What is an Eyebrow Lift?

An eyebrow lift is a cosmetic surgery that changes the position of your forehead to lift the eyebrows and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, which retains your youthful charm. This treatment is also known as forehead lift, brow plasty, forehead rejuvenation, and temporal/lateral brow lift The elasticity in your skin reduces as you get older. Repeated sun exposure damages your skin. 

As gravity sags your eyebrow, it develops wrinkles, and frown lines on your forehead that give an angry or serious look. A brow lift treatment can be the right investment if you want to fix your drooping eyebrows and these aesthetic concerns.

The Anatomy of the Eyebrow Area

The design and positioning of your eyebrow differs among people and depends on factors, such as genetics and culture. In females, the eyebrow is positioned above the upper orbital rim with an arch in peak just above lateral limbs and lateral thins. The male eyebrows have higher hair density and more horizontal and interior positioning. Eyebrow skin is thick, and heavy in hair, sebaceous glands, and sweat. The eyebrow fat pad is positioned between the deep fascia and periosteum.

The fat pad goes to the periorbital septal plan via this fat pad, which attaches your eyebrow to the supraorbital ridge. The eyebrow protects your eyes by keeping sweat and dust away and helps to show your expressions and different moods. Your eyebrow area sags and your forehead drops with natural aging, which you can fix with our eyebrow lift surgery.  We lift your eyebrows, which makes your eyes look bigger and reduce the appearance of frown lines.

Different Types of Eyebrow Lifts

Here are the different types of eyebrow lifts you can do to fix your sagging eyebrows:

Direct Brow Lift

Dropping eyebrows makes you look tired, sad, or older than your age.  Direct brow lift fixes low brow positioning by removing the excess sagging forehead skin above your eyebrow and repositioning the tissues and muscles to lift your eyebrows. A direct brow lift is a surgery that fixes sagging/heavy eyebrows, also known as “brow ptosis”.

This brow lift surgery involves directly making an incision on the forehead for precise manipulation of the muscles and skin. We position the incision in the forehead creases above your eyebrows to conceal any scars and make them look lifted.

Endoscopic Brow Lift

Endoscopic brow lift is a growing popular treatment as it involves fewer and fewer invasive incisions. A tiny endoscope is used in the treatment, which is usually attached to the camera that helps the surgeon to examine and identify tissues of your forehead. The surgeon can safely identify and protect nerves near the eyebrows during the treatment.
As such incisions are minimal, the patients tend to experience minimal pain, zero numbness on the scalp, and shorter downtime. You may experience bruising and swelling for 3 to 7 days post-surgery. The results may stay for approximately 10 years. This treatment can do wonders for a person with facial paralysis.

Transblepharoplasty Brow Lift

It is a bilateral process in which the mid-fat pad is exposed, activated, and implemented on brow lifts. The surgeon inspects and marks the area of the possible lift. This treatment works well for patients having an average brow descent who prefer a less involved process. The camouflaged incisions in your natural skin or hairline folds diminish their appearance.
The treatment usually takes 30 to 75 minutes and can be performed with general anesthesia or under controlled sedation. You may experience swelling after the treatment and you can subside by applying ointment on the wound and using iced compresses, which speeds up the healing process.

Coronal Brow Lift

A coronal brow lift, also known as an “open brow lift”, is the oldest type of treatment that lifts your eyebrows via an incision along the top of the head and at the back of the hairline. An incision is done from ear to ear, which is positioned across your forehead. The tissues get lifted, and go down to your eyebrows. Then, they pull tight and stretch backward to lift your eyebrows and tighten your forehead.

This treatment extends your forehead, moves back your hairline a little bit, and conceals the state at the top of your head. Coronal brow lifts are perfect for people with small foreheads who want a lifted hairline. The healing takes approximately 2 weeks when swelling, pain, and bruising are cured. Even though recovery varies, many patients recover after 2 weeks and wear makeup after 1 week.

Trichophytic Brow Lift

Trichophytic brow lift is a surgery that lifts sagging eyebrows and lowers a high forehead. It pulls your forehead skin to reduce the appearance of creases near your eyelids. The surgeon makes incisions on your forehead and hairline. They lift a specific amount of skin from forehead tissues and remove some fat from the targeted area. With the forehead skin lifted, it removes extra skin from your upper lines and frown lines.

As the results are permanent, you can immediately look more youthful. Get a trichophytic brow lift if your eyebrow exterior is sagging and the upper lid has excessive skin that gives you a frown look. You shouldn’t bend over for at least 3 months, put pressure on the targeted area, avoid wearing clothes that need to be pulled over your head, and make multiple expressions in the initial weeks of the treatment.

Temporal Brow Lift

A temporal brow lift, also known as a lateral/limited incision brow lift, lifts your eyebrow’s outer portion, fixes hooded eyelids, and reduces the appearance of temple area wrinkles. This treatment involves no extra incisions yet gives you the desirable brow contours. A single incision is made close to the temple area on all sides of your head.
The incisions can be done at or behind your hairline depending on your hairline and preferences. Then, the underlying tissues can be replaced for contouring your external
eyebrows. 

This treatment is quite less invasive and can be finished in less than an hour. You can immediately see an enhanced outer brow after surgery. This treatment has a short recovery time and delivers natural-looking results, which stay for many years.
