Browpexy is a Brow Lift surgery which is performed to correct the sagging brows over the eyelids. The reasons for the sagging of brows include the gravity, ageing, congenital conditions, facial palsy, previous surgeries, malnutrition, distress and smoking. Brow lift surgery can be performed alone or in conjunction with eyelid surgery. The goal is to correct the sagging of brows and the old, tired and sleepy appearance of the face, thereby, to help the patient gain a refreshed look. During consultation with the plastic surgeon, the brow structure that will best fit the patient will be formed and surgery plans will be prepared for application. At this point, it is important to tailor a brow structure that won’t change the facial expression of the patient. For example, when the brow area close to the nose is too much lifted, the patient will gain a sad and startled look. On the contrary, when the brow area close to the ear is too much lifted, the patient will gain a frustrated and nervous look. So the patient needs to deeply analyse the shape of the brows in consultation with the surgeon at the pre-treatment stage.

HOW IS IT PERFORMED?

• Endoscopic brow lift: The surgeon uses the endoscope to make small incisions just behind the hairline and lifts the brows up to give it the shape desired. This is the most common brow lift surgery as it leaves no scar on the forehead.
• Incision brow lift: Incisions are made on the wrinkles just above the brows, close to the hairline. This method is mainly preferred in elderly patients with wrinkles on the forehead.

BROW LIFT RECOVERY

The result of the surgery is observed within 3 months on an average.

• There may be slight swelling on the forehead after the operation.
• You can wash your hair 3-4 days after the operation.
• The stitches will be removed on the 7th day.
