The holidays are a time for connecting with loved ones, reflecting on the past year, and looking ahead to new beginnings. For many women, the holiday season also sparks a desire to refresh their look and recapture a more youthful appearance.

If sagging brows or deep forehead wrinkles are making you look older and more tired than you feel, a brow lift may be the ideal procedure to restore a rested, vibrant, and naturally lifted look just in time for the holidays. But what is this procedure all about? How will it improve your skin tone? Of course, these questions are on your mind. Continue reading to discover the answers and learn more about a brow lift.

What is a Brow Lift and How Does it Rejuvenate Your Appearance?

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a facial rejuvenation procedure that corrects drooping brows and smooths forehead wrinkles and furrows. The brow lift procedure lifts the soft tissues and muscles of the forehead region to reduce the heaviness of the eyebrow arch and correct creases across the forehead and bridge of the nose. This provides an open, energetic appearance with a smoother brow contour and diminished frown lines.

During a brow lift, small incisions are made within the hairline to access the underlying muscles and tissues. These are tightened, trimmed or repositioned to lift the eyebrows and smooth the forehead. Incisions are closed with small sutures or clips and will fade over time into fine, barely visible lines. Swelling and bruising are common during the first week following a brow lift procedure but dissipate quickly.

Most patients see the final results within 2-3 months. When performed by an experienced cosmetic surgeon like Dr. DeLozier, a brow lift achieves natural-looking, long-lasting improvements in the upper third of the face for a more rested, positive expression.

Who is a Good Candidate for a Brow Lift?

If drooping brows or deep creases across your forehead are making you appear angry, sad or tired, a brow lift may help. Good candidates for brow lift surgery include:

• Women and men with low or sagging eyebrows that visually weigh down the eyes. This can create a constant "fatigued" look.
• Individuals with deep horizontal creases or frown lines across the forehead region
• Those with a low brow position that partly obscures the eyelids, causing a "hooded" eyelid appearance
• People whose low brows accentuate skin wrinkling in the upper face
• Individuals with a "surprised" expression due to high, arched brows that need lowering and contouring.
• Younger and mature patients whose brow position impacts facial expressions and aesthetics.

Benefits of a Brow Lift this Holiday Season

Rejuvenating a tired or severe appearance with a brow lift offers benefits beyond a refreshed look this holiday season. Perks of a brow lift include:

• Smooths wrinkles and lifts brows for a more open, youthful eye area and expression. This conveys a positive, rested mood.
• It creates better symmetry and proportions between facial features like brows, eyes, and forehead.
• Opens up the eyes and eyelids without surgery to the eyelids themselves.
• Permanently corrects brow descent that occurs with age.
• Softens the appearance of deep frown lines and crow's feet at the outer eyes.
• Complementary enhancement when performed with a facelift, blepharoplasty or neck lift.
• It offers minimal scarring when performed by a skilled surgeon.

Considering the quick recovery, long-lasting improvements, and subtle scarring, a brow lift is ideal for refreshing your look during the holiday downtime. The results can boost self-confidence heading into the New Year.

What are the Risks?

While brow lift surgery is low risk, the most common side effects include:

• Temporary numbness around the incision sites
• Mild bruising and swelling for up to 2 weeks
• Irritation, itching and tightness as the incisions heal
• Potential asymmetry in brow height or contour (usually temporary)
• Scarring along the incision lines (typically faint and concealed within the hairline)

Choosing an experienced surgeon like Dr. DeLozier reduces risks of bleeding, infection, hair loss along the incision line, and visible scarring greatly.

Yes, there are non-surgical alternatives, such as Botox and dermal fillers, which can provide temporary improvements. However, for longer-lasting and more significant results, a brow lift surgery is often recommended.
