Brow Lift

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure that helps restore a youthful appearance to the face by elevating a droopy brow line and reducing frown lines in between the brows.

What is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift procedure removes loose, sagging skin to create a smooth forehead with high, youthful brows, and bright, open eyes. During your initial consultation at our practice, Dr. Sozer will thoroughly examine your face and give you their professional opinion on the procedure that is right for you.


What is a Brow Lift Procedure Like?

There are multiple approaches to brow lift surgery, and the procedure can be tailored to suit your specific needs.

Coronal Brow Lift

The coronal brow lift is the traditional forehead lift technique. There is a single incision made from ear to ear, across the top of the forehead. The incision is hidden within the hairline and is almost impossible to see when healed. During the procedure, the forehead skin is lifted and the excess tissue is removed, raising the browline and opening the eyes. The muscles within the forehead are also tightened and repositioned to create a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Gliding Brow Lift

The Gliding Brow Lift (GBL) is an outpatient procedure that can be done under local or general anesthesia, as well as a standalone procedure or added to others. It is a revolutionary approach, that provides long-lasting customizable results with minimal scaring and minimal risk. Small stab incisions are made and hidden within the hairline, which allows the dissection to be completed. A surgical net is then utilized to shape and secure the brow in the exact and desired position. 


What is Recovery Like After a Forehead Lift?

Recovery time following a brow/forehead lift surgery varies greatly among individuals. Depending on your general physical condition and the extent of your surgery, you may be able to return to non-strenuous activities within ten days of your surgery.

After a coronal brow lift, it takes one to two weeks for swelling and bruising to resolve. A small amount of swelling may remain for up to six months and will continue to dissipate gradually.


Am I a Good Brow Lift Candidate?

A brow/forehead lift procedure can be beneficial to men and women of many ages. If you have skin laxity in your forehead and drooping eyebrows, a brow lift may be the right option for you. A proper evaluation by Dr. Sozer is necessary to know whether you are a candidate for surgical and/or non-surgical procedures.

You may be a good candidate for a forehead lift if you:

  • Suffer from upper eyelid ptosis (drooping of the eyelids)
  • Have excess forehead skin and tissue
  • Have deep horizontal creases across your forehead
  • Have furrows (frown lines) between the eyebrows
  • Are healthy and do not have any medical conditions that may impair healing
  • Have a positive outlook and realistic expectations of what surgery can achieve
  • Are a non-smoker
