Brow Lift Overview

Transform Your Appearance with a Brow Lift

Brow lift surgery is a cosmetic surgery procedure offered by Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery in Jacksonville. The brow lift is a surgical procedure used to improve your appearance by tightening the skin and elevating the brow. The degree of improvement varies from individual to individual and is influenced by the physical traits of the patient’s skin, the structure of the brow, and the particular procedure selected by the surgeon based on the desired result and the patient.

Brow Lift Patient Testimonial

“The staff is extremely efficient and friendly, and the surgery facilities top-notch. This was my second procedure with PVPS. The first one was phenomenal, so I expected no less this time. I had a lateral brow lift and facial fat transfer from Dr. Sternberg, and am very pleased with the results so far. I am only on day two, but can see that the results will be just what I wanted. I have had very little pain or swelling. The nurse called today to check on me to make sure all was good. I would recommend PVPS for any cosmetic procedure.”

Brow Lift, Facelift, or Botox?

Many times, the effects of aging take place in the forehead region alone. If wrinkles, loose skin, and sagging eyebrows exist on the forehead, then a brow lift may be sufficient. For drooping jowls and wrinkles along the lower area of the face, then another procedure such as a full facelift may be worth consideration. Sometimes these procedures can even be combined for maximum results.
 
If you’re wondering if Botox® would be enough to address your aesthetic concerns, you may be right. Botox is a great non-surgical option that can improve the wrinkles and fine lines of the forehead. However, it will not lift the forehead and improve sagging and drooping features if they exist. If you’re contemplating a brow lift, you may want to try Botox first and see if the results satisfy your cosmetic goals. If Botox proves ineffective, then a brow lift will probably help in this area.

This can be discussed in detail during your initial consultation.

Brow Lift FAQ

Will I look “fake”?

Will there be visible scarring?

How does a brow lift affect my forehead appearance?

Will my brow lift results change over time?

What impact does a brow lift have on my eyebrows?

Will I look “fake”?

While a brow lift produces results that allow patients to appear more awake and alert, the results are often subtle. An experienced surgeon will work within the confines of a patient’s facial structure and skin tone to create natural results that avoid a “wide-eyed” or “hyper-alert” appearance.

Will there be visible scarring?

The incisions made during a brow lift procedure are usually well-concealed once they heal. Whether they are placed in the hairline or brow line, every effort is made to keep the incisions along the natural folds and hairline so they are not visible after surgery.

How does a brow lift affect my forehead appearance?

A brow lift can significantly alter the appearance of your forehead by smoothing out horizontal wrinkles and creases while elevating the brow. This not only enhances the overall aesthetics of your forehead but also creates a more balanced proportion between the upper face and the eyes. Discussing your specific concerns about your forehead with your surgeon can help determine the most effective techniques for achieving your desired look.

Will my brow lift results change over time?

Yes, while a brow lift provides long-lasting results, natural aging processes will continue. Factors such as skin elasticity, sun exposure, and lifestyle choices can influence how your brow area ages after surgery. Although the brow lift can set the clock back by several years, maintaining a proper skincare routine and considering non-surgical treatments over time can help preserve your results longer.

What impact does a brow lift have on my eyebrows?

A brow lift can reposition the eyebrows to a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing height, which can enhance your overall facial expression. This procedure can also help correct asymmetry between the eyebrows, providing a more balanced appearance. If you have specific concerns about your eyebrow shape or positioning, be sure to discuss them with your surgeon during your consultation for tailored advice.

What are the Surgical Techniques for a Brow Lift?

There are several techniques that can be considered during a brow lift procedure.

Eyebrow Incision brow lift

Also known as a “direct brow lift”, this approach places the incision in the natural crease of the upper eyelid. Depending on the structure of the brow, an incision can also be made at the brow hairline to complete this process. Weak and sagging skin and tissue will be lifted and re-attached to the brow bone. This approach does not affect the forehead, and works to treat a sagging eyebrow and eyelid.

Endoscopic brow lift

This approach provides a subtle change in the position of the eyebrows. It uses several small (one inch or smaller) incisions near the hairline of the forehead where an endoscope (specialized camera) is placed and surgical tools are used to elevate the eyebrows. The stitches are located inside the incision to help minimize scarring. While this technique is a common approach, sometimes the results can be unpredictable.  

Coronal brow lift

This approach places the incision lines several inches above the hairline of the head. These incisions are typically long, yet are still hidden by the patient’s hair. This technique re-positions the eyebrows by pulling them up to offer an alert and revitalized appearance. Sometimes hair will need to be removed during the incision closure process where the skin is re-attached. This particular approach does offer dramatic results, and in most cases actually re-positions the hairline higher.

What is Recovery Like After a Brow Lift in Jacksonville?

Each brow lift in Jacksonville is performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure in an accredited surgical facility. Depending on the approach, the surgery typically takes around two hours to complete. 

Patients can generally return to work and resume normal activities within a few days following surgery. You may feel that their new facial structure is not as symmetrical as it should be, nor how you anticipated. This is a common anxiety, but facial features will settle and take on a natural look within a few weeks. It may take several months for the optimal surgical results to take effect.
