Brow & Forehead Lift

Dr. Bowles performs Brow and Forehead Lifts to raise eyebrows and reduce ridges and furrows on the forehead, thus creating a smoother, more youthful appearance. This procedure can be performed in conjunction with other surgeries.

An incision is generally made across the top of the head from the front of one ear to the front of the other ear. The forehead and brows are elevated and excess skin is removed. The flap is then sutured. Newer techniques now allow us to perform Forehead Lifting through small incisions in the scalp by using an Endoscope and specialized instruments. This accelerates the healing process.

Post-Operative Information

Antibiotics may be prescribed for several days following surgery. Sutures are generally removed within one week. Swelling and some bruising may occur, they should subside within a few weeks. Our doctors will prescribe ice compresses and eye exercises to reduce swelling and regain mobility. Women will be allowed to use eye cosmetics up to two weeks after surgery. You can proceed with your normal daily activities within 1-2 weeks. A final evaluation may occur within several months from the initial surgical procedure.

Insurance

Your insurance company may pay for part or all of the cost of surgery if the procedure is performed as a result of visual impairment. Because every insurance carrier is different, it is recommended that you check with your own insurance company to determine the level of coverage.

I have SEVERE anxiety with dentists, that includes oral surgeons, sorry Dr. Bowles no offense. My first appointment I tore up a stress ball, but they explained everything they were going to do, gave me positive affirmations and pats on my shoulder to let me know it would be okay. Before I left, I was in tears, not because of fear or anxiety, but because I was overwhelmed with the care and love they showed me. I had my procedure about a week ago and I honestly couldn't be more happy, still in pain some, but honestly I couldn't have asked for better. I kinda wish he was a normal dentist so I could just have all my dental needs done here. Thank you guys so much 🙂

Although the wait was long (they worked me in and did the very best they could) this was probably the very best experience I have had at any dentist office. I didn’t know we had an oral surgeon in town. If anyone looks for a recommendation I will most definitely refer them to this office. Super sweet staff, informative, doctor has a great bedside manner. Thanks so much you guys!!!!
