Brow Lift in Monterey

Most people will be good candidates for a brow lift. In Monterey at Gallery Plastic Surgery, we typically recommend the procedure for individuals experiencing forehead wrinkles, sagging brows, or a perpetually tired appearance.

As with any surgery, patients should be in good general health and have realistic expectations for their results. Our team at Gallery Plastic Surgery meets with each patient for a thorough consultation before any procedure to guarantee the best possible results for your brow lift experience.

The best part about plastic surgery is that the results are nearly permanent. After getting a brow lift, you can expect long-lasting results. Your refreshed appearance can remain for 10 to 15 years, so it’s like turning back the clock.

Your results can last even longer if you protect your skin from sun damage and follow a healthy skincare routine. We have many patients choose complementary treatments like Botox to maintain their youthful look after their brow lift in Monterey.

Most patients return to light activities within a few days and resume normal routines within 2 weeks. It’s normal to experience mild swelling and bruising, but those should subside quickly. Dr. Wong always provides detailed aftercare instructions to help you experience a smooth recovery and optimal healing.

A brow lift and an eyelid lift (also known as a blepharoplasty) are both procedures aimed at rejuvenating the eyes and upper face, but they target different areas.

Brow Lift: A brow lift focuses on lifting the forehead and eyebrows to correct sagging or drooping. It’s ideal for smoothing forehead wrinkles, lifting low eyebrows, and opening up the eye area by repositioning the brows higher on the forehead. This procedure can give the upper face a more youthful, refreshed look.

Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty): An eyelid lift addresses excess skin, fat, or muscle around the eyes, especially the upper and lower eyelids. It’s designed to reduce puffiness, remove sagging skin, and improve the appearance of tired or aged eyes. An eyelid lift can give the eyes a more alert, rested appearance by targeting the eyelid area specifically.

Both procedures can complement each other for a more complete eye rejuvenation, if you’re interested in an eyelid lift in addition or instead of your brow lift in Monterey, Dr. Wong can talk through what makes sense for you in your consultation!
