How Long Will My Brow Lift Results Last?

The eyebrows play a significant role in creating facial expressions and serve the practical function of keeping sweat and debris from the eyes. They can also be one of the first places impacted by the inevitable signs of aging. Facial rejuvenation procedures like a brow lift can help restore a more youthful appearance to the brows, helping you look more refreshed.

A brow lift is a significant investment in your more youthful appearance and overall well-being, but how long will your brow lift results last? Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gabrielle B. Davis can help you determine whether a brow lift is the appropriate solution to help you achieve your aesthetic goals and estimate how long you can expect your brow lift results to last.

What Is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift is a cosmetic surgery procedure designed to rejuvenate the upper third portion of the face. Aging, genetics, skin type, gravity, and lifestyle factors like diet and exercise can impact the appearance of the eyebrows, causing them to fall. Repetitive contractions of the facial muscles can cause wrinkles and fine lines. A brow lift aims to elevate the brows and address the muscles that lead to those fine lines and wrinkles.

Los Angeles brow lifts can:

Restore eyebrows that have lost their arch
Reduce wrinkles across the forehead, bridge of the nose, and between the eyes
Improve the frown lines between the eyebrows
Raise sagging brows that hood upper eyelids
Place the eyebrows in a more alert, youthful position

To achieve full facial rejuvenation, Dr. Davis may recommend other complementary procedures in conjunction with your brow lift, including:

How Long Is Brow Lift Recovery?

While you may see brow lift results immediately, you may also experience discomfort and mild swelling and bruising that obscure your final results. Your results will continue to improve over the next several months as the site heals and incisions fade, revealing a smoother forehead appearance.

During your Beverly Hills brow lift recovery, most patients will experience 1 to 2 weeks of social downtime. Many feel “presentable” to the public after 10 to 14 days.

How Long Will My Brow Lift Results Last?

Many factors can impact the longevity of your brow lift results. A critical element is your overall health. You can expect your brow lift results to last longer if you take good care of your skin and body.

After your brow lift recovery, your eyebrows will be in a more youthful position, improving your overall facial appearance. However, a brow lift will not stop the aging process. Typically, brow lift results will continue to improve your appearance for 5 to 12 years, depending on the procedure type and individual factors like lifestyle, genetics, and age.

Tips to Help You Maintain Your Brow Lift Results

A brow lift is an investment in your appearance and overall well-being. Achieving your desired results is important, and here are a few lifestyle factors that might ensure your results last.

Avoid sun damage. Every day our skin can be exposed to harmful UV rays, causing damage like fine lines, wrinkles, and collagen and elastin loss. Minimize sun exposure and apply sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher daily to ensure your skin remains healthy.
Avoid smoking. Smoking negatively impacts your skin, including accelerating the aging process.
Nutrition and exercise. A healthy lifestyle, including balanced nutrition and regular exercise, are essential elements to nourishing your skin’s youthful, healthy appearance.
Moisturize and hydrate. Keeping your skin moisturized can address issues with dryness, skin texture, and tone. Staying hydrated is important for your overall health and keeps your skin hydrated from the inside out. Avoid excessive alcohol or caffeine consumption as they can contribute to dehydration.
Get rest and minimize stress. A good night’s sleep and eliminating stressors can go far in improving the skin’s overall health and appearance and boosting how you feel inside.

Am I a Good Candidate for Brow Lift Surgery?

In general, candidates are those concerned with lines or other signs of aging on the forehead or looking to correct hooded eyes to refresh their more youthful appearance.

Dr. Davis recommends Beverly Hills brow lift candidates should:

Be in good overall health and live a healthy lifestyle
Be a non-smoker or willing to quit all nicotine at least 4 weeks before and after surgery
Not be pregnant or breastfeeding
Have no medical conditions that may impair healing
Have no serious eye conditions
Have a positive outlook and realistic goals for the procedure
Understand the surgical risks and benefits
