Brow Lift in Chicago

During your initial consultation, your surgeon will thoroughly examine your facial structure, review your medical history, and discuss what you want to achieve by undergoing a brow lift. Understanding your aesthetic aspirations is our top priority. From there, we will develop a tailored strategy to achieve the beautiful results you're looking for.

Our treatment plan will be tailored to you, but we usually advise patients to stop smoking, avoid anti-inflammatory medications, and arrange transportation to and from our clinic.

On the day of your procedure, you’ll arrive at our Chicago clinic, where our team will welcome you and prepare you for the brow lift. The surgery usually lasts between one and two hours and is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation, though general anesthesia may be used if necessary.

Your surgeon will select the best brow lift technique for your specific needs. We utilize modern, minimally invasive methods that involve small incisions hidden within your hairline. Enhanced by using lighted scopes, this approach minimizes swelling and bruising, allowing for quicker recovery.

Day of Surgery: After the procedure, we will monitor you closely for any complications. Once you're feeling comfortable, you can go home to continue your recovery.

First Few Days: You can expect to see initial results once your bandages are removed, usually within a couple of days. Keep your head elevated while sleeping to help reduce swelling during this time.

First Week: Plan to take about a week off from work to allow your body to heal properly. Avoid vigorous activities during this period.

First Month: Refrain from strenuous exercise for about a month to ensure a smooth recovery and prevent any strain on the healing tissues.

Three to Six Months: The full benefits of your brow lift will become evident as your brows fully heal. This is when you can truly appreciate the transformation.

Long-term: Any scars from the incisions will gradually fade, becoming barely noticeable, showcasing your surgeon's precise and careful work.

Proper aftercare is crucial for achieving the best results from your brow lift. Keep your head elevated for the first few days to reduce swelling. Avoid direct sunlight and use sunscreen to protect the healing skin. Gently apply cold compresses if needed to manage discomfort and swelling. Follow your surgeon's instructions on when to resume activities and how to care for any stitches. Lastly, maintain a healthy lifestyle and stay hydrated to support your body's natural healing process.
