Brow Lift

Roslyn Heights, NY

Introduction

Brow Lift services offered in Long Island and Roslyn Heights, NY

A brow lift is a cosmetic procedure that raises the eyebrows. It’s also known as a forehead lift or forehead rejuvenation. A brow lift improves the appearance of the forehead, the brow, and the area around the eyes. The procedure involves raising the soft tissue and skin of the forehead and brow.

Our team at Plastic Surgery Associates of Long Island (PSAOLI) proudly serves patients throughout Long Island, including Roslyn, Roslyn Heights, Garden City, and Manhasset, NY.

What Is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift is performed to combat signs of aging in the upper face, including wrinkles, lines, and skin laxity. When low-hanging brows obstruct vision, the surgery can restore your field of vision and quality of life. Our brow lifts on Long Island are often paired with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as blepharoplasty, fillers, or BOTOX, to maximize results and more comprehensively reverse the signs of aging.

Triple-board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Sotirios Papafragkou & Dr. Susie Rhee offer the following brow lift techniques:

  • Endoscopic brow lift: A very slender camera is threaded through a small incision, enabling your surgeon to achieve the highest degree of precision and artistry when contouring the upper face.
  • Temporal brow lift: This technique targets sagging skin on either side of the brow, creating a more youthful, rejuvenated look.
  • Coronal brow lift: With a coronal brow lift, your surgeon will create an incision across the top of the scalp from one side to the other, elevating sunken contours and creating a powerful transformation.

What’s the First Step?

Your Long Island brow lift journey begins with an informative introductory consultation. Dr. P or Dr. Rhee will examine you, review your medical history, and discuss your goals for improvement, using this information to craft a tailored treatment plan that addresses your aesthetic concerns. You will also gain a clearer understanding of the procedure’s risks, benefits, downtime, costs, and potential results, helping you to form realistic expectations. Once you and the doctor decide to move forward, we will book your appointment. You will then receive a customized pre-surgical checklist to follow, helping to streamline the treatment process.

First Step

What to Expect on the Day of a Brow Lift Surgery

On the day of your procedure in Long Island, you’ll be warmly welcomed by our friendly team. We will place you in a comfortable surgical suite and briefly review your care plan, responding to any last-minute questions or concerns. You will then be given general anesthesia, ensuring that you rest peacefully while your personal plastic surgeon refines your forehead and brows.

Once you are asleep, the doctor will make small incisions in accordance with your personalized treatment plan. Incisions are usually made within the temples, the hairline, or across the top of the crown. Through your incisions, Dr. P or Dr. Rhee will firm the underlying muscle, tissue, and fat layers before removing sagging, excess skin. This meticulous approach ensures symmetry and balance, delivering a final result that exceeds expectations.

Once all changes have been made, the doctor will close your incisions and wrap your upper face in a dressing or bandage. You will be placed in our recovery area and monitored until the doctor feels you can safely return home.

Brow Lift Recovery

Your Guide to Post-Brow Lift Care

After surgery, you will need to be escorted home by a responsible adult, as you will still be groggy from anesthesia. Mild swelling, bruising, and soreness are common side effects after a brow lift. These symptoms typically peak during the first postoperative week and then gradually resolve. You will be prescribed oral painkillers to help keep you comfortable as you heal. Most of our patients on Long Island can resume work within 7-10 days, provided their jobs are not physically demanding. Be sure to avoid strenuous activities and heavy workouts for 4-6 weeks.
