Brow Lift in Plano, TX

What is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift is a cosmetic procedure to help raise the eyebrows. This will help improve the appearance of the forehead, brow, and eye area. A brow lift is often done at the same time as other facial cosmetic procedures like a face lift.

A brow lift is also known as:

• Forehead lift
• Forehead rejuvenation
• Browplasty
• Temporal brow lift

Why is a Brow Lift Performed?

A brow lift is a common surgery. It is performed for a number of reasons, but mostly to improve the overall look of your face for a more rested appearance.

A brow lift:

• Corrects sagging eyebrows
• Fixes hooded eyes
• Fixes uneven eyebrows
• Eliminates creases or wrinkles in your forehead
• Fixes the horizontal lines across your forehead and on the bridge of your nose
• A permanent solution
• Helps you feel more youthful
• Gives you a more awake appearance

How Does a Brow Lift Differ from Injectables?

There are several options to give your forehead a more rested appearance. A brow lift with injectables may offer some of the same benefits as a surgical brow lift, but with less lasting effects.

Injectables:

• Also help reduce wrinkles
• Can elevate the height of your eyebrows
• Paralyzes or relaxes the muscles in your face
• Offer several brands or types depending on your preference
• Can help you look younger
• May be an option if you wish to avoid surgery
• Require repeat treatments
• Results are not permanent

Some common types of brow lifts include:

• Small incisions behind the hairline along your scalp where the surgeon uses a scope to view tissues and make adjustments (endoscopic lift)
• Small incisions along the hairline near the temples (temporal brow lift)
• Removing skin above the eyebrows (direct brow lift)
• Incision across the top of head often along the hairline (classic lift, coronal lift, open brow lift, hairline brow lift)
