It is important to remember that all surgical operations have limitations. Thus, patients must understand what a brow lift procedure can accomplish. The brow lift will likely make the upper third of your face look fresher and younger, but it will not change your look altogether. This operation is designed to set back the clock a few years and correct certain signs of aging, like droopy brows, excess skin, and wrinkles, but it should not change your face to make you look like a different person. A successful brow lift result will cause those around you to notice that you look better without knowing exactly why that is.
A cosmetic brow lift procedure is not only used to raise the brow tissues; it also offers additional benefits. Recognizing the advantages of a well-performed brow lift operation is fundamental in deciding to proceed with surgery. Some of the benefits of a cosmetic brow lift include:
- Restoration of a youthful brow contour.
- Correction of skin hooding that hangs over the upper eyelids.
- Treatment of frown lines and deep creases that develop on the bridge of the nose (look of anger or concern).
- Smoother forehead skin, reducing the appearance of horizontal forehead lines.
- Replacement of the tired look resulting from a low or heavy brow for a look of awareness and vitality.
