Forehead sagging and wrinkling can make you look tired and worn out. Unfortunately, the forehead often displays some of the earliest signs of aging, thanks to years of facial expressions, sun exposure, and changes in the skin over time.
But there’s good news: A brow lift can rejuvenate the forehead area and restore a youthful look.

As a skilled plastic and reconstructive surgeon with in-depth training and extensive experience in facial procedures, he understands the importance of subtlety. Among Mt Vernon, WA patients, he’s known for brow lifts that enhance natural features without an exaggerated or “pulled” look. Keep reading to learn what a brow lift involves and what it can do for you.
What is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift elevates and tightens the skin above the eyebrows and throughout the forehead. It’s like a full-forehead refresh and is often called a forehead lift.
Problems a Brow Lift Can Solve
If forehead sagging is your biggest concern, a brow lift can be the perfect solution because it can return your skin to its original position. But a brow lift can also help with other concerns, such as:
- Horizontal Creases: Long lines that span the forehead
- Frown Lines: The two vertical lines between brows
- Eyebrow Flattening: Loss of the natural arch over time
- Uneven Brows: One brow higher or lower than the other
What to Expect: Brow Lift
Dr. Grant uses state-of-the-art Canfield medical imaging software to simulate results and help devise the ideal surgical approach. It gives you a preview of your refreshed forehead, so the consultation is when our patients often get excited about what’s to come.
Dr. Grant performs brow lifts on an outpatient basis, usually with intravenous (IV) anesthesia and sedation. Some patients may need general anesthesia.
In most cases, Dr. Grant uses the endoscopic approach for brow lifts, with tiny incisions hidden behind the hairline. With this approach, he uses a small camera to view the forehead from within, then uses specialized surgical tools to correct the signs of aging without major incisions.
For severe forehead sagging and wrinkling, Dr. Grant may use a traditional approach instead, with an ear-to-ear incision. While the incision is still concealed behind the hairline, it’s far larger.
Surgery usually takes less than two hours, and most patients can return to light activity in a few days. We provide detailed recovery guidelines to help you enjoy the best results.
