Forehead Lift

A forehead lift, also known as a brow lift, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to raise the eyebrows, reduce forehead wrinkles, and restore a youthful, refreshed appearance to the upper face. It addresses drooping brows and deep frown lines that can make a person look tired, angry, or older than they feel.

At Medixir Clinic, we offer advanced techniques in forehead lifting, including endoscopic and traditional methods. Each procedure is tailored to the individual’s anatomy and aesthetic goals, ensuring natural-looking, harmonious results.

The endoscopic forehead lift involves small incisions made behind the hairline through which a tiny camera and surgical instruments are used. This minimally invasive method allows the surgeon to reposition tissues, adjust muscles, and elevate the brows with precision and minimal scarring.

The traditional (or coronal) brow lift involves a longer incision across the scalp, hidden within the hair. It provides more dramatic results and may be recommended for patients with significant brow descent or deep forehead lines.

The procedure typically takes 1 to 2 hours and is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. Patients are able to return home the same day and usually resume light activities within a few days.

Recovery after a forehead lift is generally smooth. Swelling and bruising may occur around the forehead and eyes but usually subside within 1 to 2 weeks. Final results become more apparent as healing progresses.

Benefits of a forehead lift include a more alert and youthful appearance, smoother forehead skin, and reduced lines between the eyebrows. It can also improve peripheral vision in patients whose sagging brows obstruct their sight.

Ideal candidates for this procedure are healthy individuals with sagging brows, deep frown lines, or excess forehead skin. The surgery can be performed alone or in combination with eyelid surgery or a facelift for full facial rejuvenation.

At Medixir Clinic, our surgeons use modern, safe, and precise techniques to achieve optimal results with natural contours. We prioritize patient safety, comfort, and satisfaction throughout the entire process.

If you are looking to refresh your upper facial appearance and restore a youthful expression, a forehead lift at Medixir Clinic may be the ideal solution. Book your consultation to explore your personalized options.
