Drooping brows may cause you to appear angry, tired, or older than you feel. In addition to other features on your upper face, the brow expresses a wide range of emotions.
Sometimes called forehead lifts, brow lifts are facial surgery procedures designed to tighten the skin and tissues on the forehead to establish a more youthful, rested appearance. Some patients are concerned that brow lift surgery will cause them to look perpetually surprised. However, it’s important to realize that the goal of any cosmetic procedure is to help you appear naturally beautiful, not “worked on.”
Dr. Lee takes pride in his long-lasting reputation for excellence and works diligently to ensure that every patient looks elegantly refreshed and revitalized after their brow lift.
Typically, you’ll start seeing the results of your brow lift surgery right away after the procedure. However, you likely won’t be able to see the complete effects until the swelling and bruising have subsided completely. This process can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months.
The results of a brow lift should last for at least several years. If you consistently take good care of your skin, the improvements achieved by the surgery could potentially last a lifetime. Moisturizing your skin, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and regularly wearing sunscreen are all effective ways to preserve your brow lift results.

How long will my results from a brow lift last?
Will I have visible scars after my brow lift?
Will a brow lift change my natural expression?
Is a surgical or non-surgical brow lift best?
On average, the results of a brow lift last for between 10 and 12 years. Although the aging process will continue, the effects could potentially be permanent if you properly care for your skin.
During a brow lift, Dr. Lee makes a point to place the incisions in places where they’ll be as hidden as possible. Typically, any visible scarring after the procedure will fade over the next few years.
A brow lift should not alter your natural facial expressions when done correctly. The goal is to restore a youthful, refreshed look without making you look “surprised” or “frozen.
The best option for your brow lift depends entirely on your personal preferences. A non-surgical brow lift will be quicker, cheaper, and easier to recover from, but the results will be limited and much more short-lived. During your consultation, Dr. Lee will help you decide whether surgical or non-surgical treatment is the best fit for you.
