An eyebrow lift is a surgical operation to raise the brows, and is also known as an eyebrow lift or forehead rejuvenation. By lifting the soft tissue and skin of the forehead and brow, a brow lift enhances the look of the forehead, the brow, and the region around the eyes.
It is for the short, sagging, or asymmetric brow.
Aging normally stimulates the brows to sag. The distance between the eyebrows and eyelashes often shortens as the skin and soft tissues lose elasticity, giving a weary, frustrated, or depressed look because of the lower positioning of eyebrows. A lifted eyebrow could result in a more refreshed, appealing look.
