Restore Youthful, Alert Eyes with a Brow Lift
As we age, the skin on our forehead can start to sag, causing eyebrows to droop and creating deep frown lines that give us a tired, stressed, or older appearance. A brow lift (also known as a forehead lift) can address these concerns by lifting the brows, smoothing forehead wrinkles, and minimizing frown lines, giving your face a more refreshed, youthful look.
If you're looking to rejuvenate your appearance and restore a more vibrant expression, brow lift surgery in Scottsdale with Dr. Stutman may be the solution. During your initial consultation, Dr. Stutman will explain the procedure in detail and help determine the best approach for your unique needs.
Who is a Good Candidate for a Brow Lift?
A brow lift is ideal for men and women who:
- Have drooping eyebrows that create a tired or sad appearance
- Are bothered by forehead wrinkles or frown lines
- Want a more alert and youthful facial expression
Good candidates should be in overall good health. Smokers and individuals with certain medical conditions may not be suitable candidates for surgery. Dr. Stutman will review your medical history during the consultation to assess your eligibility for the procedure.
The Brow Lift Procedure
Dr. Stutman offers two types of brow lift procedures to best suit your needs: the traditional (open) brow lift and the endoscopic brow lift.
- Traditional Brow Lift: An incision is made along the hairline or behind it, depending on your unique anatomy. This allows Dr. Stutman to remove excess skin, reposition the underlying tissues, and elevate the brows.
- Endoscopic Brow Lift: This less invasive technique uses several small incisions hidden behind the hairline. A tiny camera is used to guide the procedure, making it ideal for patients who prefer minimal scarring.
During your consultation, Dr. Stutman will recommend the most appropriate technique based on your goals and facial structure.
On the Day of Surgery
A brow lift is performed under general anesthesia at a surgery center or hospital, depending on your health and preferences. The surgery involves:
- Making the necessary incisions (either traditional or endoscopic)
- Partially removing muscles that contribute to frown lines
- Elevating the brows by tightening the skin and removing excess tissue
In some cases, additional procedures such as blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), facelift, neck lift, or non-surgical treatments like Botox or Juvéderm may be performed during the same surgery to enhance results.
Recovery After a Brow Lift
After your brow lift surgery, you'll spend a few hours in recovery before being discharged. You will need someone to take you home and assist you for the first few days, as you may experience swelling and bruising.
Most patients return to work and normal activities within 1-2 weeks.During this time, Dr. Stutman will monitor your healing progress to ensure the best outcome.
Risks of a Brow Lift
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks to consider. Potential complications include:
● Hematoma (bleeding after surgery)
● Scarring (some patients may experience thick or visible scars)
● Seroma (fluid accumulation beneath the skin)
● Infection
● Nerve damage (rare but possible)
● Blood clots
● Delayed wound healing
Because brow lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia, it also carries the usual risks associated with anesthesia.
