Brow Lift Cosmetic Surgery

Brow lift (also known as forehead lift ) is a cosmetic procedure which is performed to restore a more youthful appearance above and around the eyes. Patients who consider a brow lift are mostly over the age of 40 and have developed forehead wrinkles through the natural ageing process. However a forehead lift can be considered by a person of any age who has developed wrinkles on the forehead through stress or over activity of underlying muscle and wishes to have a more vibrant youthful look.What does the brow lift procedure involve?In the past, brow lift plastic was most commonly performed by making incisions on the forehead which would allow the cosmetic surgeon to remove excess fat, skin and muscle from the forehead. However due to advances in endoscopic techniques, most cosmetic surgeons have now abandoned the older surgical techniques in favour of endoscopic brow lift surgery. Cosmetic surgeons can now perform the entire brow lift cosmetic procedure by making a few tiny incisions (a few half inch incisions hidden behind the hairline) through which an endoscope is then passed to elevate the brows and smooth forehead wrinkles. Endoscopic forehead lift cosmetic has proved to be particularly popular because it results in minimal visible scarring, has low complication rates and does not require any hair shaving. Although brow lift is often performed on its own, it is also commonly performed alongside other facial cosmetic procedures such as eyelid or face lift plastic surgery. Therefore the exact surgical procedure which is used to perform your brow lift will depend on your requirements which you can discuss in depth with your cosmetic surgeon.The Hurlingham Clinic situated in London is one of UK’s leading clinics.
