Brow Lift
What Can a Brow Lift Do?
Forehead wrinkles can make us look older than we feel, frown lines can make us look too serious, and drooping eyebrows can make us look grouchy or tired. Unfortunately, these are common signs of aging that appear when our skin loses elasticity.
The good news is that Dr. Zavell can combat these signs of aging by performing a brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, to reposition your brow and improve your facial features. A brow lift can:
Reposition the Eyebrows
Drooping eyebrows can cause hooded upper eyelids and make you look grumpy. Our plastic surgeon can reposition your eyebrows into a more attractive, friendly, and youthful position. This can also make you appear more alert.
Balance Your Appearance
A brow lift can balance your features and give your eyebrows a more defined and symmetrical arch, resulting in a more proportionate and symmetrical face.
Reduce Wrinkles
Frown lines between the eyebrows and deep creases across the forehead can be reduced significantly with a brow lift, without inhibiting your ability to make facial expressions.
Provide Natural-Looking Results
Dr. Zavell believes that cosmetic procedures should allow patients to achieve an improved version of themselves, rather than leaving them unrecognizable. Cosmetic surgery is an art form and our plastic surgeon works conservatively and meticulously to deliver natural-looking results.

What Happens During a Brow Lift Procedure?
On the day of your procedure, you can expect:
Brow lifts typically take one to two hours to complete. The results of your brow lift will be immediately apparent, but as the swelling dissipates and the incision lines fade, your final results will become more apparent.
Healing and Recovery
Immediately After Treatment
This is an outpatient procedure, meaning you will return home on the day of surgery. Our Toledo team will wrap your head in bandages to reduce swelling. These bandages should stay in place until your doctor recommends removing them.
In the Days Following Treatment
Patients should expect slight discomfort and bruising in the days following treatment. In most cases, you will be able to manage any tenderness with pain medication. If you experience any swelling during the first 24 hours, you can alleviate the effects with cold compresses applied to the area in 20-minute increments. The majority of our patients can return to work in about seven to 10 days.
Follow-up Appointment
At your first follow-up appointment at our practice in Toledo, OH, a member of our team will remove your stitches and provide any further post-operative instructions, if necessary. To ensure a successful and speedy recovery that gives you the best results, be sure to follow your plastic surgeon's guidelines.
Enhancing Results With Other Treatments
Brow lifts can be combined with other cosmetic facial treatments for stunning results. During your consultation at our Toledo office, you can explore all of your options with Dr. Zavell. Common procedures performed with brow lifts include:
Facelift
While a forehead lift focuses on treating signs of aging in the top third of the face, a facelift focuses on the bottom and middle thirds. A facelift can be performed at the same time as your brow lift to improve the appearance of jowls, fat deposits under the chin, and saggy skin.
Eyelid Surgery
While a forehead lift can correct sagging brows, eyelid surgery can remove excess skin and fat deposits in the lower and upper eyelids, in addition to tightening sagging skin. You can receive a forehead lift and eyelid surgery at the same time to meet your goals.
