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

Browlifts do not truly improve wrinkles in the forehead. The operation mostly repositions the eyebrows in a more youthful position.

 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.
