Browlift, also known as forehead and eyebrow lift, is a plastic surgery procedure aimed at lifting sagging eyebrows, smoothing forehead wrinkles, and overall rejuvenation of the upper parts of the face. Eyebrows play a key role in facial expression – their drooping can cause a tired, frowning, or sad appearance.
Who is browlift suitable for?
This procedure is ideal for women and men troubled by:
- sagging or asymmetrical eyebrows
- deep horizontal forehead wrinkles
- tired and aging appearance of the upper facial area
- unsatisfactory shape of the forehead and eyebrows after previous procedures
Browlift can significantly improve facial symmetry and expression, with results that look natural and harmonious.
Procedure process
- Consultation – selection of the appropriate technique based on the degree of forehead drooping and skin type
- General anesthesia – painless procedure lasting approximately 1 to 1.5 hours
- Minimally invasive incisions – made in the hairline, so scars are hidden
- Use of absorbable stitches – no need for later removal
- Possibility of combination – often performed together with blepharoplasty for even better effect
Postoperative course and recovery
- Rest regime – recommended during the first week after surgery
- Swelling and bruising – common reaction that subsides within 2 – 3 weeks
- Protect the forehead area from the sun – wearing a cap or hat is recommended
- Combination with eyelid surgery – brings comprehensive rejuvenation of the upper facial area
