Revitalize your look
Brows may begin to sag over time due to frequent scowling, frowning or squinting to read or avoiding the sun.
Eyebrow shape and fullness trends frequently change with fashion but the general position remains the same. There are several techniques that can be used to restore the eyebrow to its proper position.
The best time to have a forehead/brow lift is at the first signs of drooping and wrinkles in the forehead and eye area. Our board certified plastic surgeons have treated male and female patients of a wide range of ages with eyebrow and forehead problems in the Madison and Milwaukee metro areas of Wisconsin.
To determine the possible outcome of brow lift surgery, you can conduct this simple test. While looking in a mirror, place your palms at the outside areas of your eyes just above your eyebrows, and then gently move the skin out and up to raise the area. The resulting elevation of the eyebrow brightens the appearance of the eyes by providing a more youthful, rejuvenated “frame” around the eye.
Ideal brow lift candidates are healthy men and women who desire improvements in the following:
Our doctors primarily use an endoscope, a small tube that allows for minimal incisions during brow lift procedures. The incisions are hidden within the hair, making them virtually undetectable. During the surgery, small muscles between the eyes are removed to reduce wrinkles, and the forehead tissue is elevated and secured in a more pleasing position. Occasionally an incision is placed along the hairline so the hairline can actually be lowered as the brows are elevated. The technique used depends on the hairline position and patient preference.

As with any procedure, you should stop any medication or supplements that are not essential for 10-14 days prior to decrease your risk of bleeding. Always check with your Doctor prior to stopping any prescribed medications.
Browlift recovery typically involves a pressure dressing that is removed the day after surgery. You can shower that day and pat dry your hair. The brows may look a little overcorrected at this early stage but will settle as the swelling resolves. You will most likely have numbness in the middle of the forehead, sometimes the numbness will go all the way back to the crown of the head. Numbness slowly resolves over months.
There is not much planning necessary for a browlift recovery. Just be very careful combing your hair so you avoid trauma to the incisions. Depending on bruising, you may look quite good in less than a week. If you have bruising around the eyes, this will slowly resolve. You can wear makeup on anything that isn’t a suture, so many will cover bruising and start going back to normal activities.

A more permanent fix to this problem would be a brow lift and there are other advantages of a brow lift in that the corrugator muscles that cause the wrinkles between the eyebrows can be partially resected so that even these lines are also permanently improved.
