What is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a procedure that reverses the effects of gravity and lifts the soft tissues of the forehead to restore a more alert, youthful contour to your forehead, upper eyelids and eyebrows. The procedure will also reduce horizontal wrinkles that have formed across the forehead, as well as deep vertical lines between the eyebrows and lines on the bridge of the nose.

Recovery from a brow lift is very straightforward, and recovery time depends on the extent of the procedure performed. Pain is typically very well controlled using oral prescription pain medications. You will see Doctor Petrungaro in his office within 1-2 days after your procedure to make sure you are feeling well and that you are progressing nicely.
During your recovery period your forehead may be taped and your head may be wrapped to help reduce swelling and bruising. It is important to keep your head elevated and avoid all strenuous activity until cleared by Doctor Petrungaro.
You can shower within 24-48 hours. Depending on the extent of the procedure, you will need to take up to one week off work. You can typically resume most physical activity after 4-6 weeks.
Brow Lift Results*
The results of a brow lift are visible immediately, and your results will continue to improve over the next few months after surgery as your swelling resolves and the incisions fade.
Your genes, skin quality, and skincare routine are important factors in the longevity of your brow lift. A healthy lifestyle along with careful sun protection will help extend the results of your brow lift.
It is important to remember that gravity can and will take its toll on your brow in the years following your surgery, but expect to enjoy your new look for many years.
