Forehead Rejuvenation Brow Lift Lake Oswego, OR | Dr. Mark A. Petroff, MD

What is Brow Lift Surgery?

Brow lifts (forehead surgery) can revitalize excessively wrinkled foreheads with drooping eyebrows. The procedure can help patients look less angry, sad, or tired. Board-certified facial plastic surgeon in Lake Oswego, OR Dr. Mark A. Petroff has decades of experience using minimally invasive (endoscopic) methods to smooth lines and raise the eyebrows for a more youthful appearance.

Endoscopic brow lifts are less extensive and do not harm or remove any scalp or hair. They only require small incisions, and in the hands of an experienced facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Petroff, excellent, long-term results can be attained that look natural and not at all "pulled."

Brow Lift Procedure Details

Prior to your procedure, Dr. Petroff will meet with you during a one-on-one consultation to determine which brow lift technique may be right for you. The surgery is an outpatient procedure performed using local anesthetic and IV sedation.

Dr. Petroff makes 3-5 short incisions behind the hairline and uses an endoscope to guide the lifting and muscle adjustment process. The eyebrows are secured using a resorbable fixation device called Ultratine®.

Recovery and Results

Brow lift surgery typically takes about 2 hours. Most patients take 1–3 weeks to recover and can usually return to work within 2 weeks. Temporary bruising, discomfort, and numbness are common in the first few days post-surgery.

While visible improvements can be seen immediately, final results are usually apparent 4–6 months after the surgery.

Natural, Refreshed Appearance

Dr. Petroff focuses on creating a younger, natural-looking appearance that refreshes the face. Patients will look more awake, alert, and like the age they feel, without appearing obviously surgically enhanced.
