Brow Lift

Forehead Lift

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, reduces wrinkles, improves frown lines and places the eyebrows in a youthful position.

Find a Plastic Surgeon

Who is a good candidate for a brow lift?

You may be a candidate for brow lift surgery if you:

Are physically healthy
Nonsmoker
Have a positive outlook and realistic goals

As we age, unsightly wrinkle lines may appear on the forehead. Frown lines between the brows can make us look angry or "too serious." Skin relaxation may cause the eyebrows to drop, hooding our upper eyelids and making us look tired. If you are bothered by these signs of aging in the brow region, a brow lift may be right for you.

On The Vlog

Eyelid Surgery or Brow Lift?
The best way to address common concerns around the eyes and forehead? That depends. ASPS member Alan Matarasso, MD, FACS, explains the difference between eyelid surgery and a brow lift – the relationship between the brow dropping and extra skin on the upper lid.
