Forehead Lift Chicago, IL | Meadows Plastic Surgery

Understanding Brow Lift Surgery

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce visible signs of aging in the forehead region. Meadows Plastic Surgery offers this transformative procedure to minimize deep horizontal creases, soften frown lines, and elevate eyebrow positioning for a more refreshed appearance.

Surgical Techniques

Meadows Plastic Surgery utilizes two primary brow lift techniques:

• Classic Lift: Involves a long incision across the top of the head
• Endoscopic Lift: Utilizes three to five smaller incisions at the hairline

The chosen technique depends on individual facial characteristics, including skin texture, bone structure, and aesthetic goals.

Procedure Details

Brow lift surgery typically takes one to two hours and is performed under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation. Meadows Plastic Surgery surgeons carefully reposition underlying tissue and muscles to achieve a natural, rejuvenated appearance.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial swelling to subside within two weeks, with complete healing occurring over six months. The procedure offers immediate results, creating more open and youthful-looking eyes while significantly reducing forehead creases.

Potential Risks

Like all surgical procedures, brow lifts carry potential risks, including:

• Temporary hair loss around incision sites
• Potential facial asymmetry
• Possible nerve injury
• Temporary eye dryness or irritation

Minimizing Surgical Risks

Meadows Plastic Surgery minimizes complications by employing board-certified plastic surgeons with extensive experience in facial rejuvenation procedures.
