Gravity, sun exposure, and stress can work together to cause the forehead and eyebrow region to descend as we age. This often results in excessive wrinkling and a tired, angry appearance. Forehead and brow lifting can correct these changes.

The use of state-of-the art endoscopic techniques, including tiny video cameras and minute incisions in the scalp, now allows forehead and brow lifts to be performed with minimal scarring and reduced recovery time. The procedures can be performed in conjunction with eyelid surgery or other facial rejuvenation procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions:
