Forehead Lift (Brow Lift)

A very popular cosmetic surgery operation is the forehead lifting or brow lifting. The forehead lift or the so-called brow lift restores the smoothness of the forehead skin. Repetitive contraction of the forehead muscles produces a furrowed brow and lines. These creases usually become obvious when the skin has aged and lost its elasticity. The brow lift reduces the creases in the area of the forehead, and improves the frown lines; but most importantly, the cosmetic surgery of the forehead tend to restore the shape and the natural position of your eyebrows as well as reducing the saggy and excess skin hanging around your eyes.


Who Undergoes a Forehead Lift?
Forehead lift in Manchester or in London is popular cosmetic surgery procedure with any person who is bothered with the signs of aging on their forehead.

The surgery
There are two types of forehead lift or brow lift procedures that the cosmetic plastic surgeon can use. These are the classic (so-called: coronal) and endoscopic brow lift. We recommend the classic or coronal forehead lift for clearly aged forehead and eyebrow furrows or wrinkles, as it provides more drastic restoration than the endoscopic brow lift, which is less invasive. The operation for a classic brow lift takes normally about 2 hours and will be performed at the Bridgewater hospital in Manchester or Highgate Hospital in London.
