Brow Lift (Aka Forehead Lift Or Browplasty)
Aging, gravity, and genetics can cause the brows and forehead to droop over time, leading to heavy eyelids, deep wrinkles, and a tired or stern appearance. At Tran Plastic Surgery, we offer a variety of nonsurgical and surgical brow lift options to restore balance to the upper face, smooth lines, and create a refreshed, youthful look.
What Is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift is a surgical procedure that elevates the eyebrows, repositions sagging tissue, and tightens forehead skin. By doing so, it helps:
- Reduce forehead wrinkles and frown lines
- Open the eye area for a brighter, more approachable look
- Improve eyebrow symmetry and contour
- Reverse a “tired” or “angry” expression caused by drooping brows
This procedure addresses the upper third of the face, much like a chin augmentation reshapes the lower third. For patients considering comprehensive facial rejuvenation, combining a brow lift with Asian blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery can yield even more dramatic results.
Brow Lift Techniques at Tran Plastic Surgery
Every patient’s needs are unique. During your consultation, Dr. Tuan Tran—a board-certified plastic surgeon in Huntington Beach—will recommend the most effective technique to achieve natural, lasting results.
1. Endoscopic Brow Lift
- Uses several small incisions hidden within the scalp
- A tiny camera (endoscope) guides precise adjustments
- Minimal scarring and faster recovery
- Best for patients with moderate sagging
- Results typically last 5–7 years
2. Coronal (Open) Brow Lift
- Traditional approach with an incision across the hairline
- Allows removal of excess skin and fat
- Excellent for patients with deep wrinkles or significant sagging
- Provides the longest-lasting results (10–15 years)
- Often chosen for facial feminization surgery due to its ability to refine the hairline and forehead contour
3. Temporal (Mini) Brow Lift
- Focuses on lifting the outer portion of the brows
- Subtle improvement for patients seeking a more arched, youthful brow shape
- Popular among younger patients who want a refreshed look without addressing the full forehead
- Results last 5–7 years
4. Thread Lift (Non-Surgical Option)
- Uses dissolvable PDO threads to reposition tissue
- Stimulates collagen production for smoother skin
- Results are more temporary, lasting up to 1 year
- A good option for patients who want to “test drive” the results of a brow lift before committing to surgery
