As you age, muscle tone diminishes
in the forehead causing your eyebrows
to droop and making the eyes appear
smaller, more tired or sleepier than
they actually are. A forehead lift
or browlift is an operation that raises
the forehead skin and eyebrows for
a fresh, youthful look.
The procedure not only improves the
appearance of the eyes, but also eliminates
or diminishes the age-related furrows,
creases and frown lines above and between
the eyebrows.
Forehead lifts can be done in multiple ways.
The standard coronal browlift uses an incision in the hair-bearing
scalp to excise skin as the brows are lifted. The endoscopic
browlift accomplishes a similar result with three to four
small incisions in the hairline area. A temporal browlift
can also be used; this operation involves smaller excisions
of skin at the temple area to lift the lateral part of the
eyebrows.
The forehead
lift is often combined with other facial procedures such as
the eyelid lift, facelift, or injectable fillers.
The
best way to find out if you are
a good candidate for a brow lift
is to contact
us and schedule a consultation
with Dr. Goodman. |
