Brow Lift

Awaken Your Eyes

The forehead and brow area are among the first facial regions where signs of aging become noticeable. Deep lines, drooping eyebrows, and furrowed expressions can leave the face looking tired, stressed, or angry.

A brow lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to elevate the eyebrows and smooth the forehead, restoring a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

ARCmd in Weston specializes in this precise procedure, helping patients rejuvenate their look with subtle, natural results that enhance their overall appearance.

WHAT IS A

Brow Lift?

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a cosmetic surgery that elevates the brow and smooths out the forehead area. This procedure is typically performed to correct drooping eyebrows, deep horizontal creases on the forehead, and frown lines between the brows. Depending on the technique used, incisions are either hidden within the hairline or made endoscopically with minimal scarring.

Advantages

Lifts sagging eyebrows for a more alert, youthful appearance.
Reduces deep horizontal forehead lines.
Minimizes frown lines between the brows.
Opens up the eye area, making the eyes appear brighter.
Offers long-lasting results.
Improves facial symmetry and balance.
Enhances self-confidence with a more refreshed look.

Target Concerns

A brow lift primarily addresses the aesthetic concerns that arise with aging in the upper third of the face, including:

Sagging or drooping brows. This can cause a tired or grumpy appearance.
Forehead wrinkles. Deep horizontal creases that are prominent with facial expressions.
Frown lines. Vertical lines between the eyebrows, often caused by repetitive facial movements.
Heavy upper eyelids. Drooping brows can contribute to hooded upper eyelids.

By lifting and tightening the skin in this area, a brow lift creates a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

What to Expect During Treatment

Brow lifts are typically performed under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation. Depending on the patient’s needs, either a traditional or endoscopic brow lift will be used. The traditional method involves a longer incision along the hairline, while the endoscopic method uses small incisions and a camera to guide the surgeon during the procedure. The surgery usually lasts between 1 to 2 hours, and patients can return home the same day.

How Long Do Results Last?

The results of a brow lift can last for many years, with most patients enjoying a rejuvenated look for 10 to 15 years. Aftercare tips to help maintain results include:

Protect your skin from sun exposure by wearing sunscreen and hats.
Avoid smoking to prevent premature aging.
Stay hydrated and maintain a consistent skincare routine to keep the skin healthy and firm.

WHO ARE THE IDEAL

Candidates?

The ideal candidate for a brow lift is someone who is in good health and looking to correct the effects of aging in the upper face. Candidates should have realistic expectations and a desire to address issues like sagging brows, forehead wrinkles, or frown lines. A consultation at ARCmd will determine if a brow lift is the right solution for your aesthetic goals.
