How can a Brow Lift help overcome facial ageing?

Faces all age differently, but eventually, all faces age.  This includes the brow area and upper third of the face. Whilst on the inside we might still FEEL young, our skin and other signs of facial ageing can give our years away.

A combination of genetics, gravity, lifestyle factors, sun and other environmental interactions can leave you looking older than you feel.

A brow lift may be the best procedure to combat upper facial ageing – especially if you have a heavy brow or hooded eyes.

It is often combined with an and/or a , and along with and chemical skin peels.

The key signs of ageing on a face are often sagging jowls, a wrinkled, furrowed brow, and deep lines and skin folds around the eyes, lips, neck and chin.

Are you a good candidate for a Brow Lift Surgery?

Note that brow asymmetry is normal and may sometimes worsen with age. Surgery MAY help rectify this condition but your brows will remain somewhat asymmetrical as all faces are asymmetrical and different from side to side.

Brow Lifts are popular for men and women and all genders. As we age, we lose elasticity in the tissues of our face. One consequence of this loss of elasticity is a descent or drooping of the brow.

If your brow looks low-set and your eyes are less visible than you desire, to book a consultation discussion with a leading London brow-lift surgery expert.

Sometimes a Blepharoplasty might be the best procedure for sagging eyelids or eyelid ptosis. But for ???droopy brow’ cases, a Brow Lift procedure may be the most appropriate strategy to rejuvenate the face.

The Brow Lift Procedure

These days, a brow lift is often performed using a telescope (endoscopic approach) in preference to a long scalp incision. The endoscopic approach may be equally successful and involves minimal surgical intrusion – just three to five small incisions hidden within the hairline. This varies between men and women none the least of male pattern baldness and the possibility of exposed incisions.

The exact of your brow is a very personal matter, and is also much influenced by gender and ethnic differences. We will support your decision with the most up to date practices and a depth of experience.

Using general anaesthetic, your operation will take in the order of 60 minutes. Each is customised.

A series of 10-15mm long may be placed either along the hairline or in the hair-covered skin of the scalp to gain access. An endoscope (mini video camera) might then used in conjunction with special to the forehead soft tissue and skin from the underlying bone down to the level of the eyebrows. The skin of the forehead and eyebrows is then surgically lifted.

After the brow lift, the newly relocated skin and tissue is held in place with a series of sutures (stitches) attached to the bone. These stitches – and any other "rejuvenating skin hitching" techniques – eventually dissolve OR may be as part of your post-op care. Your surgeon will be able to discuss different with you.

The best way to find out what you need is to or other brow and eyelid surgery expert. Direct surgery on your upper eyelids may become after a brow lift. OR you may benefit from eyelid lifting AND a brow lift. If you also have loose eyelid tissues, a Blepharoplasty may be more called for – either on its own as a sole procedure OR in with your Browlift.
