Introduction
The forehead and brows tend to drift downward over time, creating a tired or stern appearance.
Dr. Abraham Pathak performs brow lift surgery at his Purchase practice for patients throughout Westchester County, Greenwich, New York, and the greater Tri-State area.
His expertise and attention to detail enable him to achieve results that enhance facial balance while preserving your natural features.
A brow lift elevates the eyebrows to a more youthful position and reduces the appearance of forehead and frown lines, as well as sagging skin above the eyes.
There are several techniques available, and the right one depends on your anatomy and goals. The most common approaches include:
Introduction
During your consultation, Dr. Pathak will discuss which method suits you best based on your facial structure and the degree of correction needed.
A longer incision behind the hairline allows for more dramatic correction in patients with significant sagging.
Small incisions are made behind the hairline, and a tiny camera helps guide the adjustments for minimal scarring and a faster recovery.
Focuses on lifting the outer portion of the brows to restore a more youthful arch and eliminate heaviness around the eyes.
The best candidates for Dr. Pathak’s brow lift are individuals who notice sagging brows, deep forehead creases, or frown lines that make them look angry, tired, or older than they feel.
You may be a good candidate if you:
Westchester, NY, and Greenwich, CT, patients often choose a brow lift in their 40s to 60s, but age isn’t the only factor. Genetics, sun exposure, and facial muscle movement can all contribute to sagging or drooping that may develop earlier.
Dr. Pathak evaluates each patient individually to determine whether a brow lift or another approach, such as eyelid surgery or non-surgical tightening, will achieve the best outcome.
A brow lift does far more than just lift the brows. It revitalizes your overall appearance and creates a smoother, more open look across the upper face. Some of the most notable benefits include:
Many patients also find that after a brow lift, their eyes appear larger and more defined, which can make them look more awake and refreshed without makeup or injectables.
Your first step toward a more youthful look in the Tri-State area and New York starts with a consultation at Dr. Pathak’s office in Purchase. During your appointment, Dr. Pathak will examine your forehead, brows, and upper eyelids to assess how they relate to the rest of your facial features. He’ll ask about your concerns, desired results, and any prior procedures or medical conditions that could affect healing.
This consultation helps Dr. Pathak design a personalized plan that fits your needs. He’ll explain the surgical technique, discuss anesthesia options, and outline what to expect during recovery.
Dr. Pathak begins by marking the incision lines in discreet areas, usually behind or within the hairline. Once the incisions are made, he gently lifts the tissue and repositions the underlying muscles to create a smoother, more elevated appearance. Excess skin may be removed to reduce sagging, and the incisions are then carefully closed to minimize scarring.
After surgery, a light bandage may be placed around the forehead to support the tissues as they heal. You’ll rest in a recovery area until you’re ready to go home. Because it’s an outpatient procedure, most patients return home the same day with the help of a friend or family member.
Your Guide to Post-Brow Lift Care
Mild swelling, bruising, and tightness across the forehead are common for the first week. Make sure you use cold compresses and keep your head elevated to help minimize these effects. Most Westchester, NY, and Greenwich, CT patients are comfortable enough to resume light activities within a few days and return to work after about one week.
Clients should also avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting for two weeks to allow proper healing. As swelling continues to decrease, the final results begin to appear, revealing smoother skin and a naturally lifted brow position.
The cost of a brow lift in Purchase, Westchester County, Greenwich, New York, and the greater Tri-State area can vary depending on the technique used, the extent of correction, and whether the procedure is combined with other facial surgeries.
