Can a Brow Lift Help Me Look More Awake?

For many people, some of the earliest and most noticeable signs of aging begin to appear on the upper third of the face — often as early as age 35. These may include forehead lines, wrinkles, Crow’s feet, and a descending brow that can cause a person to look tired, angry, worn down, or many years older than they actually are. For patients hoping to restore a more youthful and awake appearance in the upper portion of their face, a brow lift may be a suitable option. At VIP Plastic Surgery in Las Vegas, NV, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Christopher Khorsandi performs a complete suite of facial enhancement surgeries to help men and women regain or achieve the beautiful, natural-looking, and younger appearance they desire. Keep reading to learn more about how a brow lift works to create a more refreshed and awake look patients can feel confident about.

Why does my brow look heavy?

In some cases, patients have a naturally heavy brow — meaning a strong brow line or a brow that naturally sits below the bony portion of their brow line and forehead. Other times, the brow begins to descend or droop over time as a result of the aging process, gravity, and other factors. In either situation, patients often feel that their sagging brow and associated concerns — like forehead lines, wrinkles, Crow’s feet, and downturned eyes — can contribute to an older, angry, tired, or simply undesirable look. For these patients, a brow lift may be the right choice to raise a heavy brow and help reverse their unwanted signs of facial aging.

How does a brow lift work?

Because each patient’s anatomy, concerns, and goals are unique, Dr. Khorsandi takes great care to customize every brow lift procedure. Generally speaking, a brow lift involves an incision (or a series of incisions) along, within, or beyond the hairline, through which Dr. Khorsandi is able to lift and reposition tissues and muscles, trim away excess skin, and make other alterations to create a smoother, more refreshed, and youthful new look. After a thorough consultation and examination, including taking images and creating postoperative simulations with the advanced Vectra 3D imaging system, Dr. Khorsandi will recommend the most appropriate type of brow lift possible for you. Most often, one of the following types of brow lift surgeries is performed:

• Traditional (open incision) brow lift
• Endoscopic brow lift
• Lateral brow lift
• Trichophytic brow lift

Additionally, a cat eye lift, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), or another complementary facial procedure may be suggested in combination with your brow lift to help achieve the most complete and desirable outcome possible.

How can a brow lift improve my appearance?

Some of the most exciting enhancements that can be made with brow lift surgery include:

• More awake, refreshed appearance
• Smoother forehead
• Reduction in brow lines and Crow’s feet
• More open eyes (reduction in saggy eyelids)
• Restored brow arch
• Correct downturned, sad eyes
• Happier appearance
• Younger look overall
