Will A Browlift Get Rid Of My Forehead Wrinkles?

Q: Dr. Eppley, So I was thinking of endoscopic brow lift, with pinch blepharoplasty. I don’t like the wrinkles in my forehead, and I would like it to be less heavy. My eyes have quite a bit of crinkling on the sides. I’m also interested in some other procedures, but I’d like to start there. Thank you.

A: Skin wrinkles that occur in the forehead and at the outer eye are not going to be solved by browlifts or blepharoplasty surgery. Those are best treated by Botox injections. Browlifts lift the eyebrows and make them less heavy. Blepharoplasties remove skin and fat.

Both can be useful for you but you have to understand what they can and can not do.
