While nothing halts the aging process entirely, a brow lift can effectively create a smoother and more youthful forehead appearance for several years. For some patients, the results of a brow lift can endure a lifetime, while others may choose to complement their outcomes with treatments like BOTOX® Cosmetic to prolong the effects. The duration of your brow lift’s results is influenced by individual factors such as lifestyle choices and genetics.

What Is A Brow Lift?
A brow lift, also referred to as a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure designed to address signs of aging in the upper portion of the face.
By lifting the skin and muscles, it aims to diminish deep creases that develop across the brow and nose, as well as eliminate frown lines between the eyebrows. Additionally, a brow lift raises the eyebrows, resulting in a more open and youthful appearance around the eyes. Brow lift surgery can effectively address these concerns, often through minimally invasive techniques.

Brow Lift Procedure
As each individual’s facial structure varies, our board-certified plastic surgeon at Copper Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery tailors each brow lift in Traverse City to meet the patient’s specific needs. We offer both traditional and endoscopic methods, each involving discreet incisions made within the hairline.
Through these incisions, your surgeon will tighten the skin of the brow and remove any excess tissue contributing to drooping. This ensures optimal healing and sets the brow line for a rejuvenated appearance.
Given that brow lift procedures are frequently combined with other facial surgeries like eyelid lifts or facelifts, you and your surgeon will collaborate to determine the most appropriate procedures to achieve your desired outcome.

Frequently Asked Questions
Brow lift scars are typically concealed entirely within the natural hairline, gradually fading within 3-6 months following surgery. In some cases, temporary hair loss (known as shock hair) may occur around the incision site, but this typically resolves within a year as hair regrows.
During your consultation, your doctor will assess which technique will yield the best results for you, ensuring optimal outcomes with minimal scarring from your brow lift in Traverse City.
A surgical brow lift offers the most significant and long-lasting elevation of the brow. However, for those who prefer non-surgical options, BOTOX® Cosmetic can be an alternative.
While BOTOX® Cosmetic cannot achieve the same level of brow elevation or address upper eyelid hooding as extensively as surgery, it can provide a subtle lifting effect and temporarily reduce furrows and lines between the brows and on the forehead. This non-surgical approach, often referred to as a “brow lift with BOTOX® Cosmetic,” may be suitable for certain patients.
It’s essential to note that the results of this nonsurgical procedure typically last around three to four months, requiring periodic touch-up treatments to maintain the effects.
No. Our surgeon is extremely careful not to induce too much lift, which can give an artificial, or “plastic” appearance.
