  Also known as a forehead lift, a brow lift is a procedure that reduces the appearance of the creases that form on the forehead or high on the bridge of the nose. It also minimizes the look of the pinched grooves that can develop above the nose and lifts low or sagging brows. The brow lift is designed for patients looking to rejuvenate their drooping brow for a wrinkle-free look that will erase years off of the face.
