Forehead Lift

Who is a good candidate?

• Your forehead sags or your brows hang too low and too close to your eyes.
• You have deep furrows between the eyebrows (frown lines).

Description of the Procedure

• The procedure is done on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia.
• The incisions are usually made behind the hairline. For patients with high foreheads, the incisions can be placed in front of the hairline.
• The forehead skin is lifted and repositioned. The muscles that cause frown lines are weakened.

Recovery time is approximately 10 days. The results last about ten years.
