Brow Lift: Elevate Your Expression, Erase Years from Your Gaze

Reverse the signs of aging in the upper face. Dr. Goldberg's tailored brow lift procedures raise drooping brows, smooth forehead lines, and restore a more alert, youthful, and harmonious appearance.

What is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift, or forehead lift, is a sophisticated facial rejuvenation procedure designed to correct a sagging brow line and smooth deep wrinkles across the forehead and between the eyebrows. Over time, gravity and muscle activity can cause the brows to descend, creating a tired, sad, or even angry appearance—regardless of how you actually feel. Dr. Goldberg’s brow lift techniques precisely elevate the brow and forehead tissues to open up the eyes, soften expression lines, and restore a more youthful, alert, and approachable look.

Are You a Candidate for a Brow Lift?

You may be an ideal candidate for a brow lift if you are bothered by one or more of the following concerns:

  • Sagging or Low Brow Position: Brow tails that have dropped below the bony rim of the eye, creating a "heavy" look.

  • Hooded Upper Eyelids: Excess skin that is actually stemming from a low brow, not the eyelid itself.

  • Deep Horizontal Forehead Lines: Wrinkles across the forehead that are present even at rest.

  • Vertical Frown Lines: Deep, vertical creases between the eyebrows (glabellar lines), often called "11s."

  • Personal Readiness:

    • You are in good health and a non-smoker.

    • You have realistic expectations about restoring a more youthful position, not creating an unnatural "surprised" look.

    • You understand the difference between a brow lift and an eyelid surgery.

Your Personalized Brow Lift Consultation with Dr. Goldberg

A successful brow lift requires a customized approach based on your unique facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. During your consultation, Dr. Goldberg will:

  1. Analyze Your Facial Expressions: He will assess your brow position at rest and during animation to understand the dynamics of your aging.

  2. Determine the Root Cause: He will differentiate between concerns caused by brow ptosis (sagging) versus true eyelid skin excess.

  3. Recommend the Best Technique: Dr. Goldberg will explain the different brow lift approaches (Endoscopic, Temporal, or Coronal) and recommend the one best suited to your needs.

  4. Develop a Surgical Plan: He will walk you through the details of the procedure, including incision placement, anesthesia, and what to expect.

  5. Discuss Complementary Procedures: He will advise if combining your brow lift with an upper blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) would provide the most harmonious result.

Dr. Goldberg's Brow Lift Techniques: Customized Rejuvenation

Dr. Goldberg performs brow lift surgery in an accredited surgical facility under anesthesia for your comfort. He specializes in modern, minimally invasive techniques:

  • Endoscopic Brow Lift: This is the most common and advanced technique. Several small incisions are hidden within the hairline. A tiny camera (endoscope) and specialized instruments are used to lift and secure the underlying forehead tissues. This approach offers a quicker recovery and minimal scarring.

  • Temporal Brow Lift (Limited Incision): This technique focuses on lifting the outer third of the brow through incisions within the temporal hairline. It is ideal for patients who primarily need elevation of the brow tails.

  • The Goldberg Philosophy: Dr. Goldberg’s goal is to create a natural, subtle elevation. He focuses on releasing and repositioning the structures that cause heaviness, resulting in a refreshed appearance that avoids the "windblown" or overly surprised look of the past.

What to Expect During Your Brow Lift Recovery

Recovery from a brow lift is generally well-tolerated, especially with endoscopic techniques.

  • First 48 Hours: You will have a bandage around your forehead. Swelling and some bruising around the eyes and forehead are normal. Keeping your head elevated is crucial.

  • First Week: Sutures or staples are removed. Most of the significant swelling and bruising will subside. You may feel comfortable being in public, though some residual swelling will remain.

  • Weeks 2-3: The majority of visible signs of surgery resolve. Numbness or itching around the incision sites is a normal part of the healing process.

  • Months 1-3: As the healing continues, the final, beautiful results become apparent. The brow position stabilizes, and the incisions continue to fade, becoming well-concealed within the hairline.

Why Choose Dr. Goldberg for Your Brow Lift?

The brow frame the eyes and are critical to facial expression. Their rejuvenation requires a deep understanding of facial aesthetics.

  • Expert in Facial Balance: Dr. Goldberg doesn't just lift the brow; he sculpts it to create a feminine, arched contour or a masculine, strong horizontal line based on your gender and desires.

  • Master of Minimally Invasive Techniques: His proficiency with the endoscope allows for targeted corrections with less downtime and hidden scars.

  • Focus on Natural Outcomes: He prioritizes a result that looks effortless and authentic, ensuring you look like a refreshed version of yourself.

  • Comprehensive Vision: Dr. Goldberg evaluates your entire upper face to determine if a brow lift alone is sufficient or if it should be part of a broader rejuvenation plan for the most stunning outcome.
