A Forehead Lift Beverly Hills, also known as a Brow Lift, corrects heavy, drooping brows and the lines, grooves and wrinkles across the forehead and between the brows that make a person look tired, angry or even sad. The outcome is the return of the eyebrows to a higher and more natural position, a smoother-looking forehead and a refreshed appearance.

Generally, Forehead Lift Beverly Hills patients are men and women between 40 to 60 years of age. Many people who think they need Eyelid Surgery actually have brows that are too low, leading to extra skin that fatigues their eyelids, and impairs their vision. Candidates for a Forehead Lift Beverly Hills also include those who have nerve or traumatic injuries that cause their facial features to droop. While results vary for each individual, bald men may also undergo the procedure. However, those who wish to rid of fine wrinkle lines, acne scars, age spots and smoker's creases will not benefit from a Forehead Lift Beverly Hills.

During a Classic Coronal Forehead Lift, the plastic surgeon makes an incision, beginning at ear level and running across the top of your forehead and down the side of your head. If the patient is bald, the cosmetic surgeon may make a mid-scalp incision. The plastic surgeon then lifts the skin of the forehead, moving muscles and underlying tissues. The eyebrows may be lifted, and excess skin at the incision is trimmed away.The incision is closed through sutures or clips.

During an Endoscopic Forehead Lift, the cosmetic surgeon makes three to five short scalp incisions, instead of one long one, each less than one inch in length. He or she then inserts an endoscope – a thin flexible tube connected to a camera that is used to view and perform surgery through small incisions. By inserting another instrument into a different incision, the plastic surgeon lifts forehead skin, cuts muscles and underlying tissues that cause frown lines and may also lift the eyebrows so they are sutured into a higher position. Benefits of the Endoscopic Brow Lift include less scarring and numbness, and less severe lifting of the hairline. Endoscopic Brow Lift patients also generally experience less itching as an aftereffect than is true of a Classic Coronal Brow Lift.

Other procedures include the Trans-Palpebral Forehead Lift, by which the plastic surgeon disables the frown muscles through an eyelid incision. During the Direct Skin Excision Brow Lift, the plastic surgeon lifts the brow through excision of the skin above it. However, this procedure creates a visible scar at the brow line, and also has a high risk of creating an unnatural, surprised look.

Forehead Lift Beverly Hills is sometimes performed simultaneously with other procedures, such as Eyelid Surgery or resurfacing techniques to improve skin tone.
