Browlift – The Procedure
The brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a plastic surgery procedure which restores a smoother, more youthful appearance to the forehead area by elevating the eyebrows and minimizing forehead furrows and ridges. This is an ideal procedure for individuals with aging conditions around the forehead, including frown lines and low or heavy brows.
*Each patient is unique and individual results may vary.
At Laser & Cosmetic Surgery Specialists, Dr. Ran Rubinstein and his professional staff are committed to helping patients look and feel their very best in a safe and comfortable environment. Dr. Rubinstein is board certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology / Head and Neck Surgery.
The Procedure
The brow lift is typically performed with local anesthesia and sedation or general anesthesia and may take anywhere from one to two hours to complete on average. For a traditional brow lift, the incision is located just behind the hairline across the top of the head. For an endoscopic brow lift, three to five short incisions are made behind the hairline and a small camera device known as an endoscope is used. Working through the incisions, Dr. Rubinstein will elevate the forehead and brows and remove excess skin and tissue before closing the incisions.
Possible Complications
Complications are generally rare with the brow lift, but as with any surgery there are potential risks. These may include adverse anesthesia reactions, bleeding, scarring, asymmetry, nerve injury and infection.
Following your doctor’s advice before and after surgery can help to minimize your risks.
After Surgery: What to Expect
Some swelling and bruising can be expected after surgery and this typically resolves within a few weeks. Patients may also experience some temporary numbness and discomfort. You may be advised to apply cold compresses and perform eye exercises to help minimize swelling and regain mobility. Bandages are usually removed within a day or two and stitches are removed within one week. Most patients are able to return to work within one to two weeks. Recovery is typically milder following an endoscopic brow lift and patients may be able to return to work sooner.

Dr. Rubinstein and staff,
This is a belated testimonial of the great service I have received as a patient of your office for about a year now. I have been in for sinus/allergy consultation, allergy shots and Botox and Juvederm treatments. The office is beautiful and staff id terrific, very friendly and helpful, especially Jackie and Natalie.
I have been most impressed with Dr. Rubinstein’s cosmetic treatments. He is very patient and personable and explains what he is doing and why. The results have been better that I expected. My face simply looks better not altered. I look more rested and even feel more relaxed in my face, if that possible. My worse wrinkle, a deep crease between my eyebrows is gone and has not come back. I had 3 treatments total over the last year, 2 Botox+Juvederm and 1 just Botox. I am always amazed that ican go right back to work without swelling or visible marks on my face. I would highly recommend Dr. Rubinstein for anyone considering these and other cosmetic treatments.
Of course he also provides top notch ENT and Allergy care as I tell my audiology patients.
Keep doing what you are doing!
Sincerely,
