What is a brow lift? A Brow Lift, or Forehead lift, is a routine procedure that is available near you and used to reduce the following symptoms:
-
Forehead creases
-
Drooping eyebrows
-
Hooding over the eyes
-
Frown lines
The procedure works by removing excess tissue, then elevating the muscles and tightening the forehead skin, giving you that youthful appearance. A brow lift in NJ will allow you to reduce signs of aging on your forehead, upper eyelids and eyebrows, and may also result in you looking more alert and happy. A brow lift may be performed using an incision across the top of the forehead just behind the hairline; or with the use of an endoscope, through 3 to 5 short incisions within the hairline.
This is a common procedure performed by Dr. Capuano near you in Bergen County, New Jersey.

Is Brow Lift Surgery Right For Me?
The best NJ candidates for brow lift surgery are otherwise healthy adults, who are nonsmokers and who feel that their sagging or low eyebrow position creates a sad or tired look to their eyes that does not reflect the way they feel inside. A brow lift procedure is also ideal if you have deep horizontal lines across your forehead or on the bridge of your nose. Often brow lift patients who request an upper eyelid surgery because of hooding of skin over the upper eyelids really need a brow lift instead.
Brow lift expert, Dr. Capuano can help determine if a brow lift is right for you, after careful examination of your facial anatomy and skin quality, and consideration of your individual brow lift goals. Brow lift surgery is optimized by also improving the health and texture of your skin through combined treatment with non-surgical facial rejuvenation therapies including skin care systems, injectable fillers, toxin therapy, and laser resurfacing.
