Brow lift surgery is a cosmetic procedure that involves lifting and repositioning the eyebrows to create a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. It can also help to correct eyebrow asymmetry or address sagging skin in the forehead area.
During a brow lift surgery, incisions are made either at the hairline or in the scalp, and the underlying tissue and muscles are repositioned to lift the eyebrows and smooth out wrinkles in the forehead. In some cases, a small camera may be used to assist with the surgery.
The specific technique used will depend on the patient’s individual needs and goals, as well as their anatomy. Brow lift surgery is typically performed on an outpatient basis, and recovery time varies depending on the extent of the surgery. It is important to discuss all options and potential risks with a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon before undergoing the procedure.
