Brow Lift in Palm Springs & Rancho Mirage

Create a more youthful, refreshed look with a custom brow lift.

We all want to continue to look as youthful as possible. Unfortunately, no one is immune to the effects of aging, and the face is the primary area where the signs of aging are most visible. Forehead wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes and between the eyebrows can leave you looking tired, unhappy, and much older than you really are. A custom brow lift in Palm Springs can help alleviate the effects of aging and help give you a refreshed look.

Dr. Sofonio is an experienced cosmetic surgeon who can help you treat the visible signs of aging on your forehead, such as deep creases and a heavy, sagging brow. We offer numerous anti-aging procedures, including a custom brow lift surgery at our Rancho Mirage, CA office. Contact us today for more information or to schedule a consultation.

What is a Full Brow Lift?

As we age, our skin naturally loses elasticity and firmness, causing it to wrinkle, crease, and sag. This is especially noticeable on the forehead, as your skin loses its resilient quality and becomes deeply creased, with the brows drifting below the brow bone, creating an unhappy, older appearance. A full brow lift is a cosmetic procedure to raise the soft tissue and skin on the forehead and brows. The surgery can produce a dramatic difference in your appearance, creating a more youthful, refreshed appearance.

What is the Brow Lift Procedure?

The most popular brow lift technique is called a “bicoronal technique.” The procedure involves placing a single incision from ear to ear across the scalp, within the hairline where it will be hidden once healed. The excess, sagging skin is removed, and the incision is closed. An alternative procedure involves making a small incision, less than 1 inch in the hairline and elevating the forehead with special instruments through this small “closed” approach. These techniques subtly lifts the brows for a more open, refreshed, approachable facial appearance. These result are subtle but dramatic, leaving you looking years younger and more vital.

Your Recovery

Following your procedure, you will have aftercare instructions to follow closely. Even though the pain will be minimal, you will have prescription pain medication to keep you comfortable in the first stage of healing. You must avoid strenuous exercise or activities for two weeks or longer and must avoid lifting anything heavy for a few weeks. You should expect to be fully healed and able to return to work and other activities in about two to three weeks, based on your healing time. You will have several post-op appointments with Dr. Sofonio, who will monitor your progress throughout your recovery.

Facelift: A facelift can help address the visible signs of aging, including the loss of muscle tone, sagging skin, double chin, and deep under-eye creases.

Before surgery, you’ll receive detailed instructions, including which medications or supplements to avoid. You may be asked to stop smoking and arrange for someone to drive you home and assist you for the first 24 hours after surgery.
