Brow Lift Stockton, CA | Dr Nathan A. Kludt, MD

Brow Lift Overview

A brow lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to help men and women achieve a more youthful appearance by addressing specific facial concerns. The primary goals include removing deep grooves between the eyebrows and correcting droopy eyebrows and sagging upper eyelids that can make patients look tired, sad, or angry.

Key Benefits of Brow Lift

• Reduces deep grooves between eyebrows
• Corrects drooping eyebrow position
• Improves upper eyelid appearance
• Restores a more refreshed, alert facial expression

Surgical Techniques for Brow Lift

Plastic Surgery Center of Stockton offers three primary brow lift approaches:

1. Open Method Techniques

Open methods involve an incision across the head, either in front of the hairline or further back within the scalp. This approach allows for comprehensive correction of forehead and brow concerns.

2. Closed Endoscopic Method

The closed method utilizes several small incisions behind the hairline and employs an endoscope, a small telescope-like device, to perform precise adjustments. This technique minimizes visible scarring and reduces recovery time.

3. Combination Method

Combination techniques focus on temple area incisions and use an endoscope to correct the middle forehead and brow region. The specific method recommended will depend on individual patient needs and desired outcomes.

Procedure Details

Brow lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. The typical surgery duration ranges from 1-2 hours, depending on the chosen approach and individual patient requirements.

Recovery and Expectations

• Return to normal routine within one week
• Avoid strenuous activities during initial healing
• Facial features settle naturally within weeks
• Optimal surgical results may take several months to fully manifest

Complementary Procedures

Brow lift is often closely related to upper eyelid rejuvenation. In many cases, what appears to be excess upper eyelid skin is actually the result of sagging forehead skin, making a brow lift an effective solution for facial rejuvenation.
