FOREHEAD
If you are looking for a forehead lift in Baton Rouge then Williamson Cosmetic Center has a professional team waiting to answer your questions. A forehead lift offers a solution for those patients who are burdened with a sagging brow or deep furrows between their eyes. This procedure is frequently performed in association with an upper eyelid blepharoplasty to raise the eyebrows and reduce the amount of skin that needs to be removed from the upper eyelids. Several small incisions are made behind the hairline and a small camera is used for visualization to remove the muscle that produces the frown lines and reposition the eyebrows at a higher level.
A brow lift:
- Diminishes the creases that develop across the forehead, or those that occur high on the bridge of the nose, between the eyes
- Reduces the presence of what are commonly referred to as frown lines, vertical creases that develop between the eyebrows
- Repositions a low or sagging brow that is hooding the upper eyelid
- Raises the eyebrows to a more alert and youthful position
DIRECT BROW LIFTS
A direct brow lift at Williamson Cosmetic Center is a procedure that restores a more youthful, reinvigorated look to the area above the eyes. The procedure corrects drooping or sagging eyebrows and improves the horizontal lines and furrows that can make a person appear angry, sad or tired. Brow lift surgery works by removing tissues that cause the brow to droop, allowing the brow lift to create a smoother looking forehead. This is accomplished by making a small incision above the brow hairs. The incision in camouflaged in the wrinkle lines above the brow or within the brow hairs itself.
INDIRECT BROW LIFTS
This type of brow lifting surgery works by utilizing an incision in the eyelid crease and tunneling underneath the eyebrow and securing the brow in an elevated position. This procedure enhances the brow height while minimizing external scarring.
Recovery
Recovery time varies widely from patient to patient based on health, post-surgery activity, and behaviors. Elevation of the head is extremely helpful in reducing the initial post-operative swelling. Williamson Cosmetic Center specialist may also advise you to use rehabilitative aids such as ice packs and wraps. You should avoid Aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications for the first few days after your surgery. Smoking and exposure to second-hand smoke should be avoided to prevent delays in the healing process.
Results of Your Forehead Lift
The results of your Forehead Lift may be subtle or dramatic, depending on your appearance prior to the surgery as well as the specific goals that you and your plastic surgeon have established.
