How Would a Brow Lift Affect the Wrinkles in The Forehead?

 Thank you for the question.

“Wrinkles” caused by muscle animation ( such as the frontalis  muscle causing transverse forehead lines  or corrugated/procerus  muscles causing frown lines)  can be treated at the time of brow lifting surgery. The muscles responsible for causing these lines can be divided partially.

On the other hand, superficial lines that are present at rest may not be affected by the interruption of underlying muscles and therefore will not necessarily be  improved upon by forehead  lifting. These lines may need to be treated with resurfacing techniques such as peels  or lasers.

The use of fillers and/or Botox may also be helpful.

I hope this helps.

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.
