Brow Lift Beverly Hills, CA
A brow lift procedure, alternatively called a forehead lift, is an operation to improve the aesthetics and solve some signs of aging of the upper one-third of the face. The goal is to lift or reshape the sagging brows to a more desirable position and contour by removing excess skin. As with all plastic surgeries, it is important to pay attention to the individual’s age, ethnicity, gender, and unique facial expression features to deliver a natural-looking result that compliments the other facial features.

The Brow Lift Procedure
An endoscopic brow lift is usually performed with the fiberoptic endoscope through small incisions hidden within the hairline so there are no scars. This minimally invasive procedure is undertaken with the use of a fiberoptic endoscope so the underlying anatomy can be visualized by a board certified plastic surgeon while manipulating and lifting the tissues. Once Dr. Frankel has elevated the brows and is satisfied with the changes, the tissues are secured to maintain their new positions.
Combining Brow Lift with others Surgeries
A forehead and brow lift surgery can be done alone if you’re only interested on solving forehead creases and frown lines, or with other facial procedures, such as blepharoplasty (upper eyelid surgery) or a facelift. Often times Dr. Frankel finds that performing these surgical procedures together allows for the optimal balance and aesthetics.
DR. FRANKEL’S NOTES
“I prefer to think of this operation more as a brow reshaping rather than brow lifting. Using the fiberoptic endoscope allows me to alter a few specific muscles and attachments in order to render a subtle softening of appearance.
I customize the technique I employ for each individual and try to render the outcome that the patient desires and that we agreed upon preoperatively. After a successful brow lift, the patient should look more serene rejuvenated.”
– Andrew Frankel, M.D.
