Brow Lift: Turning That Frown Upside Down

Many of the main indicators of aging can be found on a person’s face. One of the most common (and most annoying) of these indicators are frown lines. These lines are the bane of many women since daily skincare routines aren’t enough to keep these lines from appearing. Also, many of these daily skincare routines are frustratingly temporary.

It’s a good thing there’s the brow lift, which is a more permanent solution to frown lines.

Brow and foreheads are the first and most affected areas of the face when it comes to lines. As people age, the slightest expression can curl the skin into these lines. This loss of elasticity also causes the eyebrows to go down and droop. The result is that a person looks more tired than they really are. Other factors that contribute to the wrinkling include sun and wind exposure, and gravity.

A brow lift “lifts” the skin that’s sagging on the forehead, upper eyelids, and eyebrows, to give a person a younger look. Brow lift comes in two types – classic and endoscopic. Classic brow lift is done with a single cut from ear level, around the hairline. Facial plastic surgeons know where to cut for minimal scarring. Endoscopic lift, however, utilizes shorter cuts in the scalp. A small camera will be inserted into a cut, and the surgeon will perform the procedure from there.
