Brow Lift

The eyes are widely recognized as one of the first and most obvious signs of facial aging. The reason for this is that the eyes are the main focus during human interaction. We are constantly looking at other peoples' eyes, and are inherently able to recognize aging based on what we see. Although almost all women recognize the contribution of the eyebrows to facial beauty as seen by the plethora of brow contouring trends, most patients fail to appreciate the contribution of a sagging eyebrow to aging.

Dr. Albright will often discuss the role of surgical correction of eyebrow sagging during consultations for eyelid (blepharoplasty) surgery, as they are both intrinsically linked to facial aging. He may recommend combining these procedures to achieve a more dramatic and harmonious look.

Brow Lift FAQ’s

How are the brows lifted?

Several techniques exist to achieve a lifted brow position. These include direct excision either just above the brow or along the scalp hairline, or suture suspension with the use of various anchoring techniques and access incisions. Dr. Albright will discuss the relative risks and benefits of these different approaches with you.

What is the recovery like for a brow lift?

Brow lift recovery depends on what surgical techniques were utilized during your procedure. Dr. Albright and his staff will help you plan for your specific brow lift recovery. Most patients will have swelling and bruising immediately after surgery, and can even develop a "black eye". Patients should account for this in their postoperative recovery plans. Typically it is about 1-2 weeks before one can be presentable in public with make-up concealing the bruises. The swelling is more difficult to mask, but will mostly have resolved by about 2 months after surgery. Final results are achieved when swelling is completely resolved (3-5 months), and scars have matured (8-12 months).

Can a brow lift be combined with another procedure?

Yes! In fact, Dr Albright often combines browlift with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to create a more dramatic improvement in facial rejuvenation. It can also be combined with chemical peels, or face/neck lifts.

“ Dr. Albright is a skilled and precise surgeon. At my first appointment
Dr. Albright and his staff are extremely skilled and knowledge. Being an RN and knowing details about surgical complications and post op infection risks, I wouldn’t go to any other plastic surgeons in town. He absolutely wants the best results and is willing to take the time needed to achieve that goal. Dr. Albright is realistic about expectations and outcomes and takes the time during procedures to do it right. I highly recommend Dr. Albright without reservations. ”

“ I recently had breast augmentation, and I am so pleased with my results. He spent a great deal of time explaining my options, listening to what I wanted, and providing his opinion. I visited other surgeons in the area and didn’t feel any of the others listened or cared quite like Dr. Albright. Not only do I recommend Dr. Albright, hospital nurses commented to me that he is the best! ”

“ Dr. Albright is a caring professional - he answers all questions thoroughly and takes as much time as necessary. He is an exceptional doctor. Everyone is friendly, caring and shows genuine concern for how the patient is feeling - I felt comfortable the first time I met Dr. Albright and his staff. This continued on every visit. ”
