Dr. Bailey's personalized approach ensures your brow lift surgery is designed to enhance your unique facial features while supporting a rejuvenated appearance.

A brow lift is a surgical procedure that elevates drooping eyebrows, addresses deep creases and horizontal lines, and improves the appearance of the upper face. By lifting the brow tissues and adjusting the underlying soft tissue of the forehead, the procedure can reduce heaviness and help achieve more youthful contours.
Depending on your aesthetic goals, Dr. Bailey may recommend different incision types and techniques—including endoscopic brow lifts or temporal brow lifts—based on your brow anatomy, skin elasticity, and facial appearance. Each method is designed to support long-term results with a natural position and minimal disruption to your daily life.

Brow lift surgery can be performed using several refined techniques, each type of brow lift addressing concerns such as drooping eyebrows, forehead creases, or imbalances in facial expression. Dr. Virginia Bailey, evaluates every brow lift patient individually—considering facial features, soft tissue condition, and aesthetic preferences—to recommend the most suitable surgical procedure. Understanding the available brow lift options helps patients set realistic goals and choose a technique that supports a youthful appearance and natural position.
This minimally invasive procedure uses small incision types hidden within the hairline. Through the use of an endoscope, Dr. Bailey carefully repositions the brow tissues and connective tissue to restore a smoother contour and elevated position. Endoscopic brow lifts are often chosen for their reduced recovery time, minimal visible scarring, and ability to create a rejuvenated appearance with subtle, natural expression.
Temporal brow lifts focus on the outer portions of the brow, lifting the tail of the eyebrows for a soft, refreshed look. This technique is ideal for patients with early signs of brow descent who want a modest enhancement of their facial appearance. Incisions are placed discreetly within the hairline, minimizing visibility while enhancing youthful contours.
Also referred to as a traditional brow lift, this approach involves a longer incision placed behind the hairline, making it suitable for more advanced brow ptosis. This surgical procedure is typically recommended for individuals with significant sagging or deep creases in the upper portion of the forehead. Though it is a more invasive procedure, it provides long-lasting results when appropriate.
Every patient’s anatomy, recovery period, and aesthetic goals are unique. That’s why Dr. Bailey’s personalized approach considers your brow position, muscle activity, skin laxity, and facial structure to identify the right type of brow lift for your needs. Her aim is to restore a youthful position and refined balance to your facial expression—not to create an overdone result.
