Brow Lift Surgery | Forehead Lift Surgery

If you want to smooth away a tense, angry, or furrowed brow, consider a forehead lift, in which the forehead skin and brows are lifted up. Forehead-lifts, also known as brow-lifts, are often paired with eyelid surgery to minimize wrinkles and to lift sagging skin in the upper face. A survey finds that most patients who underwent a brow or forehead lift said they'd definitely or probably undergo the surgery again when asked about it years later. Most also said they'd recommend it to others.
