A forehead lift, also known as a brow lift, is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance your forehead and lift your brows for a younger and rejuvenated look. Two common techniques are used to achieve this. The classic lift uses a single long incision across the forehead at the top of the hairline. Then, the underlying tissue is worked on to achieve the desired look. However, an endoscopic lift uses three to five smaller incisions that are made at the hairline and across the forehead. Let’s explore the benefits of a forehead lift so you can decide if it’s right for you.
Removes and Reduces Excess Skin
Our skin slowly begins to sag as we age. This could be due to natural collagen and muscle loss or sun damage. A forehead lift can remove the sagging skin by tightening the forehead and brow. This will leave a smoother and more youthful appearance. It will also help to remove wrinkles and reduce the appearance of fine lines.
Reduces Upper Eyelid Sagging
Our eyelids are made of skin like the rest of our faces. This means your eyelids will begin to sag and droop over time. This makes your eyes look tired, dull, older, or even sad. Thankfully, a brow lift can help stretch the loose skin and restore your upper eyelids.
Improve Eyebrow Arch
Eyebrows are supposed to be sharp and pronounce the beauty of your eyes. However, eyebrows are attached to the skin, and that skin can droop over time. A forehead lift will stretch the skin and tighten it. This will lead to a more pronounced eyebrow arch that will appear youthful and sharp.
Long-Lasting Results
In the world of cosmetics, not all treatments are long-lasting. Thankfully, forehead lifts are a minimally invasive surgical procedure that provides almost permanent results. Forehead lifts can last 10 to 12 years. However, they can last far longer with proper skincare.
