    A brow lift is a procedure that is performed to elevate the eyebrows. A brow lift can make the eyes appear larger and more open, create a more suitable shape to the brows and lessening the lines and wrinkles of the forehead. These changes can produce a remarkable effect – particularly if done in a skillful manner to produce a subtle and natural appearing result.

    A brow lift is a surgical operation to reset the position of the forehead and eyebrows.  Typically as we age, gravity and the effects of stress from daily living result in sagging or drooping of the brow.  Most frequently a drooped brow is the cause for descent of the eyelids and restricted peripheral vision from the sagging skin.  The operation entails lifting and setting the brow in a newer higher position, usually with incisions usually hidden behind the hairline.

    A brow lift is a surgical procedure where a plastic surgeon makes an incision in the hairline and pulls up the skin on your forehead. This procedure raises the eyebrows and lessens the wrinkles on the forehead. Talk to your physician if you are considering a brow lift.

    Dr. Stuart Linder answered:
    A brow lift is a surgical procedure in which the forehead and the upper brow are elevated. This can be done by either open technique (coronal) in which an incision is made across the anterior hairline or closed approach (endoscopic). The endoscopic brow lift used a camera and an endoscope to elevate the forehead and temporal areas with 3-4 small incisions only. Less incidence of alopecia and numbers with the closed/endoscopic approach.
