Brow lift La Jolla by Umansky Plastic Surgery
Brow Lift in La Jolla, CA | Umansky Plastic Surgery
Understanding Brow Lift Procedures
A youthful brow is characterized by its position above the orbital rim, featuring a gradual lateral arch with an elevated tail. As individuals age, the brow often assumes a flatter, horizontal position. A brow lift represents a sophisticated method of rejuvenating the upper third of the facial region.
What is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift, alternatively known as a forehead lift or browplasty, counteracts gravitational effects by elevating forehead soft tissues. This procedure restores a more youthful contour to the forehead skin, upper eyelids, and eyebrows through various surgical techniques.
