Question:
I’m in my mid-60s and would like an eyebrow lift. However, I have a severe heart condition and am not sure if this is safe. Would I still be a good candidate?

Answer:
Although many cosmetic surgical procedures such as eyebrow lift can be performed with mild sedation and local anesthesia, I would strongly suggest deterring any elective surgery until your cardiologist feels that the risks are minimal, at most. Once they have given you the green light, then I am certain that your surgeon will take every precaution to insure that your brow lift procedure is safe and successful.
