A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift or browplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to reposition and rejuvenate the eyebrows and forehead area. It is performed to address sagging brows, forehead wrinkles, and horizontal lines on the forehead. Two common techniques for brow lifts are the sub-brow lift and the supra-brow lift.

What is Brow Lift?

• Sub-Brow Lift:
  This technique, also known as a sub-browplasty or sub-periosteal brow lift, involves making incisions just below the eyebrows. The surgeon lifts and repositions the underlying tissues and muscles, resulting in a subtle elevation of the eyebrows and a more youthful appearance.
  
• Supra-Brow Lift:
  In this approach, also known as a direct brow lift or supra-periosteal brow lift, incisions are made directly above the eyebrows. The surgeon lifts the forehead tissues and brows upward, achieving a brow elevation and smoothing of forehead wrinkles.

Benefits of Brow Lift

1. Rejuvenated Appearance:

• A brow lift can restore a more youthful and refreshed look by elevating sagging brows and smoothing forehead wrinkles.

2. Improved Facial Harmony:

• It can enhance facial symmetry and balance, creating a more harmonious appearance.

3.Long-Lasting Results:

• Brow lift results are typically long-lasting, providing sustained improvement for many years.

4. Customizable:

• The procedure can be tailored to meet the individual patient’s aesthetic goals and address specific concerns.

Treatment Process

ZenKai offers Brow Lift options tailored to your needs, whether sub-brow or supra-brow. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities. Here’s an insight into what each treatment involves:

1. Consultation:

• The process begins with a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. The patient discusses their goals, and the surgeon evaluates their facial structure and skin condition.

2. Anesthesia:

• The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on patient and surgeon preferences.

3. Incision Placement:

• For the sub-brow lift, small incisions are made just below the eyebrows. In the supra-brow lift, incisions are made directly above the eyebrows.

4. Tissue Adjustment:

• In the sub-brow lift, the surgeon uses the incisions to access and adjust the underlying tissues and muscles. In the supra-brow lift, the surgeon lifts and repositions the forehead tissues.

5. Brow Repositioning:

• The brows are repositioned to a more aesthetically pleasing level.

6. Excess Skin Removal (if necessary):

• Excess skin may be removed before closing the incisions.

7. Sutures and Dressings:

• The incisions are closed with sutures, and dressings or bandages are applied to protect the surgical area.

8. Recovery and Follow-up:

• Patients are provided with post-operative instructions, and follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor healing and address any concerns.

Results and Duration

The transformative power of our Brow Lift procedures at ZenKai is matched only by our commitment to maintaining your natural beauty. Discover what you can anticipate in terms of results and duration for the specific technique you choose.

1. Results:

• Sub-Brow Lift:
  Results become apparent as swelling and bruising subside, typically within a few weeks. The final outcome is a more youthful and refreshed appearance with elevated brows and reduced forehead wrinkles.
  
• Supra-Brow Lift:
  Similar to the sub-brow lift, results are visible as swelling and bruising resolve, resulting in a more youthful forehead and brow position.

2. Duration of Results:

• Both sub-brow and supra-brow lifts offer long-lasting results that can persist for many years. However, the aging process continues, and some gradual changes may occur over time. Maintenance procedures or non-surgical treatments may be considered to extend the results as needed.
