What is a Forehead Lift?

A forehead lift, also referred to as a brow lift, entails the stretching of skin into the hairline to eliminate brow furrows and raise the eyebrows. This often results in a more wide-awake, youthful look. A forehead lift is especially beneficial for individuals whose eyebrows or furrows give them a chronic angry, tired or sad facial expression.

If you are looking for a surgeon who has experience with brow lifts in Texas, then please schedule a consultation with Dr. David M. Turner. He and his staff in Austin, TX, specialize in helping men and women from surrounding cities, such as Round Rock and San Marcos, improve their appearance and self-esteem with an expert brow lift.

How is Forehead Lift Performed?

Our forehead lifts in Austin usually take place under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. A sedative or twilight anesthesia might also be administered to help you relax.

If you are getting a classic brow lift, the incision will stretch from one ear, up along the forehead and across the hairline to the other ear. Dr. Turner then lifts the skin of the forehead, trims it and closes the wound with stitches.

If you are getting an endoscopic forehead lift, Dr. Turner will make up to five small incisions (less than an inch in length) from the ear. An endoscope is inserted through one of the incisions, allowing a clear view of the muscles and tissues beneath the skin. Dr. Turner will then use the images he sees on a television monitor to guide his scalpel to the appropriate areas to remove excess flesh. The wounds are then closed with sutures.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Forehead Lift?

Dr. Turner and his team of Austin professionals can perform a brow lift on almost anyone, but it is usually not necessary for people younger than 40. If you have extreme furrowing between the brows due to squinting or other factors, a forehead lift can help give you a less strained or tired appearance.

What is the Recovery Process for a Forehead Lift?

Most people who have a brow lift with us in Austin are back to work within 10 days. However, you may not be able to wash your hair for about two weeks. The sutures from this operation are removed in one to three weeks, which is also about the time it is OK for women to wear foundation makeup again. Although a forehead lift does not reverse the hands of time, it can definitely make you appear better rested, more relaxed and youthful.
