Treatment details: Forehead Lift

A forehead lift is a type of plastic surgery that involves incising the forehead and lifting sagging skin and fascia to improve wrinkles, sagging and drooping brows. The incision can be made along the hairline or within the hair, and the technique is chosen for each patient. Raising the forehead skin can lift the brows and balance the distance between the brows and the eyes. It can also make the eyes easier to open.

Swelling and bruising usually subside within one to two weeks after surgery. The final result settles over one to six months, so at 3 months the result may still be changing. Scars become less noticeable over time.

Swelling, bruising, redness and discomfort can occur after a forehead lift. The degree and duration vary from person to person, but they usually subside within one to two weeks, and major swelling typically resolves in about a week. Some dull pain or discomfort may last for several days and gradually subsides. Activities that cause sweating, such as long hot baths and strenuous exercise, are avoided for about a week.

Because the incisions are made with a scalpel, numbness and a scar along the incision can occur. The incisions are placed along the hairline or within the hair, and the scars become less noticeable over time. The final result settles over one to six months.
