Does your face reveal stress, worry, and age that you don’t feel? Deep creases or horizontal lines on the bridge on your forehead? How about those two lines between your eyebrows that show up if you get too deep in thought? Eyebrow surgery will target these features to give you a refreshed, youthful appearance and boost your self-confidence.

A brow lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that smooths out forehead wrinkles, lifts sagging eyebrows, and eliminates frown lines. The result is a more alert, rested, and youthful appearance.

As we age, skin loses elasticity, or the ability to snap back. The combined effect of the sun’s damage and gravity’s pull creates natural changes to your body and are especially noticeable on your face. Dr. Hamid Massiha performs brow lift procedures that reposition the forehead to raise the brow and correct many of these changes.

The brow lift techniques at our surgery center can improve:

• Wrinkles, creases, or horizontal lines in your forehead or the bridge of your nose
• Vertical ‘frown lines’ between your eyebrows, known as the 11s, that make you look serious or angry
• Droopy or saggy eyebrows (hooded eyes) that make you look sad or tired
• Naturally low or heavy brow

A brow lift is designed to correct sagging skin, muscle deformities, or uneven or lopsided appearance in the brow area. It is not meant to reduce wrinkles or fine lines on the forehead. It won’t change the shape of your eyes or fix baggy eyelids. The brow lift, also referred to as a forehead lift, forehead rejuvenation, or browplasty, is sometimes combined with other facial cosmetic procedures to help achieve additional goals.

Do you think wrinkles, creases, or sagging skin on your forehead are giving you a tired, aged look? A brow lift may be your answer to achieving a more youthful, refreshed appearance. The best candidates for brow lift surgery are non-smokers who do not have any serious eye conditions or conditions that make healing more difficult. Finding out how suitable you are for a brow lift will depend on information specific to you. Your surgeon will discuss your medical history and expectations for a brow lift at the initial complimentary consultation.

To learn whether a brow lift can help you, the first step is to schedule a complimentary consultation with Dr. Massiha. At the consult, the surgeon will talk about the procedure, your goals, other options, and the potential risks. Be prepared to discuss your medical history and expectations for the surgery. Ask your surgeon to see brow lift before and after images. This is the time to get your questions answered.

If you decide to continue care after the consultation, Dr. Massiha and your healthcare team will start developing your unique treatment plan. They need to get the best idea of your health to ensure your safety for the procedure. Tests, images, and x-rays may be ordered according to your age, health, and other individual needs.

Once the evaluation is complete, your surgeon will recommend a unique comprehensive surgical treatment plan tailored to achieve your goals. Dr. Massiha performs brow lifts alone or in combination with a wide range of comprehensive cosmetic and rejuvenation services

Make sure to ask any questions you have. Don’t be afraid to share your thoughts with your surgeon and healthcare team. If you do not understand something, tell your healthcare team, so they can find another way to explain it. If you are unsure of what questions to ask, see this checklist recommended by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. It can help guide you during conversations with your surgeon.

Dr. Massiha will make small incisions in your hairline or on the forehead to access the eyebrow tissues. He will then lift and move your eyebrow and tighten any loose or sagging skin. After surgery, you might experience some swelling and bruising around your forehead and eyes. This should be gone within two weeks. There may be some discomfort or tightness around the incision site that over the counter or prescribed pain medication can help with.

Most patients return to work and normal activities 5 to 10 days after the procedure. Varying levels of numbness in the brow and incision area that don’t affect activity can be felt for 9 to 12 months and sometimes longer after surgery. Dr. Massiha’s dedication to patient care doesn’t end with the surgery. He and his team provide comprehensive post-operative care and follow-up visits to ensure your smooth recovery and optimal results.

Patients are often pleased, and privately amused, that family and friends compliment them, commenting they can’t quite pinpoint the difference. You will welcome the dramatic revitalization that these subtle, natural changes an eyebrow lift offer.

The cost of eyebrow lift surgery depends on your surgeon’s experience and reputation. It is also influenced by other specifics including how complex the procedure being used is and what fees are required, like anesthesia and facility fees. Many of these choices are made according to your medical history and your expectations. You and your surgeon will talk about these choices during your consultation and discussions before surgery. Dr. Massiha will be able to provide a price quote with your treatment plan so you can budget the cost of your procedure.
