An ideal way to target deep facial folds on the forehead is with a brow lift. It is also known as a forehead lift and can effectively restore a youthful appearance. The procedure removes excess skin and tightens the muscles on the forehead. Many people choose to have this procedure because deep facial folds can make individuals look tired. With a brow lift, this problem is corrected and helps individuals look refreshed.
Classic Brow Lift
With this technique, your doctor will reposition the muscles and excess skin will be removed. While this technique is still being used, the other types of brow lift techniques are more common because they are less invasive.
Recovery and Aftercare Following a Brow Lift
Usually, a brow lift is administered as an outpatient surgery. While most individuals don’t experience any pain following the procedure, there may be slight discomfort, and your forehead may feel tight as well. You may experience some swelling after your surgery. There are some individuals who can return to work before one week, but most individuals will need to take a few weeks off from work to fully recover. Most individuals can resume exercise and other activities multiple weeks after the procedure.
It is important to keep in mind that while the results of your procedure are long-lasting, the aging process will continue. However, if you maintain a healthy lifestyle, such as wearing sunscreen and not smoking, you will maintain your results much longer.
