Benefits of a Brow Lift in Los Angeles
More Youthful Brows
Aging can make our brows seem lower and heavier. A brow lift does just that—it lifts the brows for a more youthful expression.
Minimize Lines & Wrinkles
Time, environment, and that gorgeous Cali sun can really age your brow and forehead. A brow lift lessens even the most severe wrinkles.
Lift Upper Eyelids
A brow lift can reduce the heaviness of your upper eyelids and give them a gentle lift, too.
Consultation
It starts with a personal consultation with your trained and licensed Younique provider. During this relaxing and energizing one-on-one, they’ll discuss your concerns, your goals for treatment, and your medical history. If your provider determines you are a candidate for a brow lift and you would like to proceed with the procedure, we will schedule your surgery and begin preparations.
Procedure
The Younique brow lift is an outpatient procedure done under IV sedation or general anesthesia. We prefer the endoscopic brow lift over a traditional lift—which uses a long incision along the forehead, leaving a visible scar. Using this more advanced technique, small incisions will be made at the hairline, releasing the tightened muscles that cause wrinkles and frown lines. Then, the skin is pulled up to the desired position and sutured in place.
Recovery
There will be mild to moderate discomfort for the first few days after surgery. Keep your head elevated and apply ice packs to help with swelling. Avoid any strenuous activity for 2 weeks. Patients usually can return to work after 10 to 14 days. It will take several weeks to eventually see the full, delightful results of your brow lift.
How do I help maintain my brow lift results?
Two words will help keep your results supple and lasting: sunscreen and skincare. Always wear sunscreen outside, and make sure you use medical-grade skincare creams and products—especially the kind that stimulate collagen production. Ask your Younique provider about our skincare products. They’re all medical grade (meaning they have a higher concentration of active ingredients than products from a pharmacy or beauty supply store) and made to fully support your rejuvenation and maintenance efforts.
What exactly does a brow lift do for my appearance?
Have you ever noticed that as people age, their brows sink lower? This pushes their upper eyelids down for a “scowl” look that may not be at all how they are on the inside. Especially if you are more expressive, the loss of collagen (one of the building blocks of firm, youthful skin) caused by aging leads your forehead skin to stretch but not “snap back.” This means your eyebrows droop even more, which can increase the likelihood of creating more wrinkles because you have to use more dramatic muscle movements for your expressions.
A brow lift removes some of that excess skin, and it lifts and pulls your skin into a higher position. This gives you younger-looking eyebrows, fewer forehead wrinkles, and can provide a mild lift to your upper eyelids.
