Introduction to the Brow Lift Procedure
As we age, the effects of gravity and reduced skin elasticity can lead to drooping brows, deep forehead creases, and a tired or worried appearance. A brow lift offers a solution by repositioning the muscles and underlying tissues causing the brows to be in a more favorable position creating a smoother, more refreshed look.
Benefits
Benefits of Brow Lifts
- Lifts drooping eyebrows for a more refreshed appearance.
- Smooths deep forehead creases and frown lines.
- Improves symmetry between the brows and forehead.
- Enhances confidence with a more youthful look.
Candidates
Who Is a Good Brow Lift Candidate?
A brow lift may be a great option if you:
- Have a naturally heavy or furrowed brow.
- Are concerned about deep creases or sagging above your eyes.
- Are in good general health and a non-nicotine user.
- Have realistic expectations for your cosmetic goals.
A consultation with a board-certified surgeon at The Centre, P.C. will help determine if a brow lift is right for you.
Techniques
The Procedure Process
Brow lifts are outpatient procedures performed under general anesthesia. Depending on your needs, one of the following techniques may be used:
- Endoscopic Brow Lift: This minimally invasive technique involves small incisions just behind the hairline. A tiny camera and specialized instruments are used to lift and reposition the tissues, with minimal scarring and faster recovery.
- Traditional Brow Lift: This involves a longer incision along the hairline or within the scalp. Excess skin is removed, and the tissues are lifted to smooth and reshape the brow area.
During your consultation, your surgeon will recommend the best approach based on your facial anatomy and goals.
Brow Lift Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery after a brow lift varies by patient and the extent of the procedure. Key points include:
- Initial Recovery: Expect some tightness, swelling, and bruising for 7-14 days. Pain is generally mild and managed with prescribed medications.
- Sutures or Staples: These are typically removed about a week after surgery.
- Activity Restrictions: Avoid strenuous activity and direct sun exposure for 4 weeks. Intense exercise and activities that raise blood pressure should be postponed.
- Return to Normal Routine: Most patients return to work within 7-10 days.
- Sun Protection: Protect the incision areas from sun exposure for 12-18 months to minimize scarring.
Brow Lift Results
A brow lift offers long-lasting results, with:
- A smoother, more youthful forehead.
- Lifted brows that open up the eyes and improve facial harmony.
- Refreshed expressions, free from a worried or tired appearance.
Final results become apparent as swelling subsides, typically within a few months.
Risks and Considerations
While a brow lift is generally safe, it carries potential risks, including:
- Temporary numbness or itching around the incision site.
- Scarring or hairline changes.
- Rare complications, such as asymmetry or adverse reactions to anesthesia.
Discussing your medical history and concerns with your surgeon helps minimize these risks.

Dr. Downs is the best
I had a great experience here, the staff are so friendly and make you feel comfortable. Dr. Downs is the best, I will definitely be returning.
Very good bedside manner and great doctor
I was recently hospitalized last week for a finger infection. I ended up having surgery and Dr. Downs was my doctor. Very good bedside manner and great doctor. He takes his time to explain things to you. I really liked that. And went to his office for my follow up. All the staff were so sweet and professional.
She truly nailed it
Dr. Macias and her staff helped make this very personal decision easy and comfortable. They took the time to listen and answered all my questions. I was very nervous about having breast surgery but after it was done I was so happy with the results. She truly nailed it. I would highly recommend Dr. Macias to anyone considering any cosmetic surgery.

I enjoyed my whole experience
I received a rhinoplasty from Dr. Macias and my nose is PERFECT. 😍
I enjoyed my whole experience but here are a few specific highlights that stuck out:
- The staff is kind, informative, and responds quickly.
- I loved the simulation they used to show desired results.
- The staff the day of surgery was fun and helped me with my nerves.
- From the little shopping I did, their prices were the best (sometimes by far!).
I’m so happy Dr Downs is who I decided to go to for this surgery.
It has been officially 5 week since my tummy tuck and breast lift. After losing 150lbs I knew I needed this done but never thought it would be possible. After meeting with Dr. Downs and his team my dreams started to seem like reality. Five weeks ago we completed 1 of my 2 suggested surgery’s. My recovery so far has been extremely easy with little to no pain. Dr. Downs has been just the best. He took his time and explained every part of my surgery and what I could expect. It was a pleasant surprise to wake up from surgery and find out he didn’t have to make the vertical incision down my stomach due to all the my weight loss, and lose skin. I’m so happy Dr. Downs is who I decided to go to for this surgery. Can’t wait for him to complete my project.
