     Forehead Lift Surgical Procedures
     By Dr. Lisa Santos
                                        

     Forehead lifts are most commonly performed on men and women in the 40-60 year old age range. However, there is no actual age limit to the procedure. A lift in this area can also produce good results for younger adults who may have inherited stress-related conditions.     

The perpetual dynamic force of gravity and aging cause the eyebrows and forehead to descend. As the brows fall they push the redundant skin into the upper eyelid causing a crowded look to the eyes. The brow appears heavy, thickened and deep creases set in between the brows. All this can lead to an angry look or a scowl even when you don't feel this way. Some people look tired. Women may have difficulty placing mascara. Many people seeking rejuvenation surgery are not aware of the sagging eyebrows' participation in their aged appearances. Browlift can be done in isolation, but it is usually done in tandem with a forehead lift or a facelift.

Repositioning forehead skin may be necessary to achieve the optimal improvement in eyelid surgery attracting attention to opened inviting eyes. Also in those with heavy descended brows undergoing facelift, a forehead lift may be key to maintaining a natural look. It will also help to smooth out excess skin and wrinkles in the crows feet and temporal region. Modern technology has improved the way in which we perform this procedure. By using lighted scopes placed through small well-hidden incisions within your hairline swelling bruising and recovery time has been greatly reduced.


A personal consultation is the first step for every person considering a forehead lift. At this meeting I will assess your physical and emotional health and discuss with you your specific goals for having such a surgical procedure.
