Comparing Surgical and Non-Surgical Brow Lifts

Brow lift is a great way to brighten up the face and enhance your appearance. Brow lifting may be used to adjust asymmetric eyebrows and to some extent, change the shape or angle of the eyebrows to improve symmetry and overall look. Facial plastic surgeons offer both surgical and non-surgical brow lifts to rejuvenate the face and give it a more youthful, fresh appearance. Keep reading to see the difference between surgical and non-surgical brow lifts in facial plastic surgery

Surgical Brow Lift

The purpose of a brow lift is to move the eyebrows to a higher position, improve the upper eyelid appearance, and reduce any creasing between the eyebrows. Surgical brow lifts are a facial plastic surgery that can give a natural and lifted effect with minimal scarring and rest time. 

The incision is made at the hairline or in the hair to hide the scar. Skilled facial plastic surgeons know the techniques on how to make a brow lift look effortlessly natural, not forced with excessive lift. Since it is a surgical treatment, you will need to be under anesthesia for this brow lift. The effects of this type of facial plastic surgery typically lasts around fifteen years and can be combined with other plastic surgeries, like an eyelid surgery or facelift, to fully freshen up one’s appearance. 

Non-Surgical Brow Lift

Non-surgical brow lifts are ideal for those experiencing mild drooping around the eye with minimal signs or aging. Like many non-surgical facial plastic surgery options, filler can be used to gently lift the brow without surgery. There are many positives to this option. There are no incisions or recovery time, minimal risks, and is great for those looking for a subtle enhancement. Depending on the filler option, results of a non-surgical brow lift can last up to a year without any added maintenance.
