Eyebrow Lift and Forehead Rejuvenation in Tarzana

The eyebrows, in women, are a very feminizing facial feature and are among the first facial features to show the effects of aging and gravity. The eyebrows begin to sag, with the outer portion affected more significantly. This changes the shape of the eyes from almond to round and imparts an aged, relatively masculine quality to the eyes. Brow lifts and forehead lifts raise lowered eyebrows, making them more symmetric and aesthetically pleasing. This restores a more rested, natural, and youthful appearance to the eyes and face.

Brow Lifts and Forehead Lifts are procedures designed to rejuvenate the eyebrows and forehead by elevating the eyebrows to a more pleasing position. Brow lifts may also be used to soften lines and wrinkles on the forehead. Forehead Lifts are currently performed using several methods.

Traditional brow lift surgery involves an incision along the hairline from ear to ear, lifting the skin and adjusting the muscles in the brow. More recently, the endoscopic brow lift has become a popular alternative. Results are usually good, with small incisions in the hairline. For patients with mild heaviness to their brow, Dr. Ghasri recommends trying Botox injections prior to surgery.

BOTOX Cosmetic smoothes out wrinkles by weakening and relaxing the muscles that cause skin to wrinkle. More than just smoothing out worry and frown lines, Botox injections can create a lifting effect by relaxing the muscles that pull down on the eyebrows. This raises the ends of the eyebrows into a more pleasing arch (correcting a downward slanting “sad eyes” appearance) and opens the eyes, reducing the “hooded” appearance common in middle-aged eyes.

This procedure is appropriate for mild brow drooping only. If you are a better candidate for surgical brow lift, Dr. Ghasri will discuss referring you during your consultation.

Patients interested in eyebrow lift treatments in Tarzana can schedule a consultation with Castle Dermatology Institute to determine the best treatment plan for their facial rejuvenation.
