BROW LIFT

What is Brow Lift?

A Brow Lift is a plastic surgeryl procedure that elevates and restructures the eyebrow to give it a more enhanced and shapely look. With the help of this procedure, Wrinkles around the eyebrow and forehead area may also be reduced to a minimum.

The eyebrow is very important for it is a tool in unveiling our emotions such as happiness, anger, surprise, curiosity, concern, and fear. Sagging eyebrows can give us a very stressful look that can lead to the “hooding” of the upper eyelid. While there is a significant amount of cases that blame the eyelids as the main problem, more often than not, the sagging of the brows actually causes the eyelids to look excessive.

Brow Lift may lessen the need for getting rid of that excessive eyelid skin. The sulcus of the upper eyelid is exposed during the Brow Lift surgery to give the patient a more youthful and attractive look. Upper and/or Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty or Facial Resurfacing and Face Lift are additional procedures you might want to try to give your forehead or brow area a finer look.
