Forehead Lift / Browlift
A forehead lift, or browlift, is a surgical procedure that can revitalize a drooping or lined forehead, helping you to look less angry, sad or tired. Performed in our state-of-the-art Beverly Hills and Los Angeles facilities using either traditional (open) or minimally invasive (endoscopic) methods, browlifts involve the removal or alteration of the muscles above the eyes to smooth lines and raise the eyebrows for a more youthful and refreshed appearance. The browlift procedure is often combined with other operations such as blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and facelifts to improve the look of the eyes and other areas of the face.
While browlifts are typically performed on patients aged 40-60 to counteract the effects of aging, anyone with lined or inelastic skin on the forehead – whether it’s caused by repetitive muscle activity or inherited conditions – is eligible. The browlift procedure is usually performed in our Los Angeles or Beverly Hills facilities under local anesthesia and sedation.
If you are unsure of whether or not you want a browlift, try standing in front of a mirror and placing the palms of your hands to the sides of your eyes above the eyebrows. Then pull the skin back from the eyes, raising the forehead. This is approximately how the procedure will make you look.
Browlifts may be performed in one of two ways: with conventional methods, in which the incision is hidden beneath the hairline
