Brow Lift - Plastic Surgery | Prof. Dr ASIM AYDIN

What is brow lift?

All patients who complain of excess skin on the upper eyelids that impair vision should be evaluated according to their eyebrow positions. Removing the upper eyelid skin without paying attention to the eyebrow position does not provide long-term patient satisfaction.

When you come to our clinic with the complaint of excess upper lid skin, we definitely evaluate your eyebrow positions. If the droopy eyelid disappears when the eyebrows are raised, we show you, then the brow lift may be the procedure you’re looking for. If you’ve had an upper blepharoplasty before but are starting to notice droopy eyelids again, you may be considering another procedure. Again, eyebrow-raising is probably the right solution for your problem.

How is eyebrow lifting done?

The new position and shape of the eyebrows are determined together with the patient during the examination. Eyebrows can be lifted or reshaped by various methods. We never rely on any thread for brow lift. Although we have performed many endoscopic brow lift procedures, nowadays we prefer scar subcutaneous techniques limited to incisions above the brow, forehead, hairline or hairline, depending on age, gender, hairstyle and patient preference. . We avoid forehead lifts with coronal incisions at the hairline or through the hair unless absolutely necessary, as they can result in a very long and prominent scar. We often perform brow lifts in conjunction with other surgeries or treatments to provide enhanced effects to our patients. These procedures may include eyelid surgery and/or BOTOX®.

Who is a good candidate for brow lift?

A healthy, non-smoker or excessively sun-exposed person will experience the longest lasting results of a brow lift. Also, realistic expectations are important. The purpose of brow lift is to reduce lines and wrinkles but still make the patient look natural.

We often perform the brow lift operation under local anesthesia. We often use it together with other face lift operations to maintain the youthful balance on the face.
