A brow lift can recreate a more youthful, refreshed appearance in the area above the eyes. This cosmetic procedure lifts brows that sag downward and corrects lines and wrinkles that can make a person look angry, sad or tired.
With age or heredity, eyebrows lose their support and are pulled down by gravity. Frown lines deepen, which can lead to the appearance of negative expressions. If people are always asking you if you are getting enough sleep or if something is bothering you when you’re feeling just fine, it could be because your brows and forehead have aligned into a sad or tired appearance.
Brow lifts are commonly requested by men and women between the ages of 40 to 60 to minimize visible effects of aging. However, they can help people of any age who have developed deep frown lines due to stress or muscle activity. Those with inherited conditions, such as a lower, heavy brow or furrowed lines above the nose can achieve a more alert and refreshed look with this procedure.
Alternately, Botox injections are commonly used to chemically relax muscles, lifting the brow and decreasing the appearance of forehead wrinkles and frown lines. This is a nonsurgical approach that can be tried out prior to committing to surgery. It may also be performed afterward as a way to maintain your results.
A personal consultation with Dr. Priya Kesarwani will help you to decide if your forehead and brows are contributing to a look that could be improved with this procedure. She will explain in detail how a brow lift can enhance your expression and overall appearance.
During your consultation, Dr. Kesarwani will review your medical history. She'll also show you before and after brow lift photos from patients she has performed the procedure on previously.
A brow lift is a great procedure to complete the rested and youthful appearance that you may want.
Brow lift prices in Toronto, Canada typically range from $8000 and up, depending on factors such as th surgeon's expertise, geographic location, facility fees, surgical technique and amount of correction desired.
An endoscopic brow lift elevates the eyebrows and reduce wrinkles on the forehead. This technique uses an endoscope, a thin tube with a camera attached, inserted through small incisions in the scalp. These incisions (typically 3-5, each under an inch long) remain hidden within the hairline for less visible scarring.
The tube (endoscope) serves several important functions:
Visualization: The endoscope contains a small camera that transmits real-time images to a monitor in the operating room. This allows the surgeon to see the internal structures of the forehead and brow area without making large incisions.
Illumination: The endoscope also provides light, illuminating the surgical area from within, which is crucial for the surgeon to see clearly in the confined space.
Access for instruments: While the endoscope itself doesn't perform the lifting, it creates a pathway for the surgeon to insert specialized surgical instruments through the same small incisions.
Guidance: The visual feedback from the endoscope guides the surgeon's actions, allowing for precise manipulation of tissues, muscles, and skin.
Tissue manipulation: Through the tube, the surgeon can release attachments, reposition tissues, and make necessary adjustments to achieve the desired lift.
Safety: The clear view provided by the endoscope helps the surgeon avoid sensitive structures like nerves and blood vessels, potentially reducing risks compared to "blind" techniques.
In essence, the endoscope acts as the surgeon's eyes and creates a pathway for instruments, making the procedure less invasive than a traditional brow lift. It is popular for its effectiveness and relatively quick recovery time. However, the endscopic brow lift isn't suitable for all patients. Dr. Kesarwani will examine you to ensure the safest and most effective technique.
In completing a browlift Toronto, patients will want to know the steps that take place on the day of their procedure. This begins with their arrival at our surgical facility located at Yonge and York Mills. They will be checked in and have their paperwork completed.
You will then speak with Dr. Kesarwani about the forthcoming procedure and any concerns they have on the day. Once all questions have been answered, they will finalize the preoperative process and begin the procedure. The brow lift is usually completed under general anesthesia.
In the hours after the procedure has been completed, the patient is then able to go home to continue their recovery and to begin their post-surgery life. In the days after the procedure, the patient may experience some bruising and skin sensitivity. This sensitivity will eventually decrease over the coming days. Within the week, most patients are able to begin normal activities and show their spectacular new look to those around them.

A brow lift procedure is designed to counteract the drooping effect of the brow area that can take place on a person’s face over time. The procedure gives a more youthful appearance and helps minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Soon after the procedure patients want to begin impressing others with their new look, and so a common question we hear is: "How soon can I wear makeup after a brow lif?"
In examining the potential for wearing makeup after a brow lift, it’s important to consider the length of the recovery phase for the procedure. Most patients will be back to work and completing normal activities within one to two weeks of their procedure. The skin on the face tends to heal quite quickly, but still we recommend that brow lift patients wait at least a week before they begin using makeup on the surgical area. That’s not long at all!
