How much does a brow lift cost in Denver?

Dr. Thompson customizes each eyebrow lift to meet the patient’s unique needs and they may be simple or more complex. He may recommend a brow lift in combination with other procedures, which may reduce the individual cost of the eyebrow lift. For example, if you have a brow lift with a facelift, the anesthesia fee for the brow lift is less.

Will medical insurance cover the cost of a brow lift?

Some eyebrow lift costs may be covered by insurance if Dr. Thompson recommends the procedure to restore vision caused by drooping brows. While cosmetic procedures are not typically covered by insurance, we offer flexible payment options.

How is a brow lift done?

The procedure is customized, and some of the techniques may vary. Each technique has unique aspects that will be discussed at the time of consultation. All methods typically heal well, but Dr. Thompson may recommend one over another based on the patient’s characteristics and goals.

What risks are associated with a brow lift?

Complications after the procedure are rare. However, there are potential risks associated with every facial plastic surgery. Some risks may include visible scarring, reduced sensation, infection, and bleeding. Dr. Thompson explains the potential risks during the consultation, along with the anticipated results.

How long do my results last?

Eyebrow lift results are usually longer-lasting, but aging will naturally continue, and the brows can droop over time with excess skin laxity. Improvements may be experienced for greater than ten years if the patient commits to a healthy lifestyle, does not smoke, and maintains a healthy weight.

What treatments can be combined with a brow lift?

This procedure can be combined with many other facial procedures, including Botox, rhinoplasty (nose job), or eyelid surgery, to provide a customized look. The brow lift only addresses the upper forehead and is often combined with a facelift for total rejuvenation.

Will a brow lift reduce my crow’s feet or frown lines?

This will improve sagging and forehead wrinkles that cause drooping in the forehead. Botox or dermal fillers may be used with the procedure to reduce crow’s feet and wrinkles that are not caused by drooping brows.

Are there non-surgical alternatives to a brow lift?

If you wish to avoid surgery, Dr. Thompson may recommend other treatment options. Botox alone may be effective in some cases. Botox can relax the muscles that create deeper creases between the eyes. The relaxation of these muscles can encourage the brows to lift.

Your Initial Consultation for a Brow Lift in Denver

Your journey for a brow lift in Denver begins with an initial consultation with Dr. Thompson. You will get a chance to talk about your goals, current health status, and medical history. He’ll evaluate your forehead region, including the brow muscles, brow shape, upper eyelids, skin, and scalp laxity. There are different types of brow lifts, such as endoscopic and coronal brow lifts. Dr. Thompson creates a surgical plan that takes into account the natural shape of the patient’s eyebrows, the height of their forehead, and their aesthetic goals.

What to Expect From Your Procedure

Dr. Thompson typically completes the procedure using general anesthesia; however, if requested, he can perform some techniques under local sedation. Whenever possible, he uses minimally invasive techniques. Each operation addresses the patient’s unique goals, which can include emphasizing the eyes, tightening muscles through a forehead reduction surgery, removing excess skin, smoothing wrinkles, arching the brows, and raising the eyebrows. The procedure may take one to two hours, with patients returning home on the same day.

Dr. Thompson can employ several different brow lift techniques. The endoscopic brow lift technique uses advanced technology to provide excellent results while employing tiny incisions for a quicker recovery. The temporal lift (lateral lift) raises the eyebrows near the temples to restore a youthful shape to the brows. Additional techniques place the incision behind the hairline, directly in front of the hairline, or in a crease just above the brow through a forehead reduction surgery.

Recovery and Results

Dr. Thompson provides a list of aftercare instructions to help ensure excellent results, prevent infection, and emphasize comfort. Our expert staff is available to answer any questions during the recovery time. The doctor will examine the incision site during the first week to ensure the patient is healing correctly. For example, Tylenol or prescription pain medication, when needed, may relieve discomfort. Cold compresses will minimize swelling, and the patient must elevate their head while sleeping and resting to reduce swelling and encourage healing. Most patients resume their regular daily activity within one to two weeks. However, they should avoid strenuous exercise for the first two to three weeks.
