Enhancing Your Expressions with a Refreshed Brow Line
A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure designed to correct sagging brows, forehead creases, hooding over the eyes, and forehead furrows and frown lines. Aging can cause the soft tissues of the forehead and brow to descend, resulting in a tired or concerned appearance. By lifting and repositioning the brow, this procedure restores a youthful and refreshed look.
Your brow lift journey begins with a detailed consultation where we discuss your aesthetic goals and examine the brow and forehead region. This initial evaluation is crucial for understanding your expectations and planning the most effective treatment approach.
Based on your individual facial anatomy and desired outcomes, we design a tailored treatment plan. Our approach aims to achieve a balanced and rejuvenated appearance that respects the natural contours of your face.
The brow lift can be performed using general anesthesia or a combination of local anesthesia and sedation. Various surgical approaches may be used, including incisions above the eyebrow, within a forehead crease, along the temples, or spaced throughout the hairline. Commonly, 2-3 cm incisions are made within the hair-bearing scalp to camouflage them. During your consultation, your surgeon will determine the most suitable technique for your aesthetic goals.
Following the procedure, patients may experience swelling, bruising, and numbness, which typically resolve within one to two weeks. Discomfort can be managed with medication. Bandages are removed a day after surgery, and sutures and staples are usually removed at the one-week follow-up appointment. Subsequent follow-ups will assess incision lines and the overall improvement from the surgery.

Following brow lift surgery, patients can expect some degree of swelling, bruising, and numbness. Bruising and swelling typically take one to two weeks to resolve. Generally, any discomfort that patients experience can be managed with medication. Bandages applied after surgery are typically removed a day after surgery, while sutures and staples are typically removed at your one week follow up appointment. At subsequent follow up appointments the incision lines will be assessed, and photographs will be taken to assess improvements from surgery.
Although rare, there are always risks with surgery. Dr. Song aims to provide you with only the best possible outcome with your procedure, but some potential issues are:
General anesthesia or a combination of local anesthesia and sedation may be used for the surgery. There are multiple possible surgical approaches when performing a brow lift, these can vary from incisions directly above your eyebrow, within a forehead crease, along your temples, or spaced throughout the hairline. Most commonly, your surgeon will use 2-3 cm incisions within the hair-bearing scalp where the incisions are entirely camouflaged. During your consultation your surgeon will help determine which technique is most suited for your aesthetic goals.
If you have noticed you look tired even after being well-rested, or even feel as though your vision may start to be obscured, the procedure may be appropriate for you. Patients seeking brow lift are generally aiming to improve sagging eyebrows, forehead creases or furrows, hooding above the eyes. During the consultation, our expert surgeon will examine your areas of concern and discuss your goals to help determine if the forehead lift is the right procedure for you.
If you are undergoing a lower facelift and there is expected to be a significant amount of tissue repositioning in a vertical vector, your surgeon may speak to you about performing a concurrent brow lift procedure. Similarly, a brow lift may be recommended together with an upper lid blepharoplasty depending on the degree of upper eyelid skin redundancy and brow descent.
The brow lift procedure, also known as a forehead list, is a surgery designed to address a sagging brow, forehead creases, hooding over the eyes, and forehead furrows and frown lines. During aging, the soft tissues of the forehead and brow descend and droop, resulting in a tired, concerned, and even angry appearance. By lifting and repositioning the brow into a favorable position, a brow lift can address these concerns to restore brow architecture and a youthful, refreshed appearance.
