Forehead Lift

The upper portion of the face, including the forehead, eyebrows, temples, and eyelids, reveals visible signs of aging. These often manifest as:

  • Deepening forehead wrinkles: Horizontal and vertical lines become more prominent over time, contributing to a tired appearance.
  • Brow drooping: The loss of skin elasticity and collagen allows the forehead skin to sag downwards, potentially affecting eyebrow position.

Forehead Lift: Rejuvenation Option.

While forehead lift surgery was traditionally used to address these concerns, minimally invasive option, such as botulinum toxin applications are increasingly popular. This injectable treatment relaxes wrinkle-causing muscles, smoothing out forehead lines for a temporary period (typically 3-4 months). It is a non-surgical option with minimal downtime.

Surgical Forehead Lift

For individuals seeking more permanent correction, a surgical forehead lift may be an option. Here's an overview:

Procedure: Performed under general anesthesia, the surgeon can choose either an open or endoscopic approach. Open techniques involve incisions within the hairline, while endoscopic methods utilize smaller incisions and specialized instruments.

Benefits: Aims to smooth forehead wrinkles, elevate sagging brows, and create a more youthful appearance.

  • Individualized Approach: Each patient's needs and preferences are unique. Discussing various options with Dr Varsak is essential to determine the most suitable approach.
  • Realistic Expectations: Forehead lift surgery aims to improve, not erase, signs of aging. It's important to have realistic expectations about the outcome.
  • Non-surgical alternatives: Botox and other non-surgical options can offer temporary improvements with minimal downtime and may be preferable for some individuals.
