Asked By:trishaa in Riverside, CA

I had a brow lift at the hairline in Dec. I'm happy with brow the position. I have an issue with my forehead. Before surgery, if I lifted my brows I'd have wrinkles. Now when I lift my brows, the area above my brows looks like a lump of muscle, but the top of my forehead is smooth. And my temples have deep wrinkles. My doc said it's normal to have skin bunch when you lift the brows. This isn't normal for me. My doc said it could take a year for full healing, and that the bunching should go away.
