Brow Lift (Forehead Lift)

Brow Lift

The brow and the forehead can be the first areas to show signs of aging.  A heavy brow and drooping eyebrows can make you appear tired, angry, or older than your years.  Lifting the brow line creates a more refreshed, youthful appearance.

The Procedure

Dr. Diehl is experienced in several brow-lifting techniques including the coronal brow lift, the hairline lift, the mid-forehead lift, the endoscopic brow lift and the direct brow lift.  At your consultation, she will recommend the procedure that works with your specific needs.  Some of the factors that influence which procedure will work best for you include the position of your hairline, your hairstyle, the density of your hair, and the presence of “frown lines.”  All of these procedures are performed on an outpatient basis. 

The Recovery

You can expect tightness for the first two days after surgery, and discoloration and swelling around the eyes for the first week.  At that point, most patients can return to normal activities.
