Brow Lift in Kelowna
A brow lift minimizes the creases that develop across the forehead and between the eyes, and repositions a low or sagging brow.
Reduce forehead creases and frown lines
A brow lift minimizes the creases that develop across the forehead, or those that occur high on the bridge of the nose, between the eyes. It can improve frown lines, the vertical creases that develop between the eyebrows, and reposition a low or sagging brow that is hooding the upper eyelid, raising the eyebrows to a more alert and youthful position.
A brow lift is sometimes performed together with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as eyelid surgery to rejuvenate aging eyes, a facelift to correct aging changes in the mid-to-lower face and neck, or skin resurfacing such as dermabrasion.
Brow Lift: the procedure and results
The procedure
A brow lift may be performed using a surgical camera, known as an endoscope, and special instruments placed through small incisions within the hairline. This allows the tissue and muscle beneath the skin to be repositioned, altered or removed, correcting the source of visible creases and furrows in the forehead.
A low or sagging brow may be corrected with or without an endoscope through incisions at the temples and in the scalp, sometimes with incisions hidden in the natural crease of the upper eyelids. An alternative is the coronal brow lift, which uses an incision from ear to ear across the top of the scalp. Brow lift incisions are well concealed within the hair. The operation requires general anaesthesia and is performed on a day care basis.
Results
Results appear gradually as swelling and bruising subside to reveal smoother forehead skin and a more youthful, restful appearance.
Before undergoing any cosmetic surgical procedure, consult with your physician and your plastic surgeon to determine if cosmetic surgery is an appropriate choice for you.
