What is a Brow Lift?
In men, the natural position of the eyebrow is slightly lower than in women. This leaves less leeway before droopy eyebrows affect the upper eyelids, not only drawing attention away from the eyes but also interfering with your peripheral vision. Droopy eyebrows in men are often a function as well as a cosmetic problem. There are, however, increasingly more men interested in facial plastic surgery today. Care is taken not to overpluck the eyebrows, as a high eyebrow can be feminizing.
The forehead and eyebrows make up the upper one-third of the face. A standard face and neck lift is really a lift of the lower two-thirds of the face and neck. A forehead lift is a facelift of the upper one-third of the face. It may be combined with a standard face and neck lift or an eyelid lift.
A forehead lift is recommended for people whose eyebrows have drooped over time and who have deep forehead wrinkles. A forehead lift will improve the deep horizontal and vertical grooves on the forehead that develop after years of facial expression.
Oftentimes, we combine forehead lifts with blepharoplasty, and when the brows are positioned correctly, it helps optimize our eyelid procedures.
