A surgical brow lift, often called an open or endoscopic brow lift effectively reposition the brow and tighten the underlying muscles and tissues. It can dramatically enhance the upper face by lifting the brow line and smoothing deep creases, restoring a youthful and alert appearance. Ideal candidates are those with noticeable sagging or deep forehead lines who are ready for a permanent change. The results are transformative, providing a refreshed look that can change how you perceive yourself.
One of the key benefits of a surgical brow lift is its longevity. Dr. Julie Edween, a renowned facial plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, uses advanced techniques to provide long-lasting results that create a natural and refreshed appearance. With proper care, results can last for many years, making it a great option for those wanting a more permanent solution.
Recovery from a brow lift typically takes around two weeks. While some swelling and discomfort are normal, following your surgeon’s post-operative instructions is crucial for optimal results. Most patients agree that the transformative effects are well worth the short recovery period.
The Non-Surgical Brow Lift: A Subtle Solution for a Youthful Appearance
The non-surgical brow lift has emerged as a popular option for those seeking a refreshed look without the commitment of surgery. This innovative approach utilizes injectable treatments like Botox and dermal fillers to achieve a lifted, youthful brow—perfect for younger individuals with mild sagging or those looking for a quick, non-invasive fix.
Tailored to your needs, the non-surgical brow lift can be approached with Botox alone or in a dual action approach which incorporates fillers. Botox is expertly injected into specific muscles that typically pull the brows downward. By relaxing these muscles, the forehead can naturally lift the brow, creating a more open and youthful appearance. Following this, dermal fillers are used to restore volume and support in the brow area, enhancing the overall lift and contour. This combination’s added benefit is that it helps smooth out any fine lines or creases on the forehead, providing a comprehensive refresh.
It’s important to note that they are temporary. Botox typically lasts between three to four months, while dermal fillers can offer results for up to a year. This temporality allows patients to test the waters—if you love the results, you can opt for regular touch-ups; a great option for those hesitant about surgery but curious about enhancing their appearance.
Surgical and non-surgical brow lifts offer different benefits depending on the desired outcome. Dr. Julie Edween in Beverly Hills can help you determine which approach best suits your needs, ensuring natural and youthful results that enhance your facial aesthetics.
