Brow Lift Cosmetic Surgery

Patients who consider a brow lift are mostly over the age of 40 & have developed forehead wrinkles through the natural aging process. However a forehead lift can be considered by a person of any age who has developed wrinkles on the forehead through stress or over activity of underlying muscle & wishes to have a more vibrant youthful look.

What does the Brow Lift Procedure Involve?

In the past, brow lift plastic surgery was most commonly performed by making incisions on the forehead which would allow the cosmetic surgeon to remove excess fat, skin & muscle from the forehead.

However due to advances in endoscopic techniques, most cosmetic surgeons have now abandoned the older surgical techniques in favour of endoscopic brow lift surgery. Cosmetic surgeons can now perform the entire brow lift cosmetic surgery procedure by making a few tiny incisions (a few half inch incisions hidden behind the hairline) through which an endoscope is then passed to elevate the brows & smooth forehead wrinkles. Endoscopic forehead lift cosmetic surgery has proved to be particularly popular because it results in minimal visible scarring, has low complication rates & does not require any hair shaving.
