A brow lift is one of the most common facial rejuvenation procedures performed by Dr. Ashruf. It is particularly effective for both men and women who have sagging skin above the eyelids.
Often, many people feel that they appear angry or tired. A brow lift is a permanent solution to this problem! For a more youthful, bright-eyed appearance, a brow lift offers your best solution.
A brow lift will transform the way your face appears. By relieving your brow of deep creases and lines, you will look years younger!
About Brow Lifts
Our faces are the first thing people notice about us.
Repetitive muscle movements cause deep lines and creases to appear in the brow. Combined with diminished skin elasticity, the forehead may appear to overhang the eyes. People who have droopy eyebrows may appear tired, angry, or confused. First impressions matter, and a furrowed brow may make someone seem unapproachable. A brow lift will correct these issues and truly impact your appearance.
In a brow lift, incisions will be made along your hairline. The pattern of these incisions will vary based on your facial features. Through these incisions, excess tissue will be removed, underlying muscles will be tightened, and the skin will be smoothed across the forehead.
The results will be impressive and immediately noticeable!
Benefits
The primary advantage of a brow lift is that it will give you the results you want right away! Treatments like Botox and dermal fillers will temporarily relieve concerning areas in the forehead but will only improve concerns for a few months at a time.
Not only will a brow lift give you impressive, long-lasting results, but the way we perform the surgery at Cosmetic Plastic Surgery & Laser Center of Maryland will shorten your recovery time. Endoscopic surgery requires a few small incisions that are discreetly made in the hairline. Traditional brow lifts require one large incision that may create a noticeable scar afterward. The smaller incisions help your brow lift appear natural and also help hide any leftover marks.
A brow lift will provide comprehensive improvement for the upper face and will give you impressive results that last years! You shouldn’t be self-conscious about the furrows in your brow: a simple endoscopic brow lift will leave you looking years younger and much more rested.
Candidates
Adult men and women often seek out solutions to their wrinkles and forehead lines. If you are one of those people, ask yourself:
- Do you have sagging skin or wrinkles around the brow?
- Do you feel that you frequently appear tired or angry?
- Do you want to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles on your forehead?
- Are you seeking a more youthful, alert appearance?
If you have answered “yes” to one or more of these questions, then you may be a candidate for a brow lift. A forehead lift will reduce deep lines, helping you appear more rested and approachable. This surgery will produce significant results that will help transform your whole appearance.
Personal Consultation
Dr. Ashruf will evaluate your concerns, focusing on the wrinkles and creases that are present on your forehead. A brow lift can dramatically diminish these telltale signs of aging by tightening the forehead muscles and excising lax skin. Dr. Ashruf can perform this procedure endoscopically, meaning a shorter recovery time and no visible signs of plastic surgery.
This cutting-edge technology will allow your procedure to be performed meticulously and safely. An endoscopic procedure will allow Dr. Ashruf to see the underlying muscles that are adding to the problem of a heavy brow. At our center, we strive to give our patients innovative techniques that improve the safety and efficiency of the surgery.
Dr. Ashruf will inquire about your current health, medications, and past treatments. This information will help him gauge if a brow lift is a healthy solution to your concerns.
He will explain the details of the surgery, anesthetic options, potential risks, and expected recovery period. He will also inform you how to best prepare for the surgery and healing process. If you have any questions or concerns that are not addressed during the private meeting, our staff will be more than willing to help out over the phone.
Preparation
Prescribed medications will need to be picked up before the surgery date and you will need to arrange rides with family members or friends. A few weeks prior to the appointment date, you will need to stop taking antihistamines and pause smoking habits.
The morning of the surgery, dress in comfortable clothes and do not apply products on your face unless they have been approved by Dr. Ashruf.
Dr. Ashruf will give you instructions during your consultation on how to best prepare for a brow lift surgery and what the healing process will look like. Follow his instructions to ensure a positive experience.
Brow Lift Procedure
Our state-of-the-art method of performing brow lifts uses an endoscopic approach.
Performed by Dr. Ashruf, this technique employs the use of very thin instruments and a small camera that is inserted through four small incisions hidden beneath the hair. This camera allows Dr. Ashruf to view the surgical area on a monitor.
The endoscopic brow lift avoids the need for a large scalp incision and the permanent numbness that is sometimes associated with open brow lifts. As a result, recovery time is quicker.
Through the smaller incisions, unnecessary tissues will be removed and muscles tightened. Once your brow lift is complete, your incisions will be closed and bandaged.
Recovery
After the surgery, your incision sites will be sensitive and your forehead will be swollen. Any discomfort can be controlled with medication and a thin tube may be placed in incisions to help reduce excess fluids.
You will need to keep your head elevated and sleep on your back so as not to agitate the incisions. Vigorous activities should be avoided for a few weeks to ensure proper healing.
A follow-up appointment will allow Dr. Ashruf to monitor your healing and ensure you are having a positive recovery. The initial healing will take about two weeks, after which point regular activities can be resumed.
Results
You will immediately notice an improvement in the appearance of your brow. After about two weeks, swelling should have diminished and you should be comfortable going out and showing off your results. Your final outcome will set in after a couple of months and should last for years! The best way to keep your results consistent is with a healthy weight, active lifestyle, and healthy eating.
Cost
Each brow procedure is personalized to the patient’s facial features. The cost of each of these surgeries varies based on the extent of work needed and the desired outcome. Dr. Ashruf can help you achieve a natural eyebrow lift that shows off your eyes and the contours of your face! For more information on the brow lift procedure, contact us at (410) 590-4313.
