Brow Lift

January 28, 2009

Women call a brow lift by many different names. A few of these are eyebrow lift, coronal lift, temporal lift and even an upper face lift. As we age, our brows tend to sag, so to speak, from the lines and wrinkles in our forehead. These are also caused from laughing, smiling and frowning.  We should have an arch but most of us don’t even come close.

By having surgery for a brow lift, it removes the lines and wrinkles that make our face look tired and worn so that we have a fresher younger look about us once again. This surgery is done in several different stages depending on whether or not the eyelids need to be worked on as well.

Having surgery on your forehead can get rid of wrinkles and fix your saggy eyebrows. There are other options that can be considered if surgery is not absolutely necessary. You can have Botox injections, laser resurfacing or even collagen implants.

If you opt for the surgery, there are 3 different techniques that can be used, depending on what your needs are. These are the coronal, mid-forehead and the direct technique. Although the healing period will vary depending on the technique that you have done, with all of them there will be swelling and some pain involved.

After having the surgery done, you may find that you have to change your hairstyle since the hairline may be moved. You may have a loss of feeling, and balding is an issue, so take caution. There could also be some itching at the site, some muscle weakness that should go away and redness of the scar from the surgery that lasts a little longer than normal.

You do need to be aware of overcorrection. If the doctor removes too much of the skin, it could result in hair loss, a big scar and very poor healing. Do a lot of research and ask a lot of questions before you make the final decision on having this type of surgery done. Know what your risks are and make sure that this is what you want to do.
