A forehead lift, also known as a brow lift, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to reduce forehead wrinkles, lift sagging eyebrows, and rejuvenate the upper face. This procedure restores a youthful, refreshed, and more alert appearance by tightening the skin and underlying tissues of the forehead and brow area.Forehead lift surgery is considered safe when performed by a qualified and experienced cosmetic surgeon. As with any surgery, there are minor risks such as scarring, infection, or temporary numbness, which will be discussed during your consultation.
Why Consider a Forehead Lift?
As we age, the skin loses elasticity, causing eyebrows to droop and forehead lines to deepen. This can make you look tired, angry, or older than you feel. A forehead lift can:
Smooth deep forehead creases and frown lines
Raise drooping eyebrows for a youthful look
Improve symmetry of the brows
Open up the eye area, making you look more awake and refreshed
