Forehead Lift (Brow Lift) Southbury, CT | Aesthetique Cosmetic & Laser Surgery Center, L.L.C., Prasad Sureddi, MD

Understanding Brow Lift Surgery

Deep furrows, frown lines, drooping eyebrows, and hood-like skin over the eyes can make individuals appear older than their actual age. A forehead lift, or brow lift, can restore a more youthful, animated, and alert appearance by addressing these facial concerns.

Eyebrow Positioning and Aesthetic Impact

Subtle changes in eyebrow height can significantly influence perceived age and eye appearance. A high-arched eyebrow typically signifies youth and can enhance eye attractiveness. Drooping eyebrows may:

• Hood the eyelids
• Detract attention from the eyes
• Potentially interfere with peripheral vision

Gender-Specific Considerations

Men and women have different natural eyebrow positions. Male eyebrows are naturally positioned lower, which requires careful surgical approach to prevent overly feminizing results. Dr. Sureddi takes precise care to maintain natural masculine facial characteristics during the procedure.

Brow Lift Surgical Techniques

Standard Forehead Lift

Dr. Sureddi performs the standard forehead lift through a hairline incision, recommended for severe age-related forehead and eyebrow issues. The procedure typically takes approximately two hours and can be performed with intravenous sedation or general anesthesia.

Endoscopic Option

For less severe cases, an endoscopic approach using five to six small scalp incisions can improve forehead grooves and raise eyebrows. This technique offers a less invasive alternative for suitable candidates.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect to return to work within ten days and resume routine activities after three weeks. Minor numbness in the forehead and scalp may persist for several months. The procedure can make patients appear five to ten years younger with subtle, natural-looking improvements.

Alternative Non-Surgical Options

For individuals with less pronounced forehead concerns, non-surgical alternatives like BOTOX® Cosmetic injections or chemical peels might provide satisfactory results.
