Planning Your Brow Lift Surgery

What is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift (also known as a forehead lift) elevates the eyebrows and smooths forehead lines by removing excess skin and tightening the muscles. The procedure can restore a youthful, refreshed look and correct drooping or sagging brows.

How Long Does My Brow Lift Last?

The effects of a brow lift can last for 5 to 10 years, depending on factors like age, skin type, and lifestyle. While the procedure offers long-term results, some individuals may require touch-ups in the future.
