Brow and Forehead Procedures

The effects of aging are inevitable, and no location shows this aging more than the brow and forehead area. The skin begins to lose its elasticity from a variety of sources, like the sun, wind and gravity. These elements cause frown lines, wrinkling across the forehead, and an increasing heaviness of the eyebrows. Even people in their thirties may have faces that look older than their years. Your tired, angry, or sad expression may not reflect how you actually feel. When a surgeon tightens loose skin and removes the excess, forehead wrinkling and drooping brows are modified. The procedure is called a forehead lift or brow lift.

If necessary, the surgeon removes part of the muscle that causes vertical frown lines between the brows. The result can be a smoother brow and a more youthful expression. As with all elective surgery, good health and realistic expectations are prerequisites. To see what a forehead lift can do for your face, put your hands above your brows and outside the edges of your eyes and gently raise the skin upwards. Forehead lifts are an option if you have a sagging brow or deep furrows between the eyes. This procedure is usually done between age forty and sixty-five, although it may be necessary at an earlier age.

What to Expect from Your Brow Lift Surgery

The main difference among the various options for forehead lifting is in the placement of the incision. The original technique is the coronal incision, which is made slightly behind the natural hairline. An alternative is the pre-trichial incision. This is similar to the coronal incision except that the mid-portion of the incision is made directly at the hairline. This incision generally heals favorably and has the advantage of lowering the hairline. The disadvantage could be noticeable scarring. An option is to place the incision within the midforehead creases. This is primarily used in men with deep pre-existing forehead lines.

The newest approach is endoscopic surgery. Four to five small one-half-inch to one-inch incisions are placed just behind the hairline. Through these the forehead and brows are released and elevated with special instruments. This technique is less invasive and results in a smaller chance of temporary scalp numbness. Dr. Ferguson performs over 90% of his browlifts this way. This procedure takes less than one hour to perform. It is most commonly performed in our facility with local anesthetics. It is usually combined with other procedures.

Post Brow Lift Surgery

You will experience a certain amount of swelling and bruising in the 10-day period following surgery. In some patients, this condition may include the cheek and eye area as well as the forehead. You are advised to keep your head elevated in order to reduce swelling. Cold compresses may further reduce swelling.

As the incisions heal, you may experience some numbness as well as itching, both of which will diminish with time. The sutures are usually removed within ten to fourteen days following surgery. If bandages have been used, they may be removed the next day.
You can shower and wash your hair at that time. For most patients, the recovery time will not exceed two weeks, but patients may still be advised to avoid strenuous activities for longer periods. Any prolonged bruising can be camouflaged with standard make-up techniques.

Insurance does not generally cover surgery that is purely for cosmetic reasons, but if this surgery is being done to correct or improve sagging foreheads and brows which interfere with your vision, all or some of the procedure may be reimbursable.

Eyebrow Restoration 

Whether it’s from years of plucking and waxing or other age and health factors, thinning eyebrows can make you feel self-conscious every time you look in the mirror. While pencils, makeup or even tattoos can help you fill in your eyebrows, these short-term solutions are expensive, time-consuming, unnatural looking and can even cause permanent damage to your hair follicles.

At The Ferguson Clinic, we use your own hair to fill in and enhance your brow, the results are natural and permanent.

Here’s how it works: the hairs must be surgically removed with the NeoGraft as single hair follicles from the back of the scalp. They must then be inserted into a previously designed brow at an extreme angle and also in the proper direction to achieve a normal looking brow. Typically from 250 to 350 grafts are needed for each brow. Remember that these are hairs from your scalp, so they will continue to grow and must be trimmed when too long.

The procedure is done under local anesthesia and takes from 4-6 hours to perform. After the procedure there may be some minor scabbing for a few days. The hairs will fall out at about the third week from “hair shock,” which is typical. They then regrow at about the third or forth month and then you’ll have eyebrows forever. 

NeoGraft is the state-of-the-art in hair transplantation for both the scalp and eyebrows.

If you’re looking for a permanent hair solution for your brows, call us today for a free consultation 💜
