Brow Lift
With age, gravity and muscle action work to depress the eyebrows. Lowering of the brows causes hooding of the upper eyelids, and the muscle action of depressors of the brow lead to a chronic frown, scowling, or unhappy look. A brow lift in Tampa, Florida serves to relieve these aging features of the upper face. Raising the eyebrows produces a more rested, pleasant look to the upper eyelids, and relaxing the frown and forehead muscles reduces frown lines and forehead lines. The result is a more youthful, relaxed look to the upper face.

Brow Lift Procedure
Although endoscopic approaches are commonplace, Dr. Jasin prefers the more traditional open approach performed through the scalp incision. This approach best matches Dr. Jasin's preference for simple techniques which lead to a simple recovery and maximal results for you.
To begin the procedure, an incision is made in the scalp over the forehead, and the skin is lifted. The frown muscles are partially removed which eliminates the downward pull on the brows. Fibrous attachments of the brow are released so the brows can be lifted and repositioned. Finally, the excess skin is removed and the incision is closed.
A forehead lift can be combined with other procedures such as:
All patients receive treatment in our Tampa state of the art fully accredited facility.
Recovery
Recovery from a brow lift will depend on if you combine the procedure with other facial rejuvenation procedures like eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) in Tampa. Typically, our brow lift patients from St. Petersburg and Tampa can return to their normal, everyday activities within 2 to 7 days after surgery. Patients may experience slight bruising and swelling; however, this will subside over the following weeks.
