A surgical brow lift is generally considered a permanent procedure, although some surgeons would disagree with this statement. The results of an endoscopic brow lift may be appreciated in postoperative photographs taken 20 years after the operation, with the brow maintaining its position. Having said this, the durability of the result will depend on a patient’s genetic aging, loss or gain of facial volume, and sun exposure, among other factors. A brow lift operation turns back the hands on the clock of aging, but the clock continues ticking the moment the patient leaves the operating room. Eating a healthy diet, preventing dramatic weight changes, and applying botulinum toxin to keep the brow depressor muscles relaxed are the best ways to prolong the result of your brow lift.
