After Browlift Surgery Will You Still Be Able to Have Movement in the Eyebrows? Will It Be Paralyze? If So for How Long?

October 11, 2013

I was thinking in having a brow lift and forehead reduction but I'm scared if I do I won't be able to make expressions or movements like before the surgery? An example like the confuse expression. And will you have frown lines because I still want frown lines if I make the surprise face for an example . And I'm 18 my eyebrows are so low that's under my brow bone . I just want my brow to be where my brow bone is. I have low eyebrow due to my dad side of the family and long forehead.
