A Brow Lift, also known as a forehead lift, reduces signs of aging by raising the eyebrows and smoothing out forehead wrinkles. As part of the surgery, the incisions are made along the hairline or in the natural creases on the forehead. Muscles and tissues are lifted and repositioned through these incisions. The excess skin is removed with care, and the remaining skin is effectively tightened to create a more vibrant and refreshed appearance. This procedure can correct drooping brows, reduce the appearance of deep forehead lines, and improve the face’s overall symmetry.
Brow Lift in Kerrville, TX, and Houston, TX, is ideal for individuals experiencing sagging eyebrows, deep forehead wrinkles, and frown lines between brows. Patients typically seek this surgery to achieve a more alert and rejuvenated look. Results can be seen almost immediately, becoming apparent as swelling subsides. Depending on skin quality and aging factors, a Brow Lift can last up to ten years. Book an appointment with Layton Aesthetics Plastic Surgery today.

During your initial consultation, the designated surgeon will thoroughly assess you, discuss your goals, and review your medical history. This is also the time to ask any questions and discuss any concerns regarding the surgery or recovery process. The consultation helps ensure that you have realistic expectations and are well-informed about the procedure.
The underlying tissues are usually accessed through incisions made along the hairline during a brow lift. Excess skin is carefully removed by the surgeon, and the remaining skin is raised and tightened to achieve the desired results. Once the adjustments are made, the incisions are carefully stitched, and a head wrap is placed as a bandage to aid recovery. This procedure can be tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy, forehead height, hairline, and desired outcome for optimal results.
In general, candidates who exhibit moderate to severe aging signs around the eyes, eyebrows, and forehead are good candidates for brow lifts. This procedure is particularly effective for minimizing dynamic wrinkles, frown lines, and wrinkles caused by repetitive facial movements. If you notice lines between the eyes, horizontal forehead creases, or deep wrinkles on the bridge of the nose, a brow lift may be suitable for you. While less invasive than other cosmetic surgeries, the results are long-lasting and can significantly beautify and enhance your facial appearance.
A brow lift substantially reduces the signs of aging on the upper face, minimizing wrinkles, fine lines, and loose skin that can impair vision and contribute to a tired look. Lifting the brow position makes the eyes appear more alert, awake, and youthful. This operation can also alleviate sagging skin that makes individuals look sad, worried, tired, or angry, resulting in a rejuvenated and refreshed appearance.
Recovery from a brow lift is generally smooth, with minimal pain. Most patients take basic prescription pain medication for the first day or two, then transition to over-the-counter medicines. Bruising may occur, often settling around the eyes and creating a “black eye” appearance, typically lasting about one week. Patients may need to take time off work and other activities during this period to rest and recover. Stitches are usually removed two weeks after the procedure.
Many patients combine a brow lift procedure with other procedures, such as a blepharoplasty or facelift, for more comprehensive rejuvenation. Combining procedures can enhance overall facial harmony and provide a more balanced and youthful appearance. An experienced surgeon, like Dr. Layton in Houston, can discuss the potential benefits of combining a brow lift with other treatments during your consultation.
