Benefits of Getting a Brow Lift
Getting a brow lift is a great way to improve your appearance and make you look younger. The first benefit of a brow lift is that it makes you appear more cheerful, happy and upbeat. A sagging forehead and wrinkle lines will make you look tired, depressed, stressed out and even upset or irritated. Getting a brow lift will make your face reflect your inner feelings and will make your smile shine. People will feel more comfortable around you. Another benefit is that it makes you look younger. Brow lifts are a great anti-aging procedure. They will remove creases and wrinkles from your forehead. This will give you a more youthful look. A brow lift can also help you improve your vision. Drooping foreheads, eyebrows and eyelids can impair your eyesight but can be fixed with a brow lift. A brow lift will make you feel better about yourself and improve your self-confidence. It can reduce tension in your forehead muscles. It can help improve the placement of your eyebrows. The results last for a long time. Brow lifts can be combined with other surgical procedures. For example, you can do a brow lift and an eyelid lift at the same time. In addition, brow lifts can be customized according to your needs. Endoscopic and mini-lifts are also an option, besides full brow lifts. In order to ensure that no complications, such as scarring or infections, result from your brow lift, it is important to get your lift done by a board-certified plastic surgeon who is a member of various professional medical associations.

Read MoreWhich is Best For You?: Brow Lift vs. Blepharoplasty?
When age sets in, often it starts to manifest first around the eyes and in your brow area. For this, there are two distinct procedures that are known to dramatically reduce aging in the area – a brow lift and blepharoplasty. A brow lift is much the way it sounds. It can use both surgical and non-surgical means to lift the skin on your forehead and around the eyes upwards to dramatically reduce sagging and wrinkles in the area. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid repair, has a similar effect that can reduce sagging eyelids and wrinkles in your under-eye area. However, it is not so much about “which procedure is best?” but rather “which procedure is right for your needs?” Complimentary Procedures Often instead of choosing one or the other, brow lifts and blepharoplasty are done together because they are highly complementary procedures. The brow lift can help reduce the amount of wrinkles around your eyes in the brow area by lifting the skin upwards while blepharoplasty can help clean up any other sagging in the eye lid area. Typically choosing one or the other is the result from having more problems in one area than the other. If you don’t really have sagging eyelids but have brow creases that you don’t like, then obviously you will only want a brow lift. However, if you don’t have brow wrinkles that bother you, but are concerned about your sagging eyelids and wrinkles in the eye area, then you would only want to engage in a blepharoplasty. Often a brow lift is the preferable option since it can not only clear up any brow wrinkles, but it can also help to lift your upper eye lids, the real problem area around the eye, upwards as well. However, it doesn’t do much for under eye wrinkles. If you are concerned around your brow or eyelid area and wonder if you need one procedure more than the other, or even both, contact us...
Read MoreSigns You May Need a Brow Lift
What is a Brow Lift? A brow lift, or forehead lift, is a procedure to tighten and tone the sagging skin of the forehead, eyebrows, and upper eyelids. This results in a smoothing of the skin and a reduction of any fine lines and wrinkles that have formed over the years. Deep creases and wrinkles in the skin of the forehead can appear as early as your mid-30s and, combined with other signs of aging such as sagging skin around the eyebrows can leave result in you looking much older than you feel. Is a Brow Lift the Right Choice? A brow lift may be the right choice for you if you have noticed an increase in fine lines and wrinkles across your forehead. It should also be a consideration if the brow line itself has begun to sag or your eyes appear ‘tired’ due to puffy or heavy eyelids. If this sounds like you, then a brow lift may be the ideal option. While sagging eyelids are often addressed by a separate procedure call an eyelid lift (blepharoplasty), it’s possible that a brow lift will improve the appearance of sagging eyelids by lifting the skin enough that blepharoplasty becomes unnecessary. Brow lifts are less invasive than full facelifts, leaving you with less recovery time and a more relaxed, youthful appearance. Since the brow line is not specifically addressed during other facial rejuvenation procedures like facelifts, and nonsurgical options are unlikely to restore the youthful, alert appearance of your face, a separate brow lift may be the best option for you. Even when performed completely on its own, a brow lift will help restore your face to a smoother, younger look by opening your expressions and giving you a forehead that compliments your other facial features. If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your forehead, brow line, or eyelids and think that a brow lift may be the right option for you, contact us at West Maple Plastic Surgery...
