Forehead / Brow Lift
Why do
Patients Choose
Forehead / Brow Lift?
…..
A Forehead/Brow Lift is the go-to procedure for patients who want to elevate sagging brows, soften deep horizontal forehead lines, and reduce the heavy, tired look that can come with aging. It restores a more youthful, alert expression — without changing your natural features.
Common reasons patients choose this surgery include:
- Lifting drooping brows for a more open, refreshed look
- Smoothing deep forehead creases and worry lines
- Reducing frown lines between the eyebrows
- Correcting asymmetry in brow position
- Complementing other facial surgeries like eyelid lifts or facelifts
What to Expect (Procedure Overview)
Consultation & Planning
Every procedure starts with a one-on-one consultation. Dr. Schmelzer will examine your facial structure, discuss your goals, and determine whether a traditional or endoscopic (minimally invasive) approach is best for you.
Surgery Day
The procedure is performed in our AAAASF-accredited surgical suite. Depending on the technique used, small incisions are made either behind the hairline or within natural creases. Muscles are repositioned, skin is lifted, and excess tissue may be removed for optimal contouring.
Recovery
Most patients experience some swelling or bruising in the upper face for the first week. Discomfort is generally mild and managed with medication. You’ll be given specific aftercare instructions to promote healing and minimize visible scarring.

FAQs
Please click on any of questions below to view their answer!
Will it change how I look?
You’ll still look like yourself — just more rested and lifted. Most patients say they look like a brighter version of themselves.
Is this the same as a facelift?
No, a brow lift focuses on the upper third of the face. However, it’s commonly performed alongside a facelift for comprehensive results.
What’s the downtime like?
Plan for about 7–10 days of social downtime, depending on your body’s healing response and whether the procedure was endoscopic or traditional.
Will there be visible scarring?
Incisions are typically hidden along the hairline or natural forehead creases. Over time, they fade and become barely noticeable.
