What Is a Brow Lift?

Brow lift surgery, or a forehead lift, repositions the eyebrows and addresses wrinkles on the forehead that give you an angry or tired look. With well-concealed incisions in the hairline or eyebrows, a brow lift removes excess skin and tissue and tightens the skin of the forehead. The procedure restores the contours of the brow and reduces wrinkles for a smoother, younger-looking face.

Brow lifts help rejuvenate your forehead by addressing common signs of aging and creating a refreshed, more alert-looking face by:

  • Raising brow position
  • Smoothing forehead creases and wrinkles
  • Diminishing furrows and creases
  • Reducing wrinkles on the bridge of the nose

What Issues Can a Brow Lift Correct?

During your brow lift surgery, Dr. Brys can address different aspects of the brows and forehead to rejuvenate your appearance by correcting functional and aesthetic concerns, including:

  • Recontour brows that have lost their arch
  • Lift drooping or uneven eyebrows
  • Improve horizontal forehead creases, glabellar lines, crow’s feet
  • Addresses creases or furrows on the bridge of the nose
  • Restore sagging brows that hood upper eyelids
  • Improve impaired vision
  • Enhance facial aesthetic

Brow Lift and Weight Loss

Weight loss has significant positive effects on your health. Particularly rapid weight loss may, however, have unintended effects on the skin, leaving the brows and eyelids droopy, heavy, or tired-looking. This is particularly noticeable after medications or surgeries help you achieve significant weight loss, creating what has been popularly termed “Ozempic face.” With a brow lift, Dr. Brys can help you reposition facial tissues to address drooping brows that might draw attention away from your weight loss success.

Preparing for Your Brow Lift Surgery

• Consider scheduling consultations with multiple plastic surgeons to find the most experienced provider for your unique needs.

• Review before/after photos and patient reviews.

Medical Evaluation by Dr. Brys

• Complete blood work or additional tests to assess your overall health.

• Assess current medications, including blood-thinning medications, anti-inflammatory drugs, or herbal supplements that may cause bleeding.

Pre-surgery Preparation

• Avoid all nicotine products for at least two weeks before surgery and until recovery is complete.

• Nicotine products, including tobacco, vaping, gum or patches, decrease your body’s ability to heal following surgery, causing complications, delaying recovery, and negatively affecting your results.

• Eat balanced, nutritious meals with plenty of protein to support optimal recovery.

• Maintain weight through diet and exercise.

Prepare for your Recovery Phase

• Plan to take off 1-2 weeks off from work, longer for physically demanding jobs.

• Post-surgery transportation and care by a responsible adult for at least 24 hours after your procedure.

• Arrange a clean, comfortable place to recuperate.

• Ensure your medication prescriptions are filled and purchase any necessary supplies. Obtain Vitamin C, Arnica Montana, and Bromelain tablets, as these promote healing.

• Plan meal delivery or consider freezing meals prior to surgery.

Brow Lift Procedure Overview

On the day of your brow lift surgery, you’ll meet with Dr. Brys and your anesthesiologist. Your anesthesiologist will always be a certified MD. Dr. Brys will review the details of your procedure and answer any final questions you may have.

Once you are safely sedated, Dr. Brys will begin your brow lift. With well-concealed incisions in the hair-bearing region of the head, Dr. Brys will remove the redundant forehead skin and tissues. She will tighten the muscles to create a more youthful forehead and appearance.

Depending on the extent of your procedure, brow lift surgery typically takes two to three hours.

Brow Lift Recovery and Healing

Following your brow lift, one should expect bruising and swelling that may spread down around your eyes. These effects should take two to three weeks to resolve; however, residual swelling may last up to a year.

To aid the recovery process, Dr. Brys recommends:

One to two weeks post-surgery:

  • Plan to take at least one to two weeks off from work.
  • Keep your head elevated and minimize swelling and bruising by icing the area.
  • Avoid bending, lifting, or engaging in strenuous activities.
  • Avoid squinting by wearing dark sunglasses and a large hat when sun exposure or bright lights are unavoidable.

Two to four weeks post-surgery:

  • Continue avoiding strenuous exercise four to six weeks post-surgery.
  • May resume most normal activities, including light workouts.
  • Attend follow-up appointments.

How Soon Will I See My Parsippany, New Jersey Brow Lift Results?

Many factors impact your brow lift surgery recovery, including the extent of your procedures, health, and age. During your consultation, Dr. Brys will discuss an estimate of your recovery time.
