Procedure of Brow Lift

Procedure

An Open Brow Lift involves one continuous incision, beginning at the level of your ears and going up around your hair line. Depending on where your hair line is, the surgeon will move the incision line to avoid a visible scar.
An Endoscopic Brow Lift is a more advanced procedure and involves the use of a tiny camera to locate the imperfections, and smaller incisions to make the ...+

    A key aspect of preparing for any surgery is that your Surgeon understands your desires and expectations. At your initial consultation, your Consultant will explain the procedure in great detail, discuss your expectations and what he/she can achieve for you, ensuring you have realistic expectations of the results.
    Your Surgeon will also want to evaluate your current physical health and health history, ensuring you are a suitable candidate for surgery. Because this is an elective procedure, you and your Surgeon will naturally carefully discuss the benefits and risks involved, as is the case with any surgical procedure.-

    Excess skin is removed and occasionally fat and muscle is re-positioned to improve the longevity of the results. The procedure is usually performed under general anaesthetic and takes between one and a half and two hours. All River Medical surgical procedures involve an overnight hospital stay to allow us to closely monitor your recovery and ensure optimum safety. After all, a hospital environment is the safest and only adequate place to deal with any potential eventualities.-

    You will need someone to take you home when you are discharged by the Surgeon as you will not be able to drive. You may have bruising and swelling around the area. Your Surgeon will tell you more about the typical recovery process and may make recommendations based on your individual case but by and large expect to take between 7-10 days off work. If your job is physical you may require more time. Everyone recovers differently but you can rest assured that we will monitor you closely to ensure the swiftest, safest and most comfortable recovery.-

  • Why do you not have before and after pictures on your website?+-

    Before and after pictures on websites can be misleading as they may not be patients of the surgeon who will be carrying out your surgery. As every person has completely different expectations and different treatment requirements, it is a much more valuable tool for your Consultant to show pictures of not only surgeries that he/she has carried out but also show you results you will be likely to achieve.

Testimonials

It has been 6 months since my surgery and I am truly delighted with the result that I got. I have a collection of eye shadows now that I wear proudly and can apply without having to find my eye lid! The care and professionalism of the River Medical staff and my Consultant was fantastic and I would have no trouble recommending River Medical to anyone.
