Brow Lift Surgery in Charlotte, NC

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a powerful surgical procedure that rejuvenates the forehead, eyebrows, and often the upper eyelids. At Andrea Garcia, MD in Charlotte, NC, this procedure helps patients achieve a more youthful, refreshed appearance.

Benefits of a Brow Lift

• Reduces sagging in the forehead area
• Lifts drooping eyebrows
• Minimizes frown lines and forehead wrinkles
• Creates a more awake, alert look
• Can improve vision obstructed by sagging brows

Candidates for Brow Lift Surgery

Ideal candidates for a brow lift include men and women experiencing sagging in the upper face due to aging or genetics. This procedure can help those with a perpetually tired or angry expression achieve a more naturally pleasant look.

Brow Lift Techniques

Endoscopic Brow Lift

This minimally invasive technique uses a small camera and specialized instruments inserted through short incisions in the scalp. It allows for precise tissue repositioning with potentially reduced recovery time and scarring.

Open Brow Lift

An open approach may use incisions at the hairline or farther back on the scalp. This technique allows for direct access to forehead tissues for precise repositioning.

Recovery After Brow Lift Surgery

Patients can expect some bruising and swelling for the first few weeks after surgery. Most feel comfortable returning to work and daily activities after 7-14 days. Full results become apparent as swelling subsides over several weeks to months.

Complementary Procedures

A brow lift is often combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures like facelift or eyelid surgery for comprehensive results. Non-surgical options like BOTOX injections can also enhance and maintain brow lift results.
