Brow lift vs. forehead wrinkles.

A brow lift unfurls the forehead skin. Muscle activity is reduced between the eyes. Overactivity in the central forehead is best treated with Botox or Dysport. Tailored brow positioning is the beauty of the surgical lift.

Brow lift expectations

Brow lifts, especially open (non-endoscopic) ones, typically have long-term to permanent results. If your forehead has horizontal wrinkles it could be because you are involuntarily lifting your droopy brows. After a brow lift you will not need to do this and the wrinkles do typically diminish.

Browlift is generally a once in a lifetime operation.

Effect of Browlift on Forehead Wrinkles

The main purpose of brow lift surgery is to lift the brows and if necessary improve hairline position with our Irregular Trichophytic Hairline Incision , but wrinkles will be improved depending on the technique used.

Improving forehead wrinkles with a brow lift

Brow lift and forehead lift are 2 terms for the same thing. The cause of forehead wrinkles is hyperactivity of the muscles used to raise the eybrows, so if there is some sagging of the brow the muscles are working constantly to hold the brow up. This results in folding the skin into wrinkles that become set after a time. So in raising the brow surgically, the muscles can relax and the wrinkles soften. It is a long-lasting procedure.
