Can a brow lift alone have dramatic results on my appearance?

Question:
I notice my face looks tired all of the time. Can a brow lift alone have dramatic results on my appearance?

Answer:
Many patients come to me telling me that their face looks tired and ask me what they can do about it. In my experience, the status of their eyes will play a large role in how fatigued an individual will appear. Youthful eyes portray a rested and energetic look. The forehead and brow can contribute to this appearance of being tired, but how much this is contributing is variable. If their is a great deal of excess upper eyelid skin and your brows seem to have fallen, a forehead lift in combination with an upper eyelid lift will serve you better than a forehead lift alone. When performed correctly, these two procedures can really provide you with a dramatic improvement in the appearance of your face.
