Who is a Good Candidate for a Brow Lift (Browplasty)
A good candidate for a brow lift, or browplasty, typically includes individuals who meet the following criteria:
- Heavy or Descended Brows Heavy or descended brows can change the appearance of the upper face.
- Deep Forehead Creases Deep forehead creases or frown lines not fully improved with non‑surgical treatments.
- Lateral Hooding Over the Outer Eyelids Excess skin along the outer eyelids can affect the appearance of the upper eyelid area.
- Good Overall Health Candidates should be in good overall health, without any serious medical conditions that could impair healing or increase surgical risks. If you are a smoker (or vape) individuals must be willing to quit smoking well before and after the surgery. Smoking can impair blood flow and healing, increasing the risk of complications.
- Realistic Expectations Having realistic expectations about the outcomes of the surgery is crucial. While a brow lift can rejuvenate the face, it cannot stop the ageing process or change one’s fundamental appearance.
- Emotional Readiness Being emotionally prepared for surgery and understanding the recovery process and potential risks involved.
