If you are concerned about frown lines, sagging brows or deep creases on your forehead, a brow lift might be able to restore a smoother appearance.
A brow lift aims to reduce the signs of ageing. The procedure can smooth out the creases that develop across the forehead or high on the bridge of the nose, improve expression or frown lines and elevate a low or sagging brow. Raising the eyebrows can fix hooding over the upper eyelid to make you appear more alert.
During your consultation, Dr Lim will discuss all your options, as in some cases, a brow lift may be performed with other procedures, such as a Meloplasty (Facelift) or eyelid surgery.
All surgical procedures leave scars to some degree. In the case of a brow lift, incisions are made either in the hairline or slightly behind the hairline. This extends into a hidden scar in the temple area. Depending on a number of factors, keyhole surgery (with an endoscope) may be used behind the hairline. In cases where there are very deep furrows that run the length of your forehead, a longer incision may be required.
Dr Lim will do his best to minimise scarring, and all available options and outcomes, including the location and length of your incision, will be discussed with you in the consultation process.
Performed under general anaesthetic in an accredited hospital. The procedure involves removing wrinkled skin, creating a naturally tighter appearance. Excess skin may be removed to aid in the appearance of the eyelid.
After surgery your head may be wrapped in bandages which will be removed the next day. You may develop bruising around the eyes which will disappear in a few days.
You may be required to stay in hospital overnight following your surgery. Dr Lim will review you post-operatively and prescribe analgesia and antibiotics that will aid healing and reduce the potential for infection and bruising.
My Klinik staff will stay in touch with you after the procedure, monitor your progress and answer any questions or concerns as they arise. You’ll have reviews with Dr Lim one week, one month and three months after surgery.
Our goal is to make your experience as supportive as possible — Dr Lim and the My Klinik staff are always willing to answer any questions you may have.
