- Restores a More Youthful Expression – Helps you look more alert, rejuvenated, and approachable.
Types of Brow Lift Techniques—What’s Right for You?
Dr. Afrooz tailors each brow lift to the patient’s anatomy and aesthetic goals. Some of the most common techniques include:
- Endoscopic Brow Lift – A minimally invasive approach using small incisions and a tiny camera for precise lifting and minimal scarring.
- Temporal or Lateral Brow Lift – Focuses on elevating the outer portion of the brow for a more subtle, natural lift.
- Coronal Brow Lift – A traditional method that involves an incision across the scalp, ideal for patients with significant brow drooping.
- Trichophytic Brow Lift – Designed for those with a high hairline, this technique allows for brow elevation without raising the forehead too much.
What to Expect During Recovery
Recovery from a brow lift is typically uneventful—but the results are stunning. Mild swelling and bruising is to be expected in the first week, but most patients can return to social activities within 10 to 14 days. Dr. Afrooz provides personalized aftercare instructions and closely monitors healing to ensure a smooth recovery.
