A heavy brow or deep forehead lines can make you seem older or more fatigued than you feel. Fortunately, a brow lift at Hamptons Plastic Surgery can help smooth wrinkles, reposition the brow line, and restore a more open, alert appearance.
Dr. Tracy Pfeifer, who is double board-certified by both the American Board of Surgery and the American Board of General Surgery, offers modern facial procedures to deliver a refreshed and natural look. She serves patients in Suffolk County and the Hamptons.
Brow Lift Basics
A brow lift or forehead lift elevates the brow line and reduces forehead creases. It addresses visible signs of aging in the upper face by tightening underlying tissues and smoothing the skin.
Patients often choose this surgery when they feel that their drooping brows or deep expression lines give them a tired, angry, or aged look.
Benefits of a Brow Lift
Patients seek brow lifts for both cosmetic and functional reasons. Key benefits include:
- A more rested and alert appearance
- Smoother horizontal lines across the forehead
- Lifted, more youthful eyebrow positioning
- Improved symmetry between the brows
- Longer-lasting results compared to non-surgical treatments
Many patients notice that after surgery, their facial expressions better reflect how they feel on the inside, whether that’s calm, confident, or energized.
Your Brow Lift Options
There are different surgical techniques for lifting the brow, and the right choice depends on your facial structure, goals, and skin condition:
- Endoscopic brow lift: A minimally invasive procedure with small incisions hidden within the hairline.
- Coronal brow lift: A more traditional approach with a longer incision across the scalp.
- Temporal brow lift: Addresses the outer brow and provides a subtle, more targeted lift.
What to Expect from the Procedure
A brow lift can be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. During surgery, Dr. Pfeifer makes small incisions – usually within the hairline – to reposition tissue, raise the brow, and remove or adjust muscles that cause frown lines.
After the procedure, you’ll have some bruising, swelling, and numbness. These symptoms usually improve within one to two weeks.
Most individuals return to work or social activities in 10–14 days. Full results become visible as swelling subsides, revealing a more lifted and youthful upper face.
Is a Brow Lift Right for You?
You may be a good candidate for a brow lift if:
- Your brow line has dropped, making you look tired or stern.
- You have deep lines across your forehead or between your brows.
- You’re in good general health and have realistic expectations.
Some patients combine a brow lift with eyelid surgery or a facelift for more thorough facial rejuvenation. You can explore all your options during your consultation.
