The upper part of the face consists of the eyebrows and forehead, where the skin tends to lose elasticity. As we age, the upper facial skin often develops permanent lines that can make the face seem tired or worn. Because there are no other features on the upper third of the face except a large expanse of skin, these lines are very apparent. Today, many women and men over 35 begin requesting this particular procedure.
Why a browlift?
Your face should reflect your youthful spirit. If it doesn’t, a brow lift can reduce forehead creases and restore a smooth appearance. Wrinkles are the result of many factors that wreak havoc on the skin, including decreased collagen production and years of sun exposure.
A brow lift relaxes these wrinkles to give your face a gentle and rested appearance, rather than an angry or exhausted look. This procedure may be performed on its own or with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as a facelift or blepharoplasty, for a combined effect of restoring the whole face.
The forehead lift for men
A handsome man has a strong, smooth forehead that does not look angry due to deep wrinkles or sagging eyelids. The eyebrows should run straight across the brow bone. If the eyebrows descend any farther, the eyelids are impeded and he looks tired. Our plastic surgeon offers a customised brow lift for men to address telltale signs of aging. The forehead lift will return the eyebrows to their higher position on the brow bone, but not so high that they appear feminine while allowing the muscles of the forehead to relax for smoother skin.
The brow lift for women
Women experience significant pressure to appear young and beautiful. A woman’s face should be gentle and smooth, with eyebrows that arch above the brow bone.
If the eyebrows are too low, she appears concerned, while eyebrows that are too high make her seem abnormally alarmed or excited. A brow lift can relax the wrinkles on a woman’s forehead and restore her youthful beauty.
