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.
