Forehead and Brow Lift
Those horizontal lines on our foreheads or creases above our noses can make us look tired, sad, angry, or older than we truly are. Those wrinkles are intensified by sun exposure, heredity, and weight gain or loss. A forehead lift can take years – even a decade – off our faces by tightening and lifting the skin on our foreheads, thereby eliminating wrinkles and expression lines. The end result is a more refreshed, youthful appearance.
In a forehead lift, an incision is first made above the hairline to avoid visible scarring. The surgeon then removes the excess tissue and muscle that makes the brow sag and lifts and tightens the skin. During endoscopic forehead lift, usually chosen by younger patients who are just developing brow wrinkles, an endoscope (miniature camera) is inserted below the skin and used to help lift and tighten the underlying muscles. Forehead lifts are often combined with other facial cosmetic procedures, including face lifts, collagen and BOTOX® Cosmetics injections, or eyelid surgery.
