I am 58 years old and have much sagging in upper eyelids. I went to see an ophthalmologist who performed one of the first eyebrow lifts in San Jose. He recommends I wait another year or two for best results. Says the lift only lasts 5 years. Is this true? How long do brow lift results last? Should I wait?
Answer: Brow lift longevity
I agree with many of the other responses. The affect of a brow lift varies depending on the type of lift, the severity of correction, genetic factors and the use of adjunctive measures (such as Botox) to prolong the result. I would typically tell my patients that a brow lift should last for ten years as a ball park. Some people may get longer than that.

Answer: How long do brow lift results last? Brow lift results will vary from one patient to another. Additional factors such as the degree of preoperative heaviness to the brows, surgical approach/technique used, and other treatments or procedures in the same area will all affect the longevity of the procedure. Most patients should see a benefit for 10 years or so, but some will elect to repeat the procedure at an earlier date. Many patients will always be better than if they had never had the procedure performed, and will never have a second procedure.All the best,

Answer: Brow Lift Can Last 5 Years, 10 Years or More There are different types of brow lifts, which may affect your results. And while every patient is different, most brow lifts will last about 10 years. You will continue to age during that time, of course, which means your brows will probably droop again. At that time, you can elect to get another lift. Delaying a brow lift means that you will continue to age without remedy. Get a brow lift now and you've turned back the clock at least five to 10 years and will keep those good results for anther 5 to 10 years or more. I hope this helps.

Answer: Browlifts Last Between 5-10 Years, Depending on Your Skin Variables
How long a brow lift lasts varies from patient to patient. Every patient experiences continued aging and the constant impact of gravity. We frequently turn the clock back with surgery, but we never stop it from ticking.
Variables such as skin thickness, skin elasticity, the degree of environmental damage, and the type of brow lift performed all can affect the longevity of the result. It’s reasonable to expect a brow lift to last 5 to 10 years depending on these variables.

Answer: Browlift Plastic surgery and repair the effect of sagging tissue and gravity. However, after surgery your tissues continue to age and gravity continues to pull. Therefore, the effects of plastic surgery are not permanent. However, after having a browlift, you should expect several years if not more of sustained results. Good luck.
