Am I a Good Candidate for a Brow Lift?
Forehead lifts in Cosmeticare are more commonly performed on people between the ages of 40 to 60, but can help younger patients as well who have developed furrows or frown lines due to stress or sun exposure.
The brow lift is an excellent choice for those looking to minimize the visible effects of aging by improving a droopy or low position of the brow. It can also help you if you’ve found yourself wanting to permanently eliminate deep horizontal creases across your forehead. When you visit us for your initial consultation, you’ll meet with an expert surgeon who will get to know your cosmetic goals and work with you to recommend the treatment option that’s best for you and your personal aspirations.
The Brow Lift Procedure
With a brow lift, the muscles and tissues that cause droopy brows and forehead lines are weakened to create a smoother look. For your procedure, the surgeon may use the conventional surgical technique, in which the incision is hidden across the top of the head, just behind the hairline.
The Endoscopic method involves the use of an endoscope, a special viewing instrument that enables your surgeon to view images of the internal areas of your forehead through three or more short incisions. Either method will give you good results, but the conventional method may yield longer-lasting results.
At our facilities in Cosmeticare, a brow lift is performed under general anesthesia and can be safely combined with other procedures such as facelift, mid-facelift, neck lift, or eyelid surgery for a comprehensive improvement of facial features.
Resting and Recovering After Your Brow Lift
In the first days following surgery, you can expect to experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, all of which can be controlled with medication. Swelling and bruising will continue to subside for the next two to three weeks. It's important to realize that the amount of time it takes for recovery can vary greatly with each patient.
During your consultation for a brow lift in Newport Beach and your pre-operative appointment, your surgeon will go over an exact recovery timeline and a thorough of aftercare guidelines for you to follow. You should expect to take up to two weeks off so that you can have a safe and speedy recovery.
Enjoying Your Brow Lift Results
The results from your brow lift will be immediately noticeable but will reach their final level of visibility once you have fully recovered. You can expect that your results will be even more prominent about 12 to 14 days after your procedure. The results of a brow lift at CosmetiCare in Newport Beach are permanent, however, it is important to note that surgery does not stop the aging process. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and protecting your skin from sun exposure will help to prolong your results.
