A brow lift can dramatically improve the appearance of the eyebrows and upper eyelids providing a more refreshed youthful and relaxed look. The brow lift raises the eyebrows to their ideal position arching youthfully above the bone and also improved the extra skin that hangs down in the crows feet.
The brows and forehead which contribute significantly to an individual’s expressions are often the first areas of the face to show signs of ageing. This leads to a descent of the eyebrows.
As the eyebrows drop the forehead compensates by raising the eyebrows. This generates horizontal wrinkles across the forehead. With the eyebrows in the ideal position the forehead doesn’t have to work as hard and therefore these wrinkles improve.
Vertical wrinkles appear between the eyebrows as frown lines and can make people appear angry or upset when they are not. These muscles can be weakened at the same time as surgery to improve the frown.
Mr Athanassopoulos understands that a brow must not be over elevated and the tail should always sit above the centre. Too much elevation can create a surprised unnatural look.
Brow lifts are an area of interest of Mr Athanassopoulos for the last decade and he has experience of all major brow lifting methods.
These include endoscopic brow lift, temporal brow lifts, subcutaneous brow lift and direct brow lift.
There really is no age requirement. A brow lift is can be performed on someone as young as their late 20s and at any age after that. For younger patients, there are non surgical techniques such as Anti-wrinkle injections that are less invasive.
First, Mr Athanassopoulos will examine you and discuss your medical history. He will then go over brow lift types and the options that can best help you attain your goals.
Anti-wrinkle Injections placed on the upper eyelid and at the tail of the brow causes a pleasing eyebrow lift. When inexperienced practitioners use Anti-wrinkle Injections the eyebrow can come down further and cause even more heaviness.
