A brow lift may also be referred to as a forehead lift, and involves the lifting and smoothing of the area from the eyebrows to the hairline. The effects of aging often take their toll on the upper portion of the face first, resulting in horizontal creases across the forehead and a sagging brow line that makes you look older and more tired than you really are. A brow lift in Austin effectively eliminates lines and sagging, to produce a refreshed, more youthful appearance.
A brow lift is used to address the following concerns:
A brow lift may be performed alone or in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures, such as an eyelid lift or facelift, to produce more dramatic results.
Dr. Sanjay Sharma offers brow lifts as an outpatient procedure at his Austin office. The procedure is often performed under local anesthesia with sedation, but general anesthesia may also be recommended for some patients. During the procedure, Dr. Sharma makes incisions along the hairline to allow him to remove excess skin and tissue and tighten any underlying skin structure.
In some cases, a brow lift may be performed endoscopically, which means smaller incisions and a less invasive procedure. However, endoscopic brow lifts are not right for everyone. Dr. Sharma will discuss your specific concerns and goals for your surgery before recommending the best technique for your needs. Both endoscopic and traditional brow lifts involve incisions along the hairline, leaving scarring nearly invisible after surgery.
Brow lifts typically take one to two hours to perform. Most patients are able to return to work within a week after the procedure. Drains are usually not necessary after a brow lift and most patients report minimal discomfort during the recovery process.
Results of a brow lift may be evident right away, but will continue to improve as the treatment area heals completely. Full results are usually apparent within six months after the procedure. The forehead area will appear smoother and the eyes and brow area will look more awake and youthful. Results from a brow lift are considered permanent, although additional mild sagging may occur over the years.
A brow lift offers dramatic results that make you appear refreshed and younger. To learn more about this procedure, contact Plastic Surgery Austin at 512-324-2765 to schedule your appointment today.
I had a cut tendon that was not initially diagnosed (elsewhere). I was in surgery less than 24 hrs after seeing Dr. Sharma. The coordination with Dell Setton UT, covid precautions, and Dr. Sharma’s team was fast and smooth. The surgery went great and I am on the way to being able to use my thumb again! The follow up with Occupational Therapy is excellent. So many people helping me along is a humbling experience.
Dr Sharma and Sarah Ellis are both amazing and helpful. Dr Sharma cares as does his staff and he beyond does his homework. Love this medical group!
I felt like I was taken care of like their family. My specialty needs were met, and they are providing aftercare exactly the same way. My special care continues, and I am so happy to share my experiences with everyone!!
He explained everything about the steps that I need to do before the surgery, and my sister and I felt like he was very caring and compassionate to my needs and really wanting to help me out and get my questions answered about what I will be facing, and overall I felt like my dream and future will become a reality for me. And an answer to my prayers and having a hope for a better life and great outcome for my future.
Individual attention concerning my welfare was over and above my expectations. Best medical care you could ask for. Thank you DR. SHARMA AND YOUR TEAM!
