What is a brow-lift?

Johns Hopkins Medicine answered:As we age, it is quite common for the brow and forehead area to change - wrinkles and frown lines begin to show. The eyebrows can also fall lower, crowding the eyes.
If you feel uncomfortable with the changes in your brow and forehead, a browlift can raise your brows and thereby lesson the appearance of forehead wrinkles and frown lines. A browlift can also improve the overall appearance of the upper eye, making the eyes appear larger, and more open. The shape of the eyebrows can be made more appealing.
The procedure that your doctor uses for your surgery will depend on your particular physical characteristics.
