The forehead, or brow, is involved in most expressions of your face - happy, as well as sad, feelings are demonstrated through the forehead area. Over time, muscles used in these expressive gestures begin to take on the expression permanently, causing wrinkles in the brow.

The major benefit of a good brow lift is that the underlying muscles can be addressed to produce a more natural, longer-lasting result and in many cases can prevent some frown and worry lines from returning.

The brow lift also includes an eyebrow lift. Lifting sagging, drooping eyebrows at the same time as the brow lift results in a brighter, more refreshed look to the eyes.

There are several methods of performing the brow lift. Dr. Hugo uses "mini incisions" behind the hairline, resulting in no visible scars or hair loss. A brow lift is often done at the same time as a cheek lift. Patients are able to return to work with an overall rejuvenated appearance to the face after just a week or 10 days.
