Ideal Candidates for Brow Lift Surgery

- Eliminate a perpetually tired or angry expression
- Achieve a more naturally pleasant appearance
Brow Lift Techniques
Endoscopic Brow Lift
This minimally invasive technique uses a small camera and specialized instruments inserted through short incisions hidden in the scalp. Benefits may include reduced recovery time and minimal scarring.
Open Brow Lift
This method may use incisions at the hairline (trichophytic) or on top of the scalp (coronal). It allows for direct visualization and precise repositioning of forehead tissues.
The choice between endoscopic and open techniques depends on factors like facial aging, hairline position, and forehead shape. Dr. Garcia and Dr. Surowitz will recommend the best approach for each patient's unique needs.
Recovery and Results
Brow lift patients can expect:
- Some bruising and swelling in the first few weeks
- Incision healing within 10 days
- Return to work and daily activities after 7-14 days
- Immediate visible improvements
- Final results apparent once swelling subsides
Complementary Procedures
A brow lift may be combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures such as:
- Facelift
- Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)
- BOTOX® Cosmetic for a "chemical brow lift"
