What is Eyebrow Lift? 

Eyebrow lift also referred to as a forehead lift, is a procedure that witnesses the diminishing of the deep wrinkles on the forehead by upbringing the eyebrows.

How is Eyebrow Lift surgery done? 

During the operation, the surgeon gives anesthesia to the patient first to provide a more comfortable surgical experience. In the classic eyebrow lift procedure, a cut is made through the top of the ear to the hairline. This cut reaches the other ear, enabling the surgeon to lift the forehead skin and modify its tissue to provide a proper eyebrow lift. Then, the cuts are stitched back either through sutures, skin adhesives, or special clips. 

The reasons for having Eyebrow Lift

Aging can be pointed at as the main reason why people want to have an eyebrow lift. Since the natural process of aging often causes eyebrows to lower, reduces the space between the eyes and the brows and leads to the loss of skin flexibility, people at older ages tend to demand an eyebrow lift more. That being said, there are also other reasons for having an eyebrow lift, including lower eyebrows that create a sad, angry, or tired look on the face. Saggy upper eyelids are yet another reason why people want to have an eyebrow lift. Eyebrow lifts before and after photos reveal the impact of the procedure on a person’s face.
