The forehead and the brow line is among the most notable characteristics of the face. Over time the forehead and brow droops as a result of sun damage, aging and other environmental and dietary variables. Years of using the muscles of the forehead and brow line may also cause wrinkles to form. Collectively, this can give you a saddened and worn-out facial expression. The descent of the brow may also cause excessive skin in the upper eyelid to sag which can change eyesight. A professional Beverly Hills Brow Lift can uncover a younger look and can effectively reverse the early signs of aging.

A Beverly Hills Brow Lift may also alleviate deep creases and will raise the eyebrows back to their natural place, leading to a younger look. The brow lift process is generally performed with tiny incisions that are hidden behind the hairline in a minimally invasive way. Forehead/Brow lifts are usually performed in conjunction with other procedures such as a facelift or blepharoplasty to achieve the most desirable outcome.

Is a Brow Lift Right for You?

Is your brow line or forehead area causing you to seem upset or tired? If you replied ‘yes’ to this question you might be an excellent candidate for Dr. Chen’s Beverly Hills Brow Lift. It is necessary to point out that a brow lift is not going to address sagging or wrinkles in outer regions of the face, so a realistic outcome is to reduce the signs of aging around the forehead and brow area.

Most forehead lift patients range in age from their 40s to their 60s, though the process can be performed for those older or younger than this age range. Those who benefit from Dr. Chen’s Beverly Hills Brow Lift are those in great physical and mental health that maintain realistic expectations.

What to Expect

There are three different approaches to Beverly Hills Brow Lift Surgery. Dr. Chen will assess each patient’s individual needs and desired outcome before deciding how to proceed. Dr. Chen will take into consideration age, overall health, degree of vision obstruction (if any), as well as the structure of the forehead and the position of the natural hairline. There are three common techniques Dr. Henry Chen uses for his brow lifts at his clinic in Beverly Hills:

• Endoscopic brow lift: An endoscopic brow lift is the most common for cosmetic purposes. This requires Dr. Chen to place four small incisions in the hairline. An endoscope (small surgical camera) is inserted through the incisions and is used to release the brow from the underlying bone and suspend it with sutures. After the underlying tissue has been repositioned and trimmed, the four small incisions are then sutured or clamped closed.

• Mid-forehead Brow Lift: Dr. Chen will remove a small area of excess skin on the forehead in order to realign the remaining skin. Incisions are hidden within existing forehead wrinkles, and designed to disappear after healing. This procedure works best on patients with a long brow line.

• Pretrichial Brow Lift: This is when Brow Lift Surgeon, Dr. Chen, elevates the brow and forehead area through an incision which is placed just inside the hairline. The brow is suspended with internal sutures, and excess skin is removed for a smooth outer appearance.

Recovery and Results

After the surgery, a dressing will be applied to any larger incisions. Swelling and bruising are both very common following a Beverly Hills brow lift. Using cold compresses and/or icepacks and keeping the head elevated in the evening while you sleep assist in the healing process. Healing times of your Brow Lift may vary depending on the patient. Endoscopic brow lift surgery often has a faster healing time because it is less invasive.

Combine your Brow Lift with Other Procedures for Maximum Results

A brow lift may be combined with other procedures in order to achieve a more youthful appearance. Eyelid surgery may be included along with a brow lift to give the entire upper half of the face a refreshed look. To diminish signs of aging in the rest of the face and neck, a facelift also may be indicated. For less advanced aging treatment, laser skin resurfacing and other nonsurgical cosmetic procedures may be an option.
