Brow lift and you – is it time?

If you feel it is time to undergo surgery to lift your brow, every aspect of your journey is geared to be pleasant, compassionate, and empowering. A brow lift brings the following benefits:

  • Smooths away brow lines and creases
  • Addresses frown lines between your eyebrows
  • Subtly lifts the eyelids for a natural, refreshed look
  • Restore your eyebrows to the natural ridge
  • Smooths crow’s feet
  • Creates a youthful arch to your eyebrows
  • Treats a heavy, overhanging brow

If you believe a brow lift may be right for you, the first step is a private consultation with Dr. Balinger. He will be open and honest with you, answering all your questions about the surgery, what to expect in your recovery, and the final look once the tissues have healed. For many people, a custom brow lift is an age-defying procedure that highlights your facial features to create a more open, engaging facial appearance.

Brow lift surgery: Which approach is right for you?

Your custom brow lift at Houston Plastic Surgery Associates will be performed with advanced techniques.

Traditional brow lift surgery

This approach may be appropriate for people who need an extensive correction of the brow tissues. An incision is placed within the hairline, where the scar will be hidden once healed. The tissues are delicately raised by removing the excess skin and tissue while gently raising the area to create a refreshed, smooth look.

Endoscopic brow lift surgery

An advanced brow lift technique, the endoscopic approach involves placing smaller incisions in the hairline, with the excess skin and tissue removed and the underlying structure repositioned. The recovery time is shorter, and this approach may be ideal for you. The lifting effect smooths forehead lines, lifts the brows, and leaves you looking refreshed.

Temporal (lateral) brow lift surgery

This technique involves placing incisions about one inch long in the hairline, just above the forehead. One advantage is that this procedure requires only local anesthesia. The tissues of the forehead are delicately corrected and lifted to smooth the brow, lift the eyebrows, and smooth crow’s feet.

Trichophytic brow lift surgery

This technique, which is also termed a “hairline” brow lift, involves placing an uneven, wavy incision in the hairline, which leaves a less visible scar. The brows are gently elevated, and horizontal lines and creases are smoothed. This procedure is ideal for those who do not expect to experience natural balding later in life.

Preparing for surgery

You will be provided with all the information you need to prepare for surgery. You may be asked to stop taking blood-thinning medications or supplements, and we can speak with the prescribing doctor to ensure your safety. If you smoke, you must quit for several weeks prior to your surgery. Stay hydrated, eat healthy foods, and avoid alcoholic drinks. We will guide you on the steps you need to take to prepare for surgery and schedule it at a time that is convenient for you.
