How Forehead Lifts Can Complement Eyelid Surgery for a Refreshed Look

If you’re concerned about the signs of aging, combining two or more facial surgeries can offer a more comprehensive rejuvenation than individual procedures.

Dr. David Bray, based in Torrance, California, is one of only a few surgeons in the nation—and the only one in the South Bay—certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and the American Board of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery.

His unique skills and extensive training make him one of the most accomplished plastic surgeons in the area, and he gained an outstanding reputation for his unique customized approach to face surgeries such as forehead lift and eyelid surgery.

These two procedures make a great pair if you’re looking for a younger-looking upper face.

Eyelid Surgery for Youthful Eyes

Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) restores and refreshes the eye area. Upper blepharoplasty tightens the skin and removes extra skin under the eyebrows and above the eyes. It corrects problems like sagging, drooping, and lost upper eyelid definition.

Lower blepharoplasty tightens the skin, repositions fat pads, and sometimes removes excess skin under the eyes. It can remove undereye bags and correct a perpetually tired appearance.

Blepharoplasty only treats the area up to the eyebrows—so what happens if you’re also unhappy with the area above your eyebrows? 

That’s when a combination procedure might be right for you. The eye and forehead areas are closely connected, so a combination of eyelid surgery and a forehead lift can give you a refreshed and balanced look for your entire upper face.

What Is a Forehead Lift?

A forehead, or brow, lift corrects drooping eyebrows, smooths forehead wrinkles, and reduces the tired, aged appearance that can come from sagging in the upper part of the face.

In this procedure, Dr. Bray lifts both the skin and underlying muscles. This corrects the wrinkling and sagging with long-lasting effects.

Many people combine a forehead lift with eyelid surgery to enhance their overall results further.

Combining Eyelid Surgery and Forehead Lift

Combining the two procedures ensures your surgical correction looks natural, balanced, and youthful. Treating both areas at once greatly reduces the risk of either area looking overly tight or “pulled.”

In addition, the combination approach means you only have one recovery. You get less downtime and a more comprehensive result.
