Forehead Lift

(Brow lift)

For some, a drooping brow line, frown lines, heavy eyelids and wrinkling across the forehead create an unwanted tired or even angry look. Dr. Samaha performs a forehead-plasty or "brow-lift" to correct this problem and rejuvenate the upper one-third of the face, creating a refreshed, more alert appearance.

In a forehead lift, the muscles and tissues that cause furrowing or drooping are removed or altered to smooth the forehead, raise the eyebrows and minimize frown lines. Brow-lifts can be performed using an endoscope, a viewing instrument that allows the procedure to be performed with hidden, minimal incisions and invasiveness.

The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation, or under general anesthesia.
