Combining brow and eyelid lifts, also known as forehead lift and blepharoplasty, respectively, offers a comprehensive solution for rejuvenating the upper face and achieving a more youthful, refreshed appearance. While each procedure targets specific areas of concern, their combined benefits can result in harmonious results that enhance overall facial aesthetics and restore a more youthful appearance. Maurice M. Khosh, MD, FACS, is a double-board certified facial plastic surgeon who can combine brow and eyelid lift surgery to achieve a refreshed upper face and the following benefits.
Comprehensive Rejuvenation
The combination of brow and eyelid lifts addresses multiple signs of aging in the upper face, including sagging brows, hooded eyelids, excess eyelid skin and under-eye bags. By targeting both the brow and eyelid region simultaneously, patients can achieve a more comprehensive and natural-appearing rejuvenation that enhances facial harmony and balance.
Improved Brow Position
As we age, the brows tend to descend lower on the forehead, resulting in a tired or aged appearance. A brow lift elevates the brows to a more youthful position, creating a refreshed and alert look. By combining a brow lift with an eyelid lift, the overall effect is enhanced, as the lifted brows complement the rejuvenated eyelids, resulting in a more harmonious and balanced appearance.
Reduction of Hooded Eyelids
Hooded eyelids, characterized by excess skin and fat that droops over the eyelid crease, can contribute to a tired or aged appearance. Blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids, resulting in a smoother, more youthful eyelid contour. When combined with a brow lift, the results are further enhanced, as the lifted brows create a more open and refreshed eye area.
Elimination of Under-Eye Bags
Under-eye bags and puffiness can make individuals appear tired or older than they are. Lower blepharoplasty targets excess fat and skin under the eyes, reducing the appearance of under-eye bags and creating a smoother, more refreshed appearance. When combined with a brow lift, the results are more comprehensive, as the lifted brows help to lift and tighten the skin around the eyes, further reducing the appearance of under-eye bags.
Enhanced Facial Harmony
By addressing both the brow and eyelid regions, combining brow and eyelid lifts can help restore facial balance and harmony. A brow lift elevates the brows to a more youthful position, while blepharoplasty rejuvenates the eyelids, resulting in a more rested, alert, and balanced appearance. This harmonious enhancement of the upper face can have a positive impact on overall facial aesthetics, enhancing natural beauty and boosting self-confidence.
Long-lasting Results
When performed by a skilled and experienced facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Maurice Khosh, the results of combining brow and eyelid lifts can be long-lasting. While the aging process will continue over time, patients can expect to enjoy the benefits of their rejuvenated appearance for many years to come. By maintaining a healthy lifestyle and skincare regimen, individuals can prolong the longevity of their results and continue to look and feel their best.
Combining brow and eyelid lifts offers a comprehensive solution for rejuvenating the upper face and achieving a more youthful, refreshed appearance.
