Brow Lift – Baton Rouge, LA

Overview

Baton Rouge, LA plastic surgeon, Dr. Erick Sanchez performs brow lift surgeries regularly at Sanchez Plastic Surgery. It is a popular cosmetic surgery that corrects sagging skin on the brow due to the natural process of aging, and repositions the forehead skin at the eyebrow. A brow lift erases the tired, sad or angry look of a lowered brow. Additionally, this may improve the appearance of the upper eyelid (to look youthful and rested). Dr. Sanchez can discuss several surgical techniques and post-operation non-surgical treatments available at your consultation, and selection will depend on the severity of your brow and the goals that you wish to achieve.

Best Candidates

The best candidates for those seeking brow lift surgery, include men and/or women who have:

  • Low set eyebrows that produce a “tired” or “frowning” appearance
  • Sagging eyelid that is caused by a droopy brow
  • Forehead wrinkles that appear near the brow
  • Overall good health; non-smokers

What to Expect

During the initial consultation, we will evaluate the overall health of the skin, which will include skin quality and looseness. He will also evaluate the folds and wrinkles of the forehead and hairline, as well as the position of the inner, middle and outer portions of the eyebrows and the upper eyelids. This evaluation will help him to determine if a brow lift is the best procedure, and eliminate if an eyelid lift is needed instead. During a brow lift, one of several possible surgical techniques will be used. Some common incision approaches include along the natural upper eyelid crease or the brow’s hairline. A slightly more invasive approach is a coronal incision, which runs from ear to ear underneath the patient’s hair. The endoscopic brow lift is most often used, which is the least invasive approach.

Brow Lift Recovery

Swelling and bruising are expected on the forehead and eyes after brow lift surgery, although this will vary between patients. This swelling subsides within the first 1-2 weeks. The forehead may have some decreased sensation that will improve over time. Most patients can resume modest activity in 7-10 days, with a complete recovery in about 3-4 weeks.

Expected Cost

Brow lift surgery, on average, costs between $4,500 to $7,000. Erick Sanchez, MD does not accept medical insurance.

REVIEWS

I researched abdominoplasty for months before I had a consultation with Dr Sanchez and his team. They were so available and patient with me through all of my questions even before I finally secured my surgery date. My husband attended my post op appointment with me and I was so impressed with how attentive Dr Sanchez was while he educated him on what was about to happen. I knew I would be pleased but my results exceeded my expectations and I’m so extremely happy!

Dr. Sanchez performed tummy tuck with 360 lipo I am currently 11 weeks post op and I cannot thank him enough for the awesome job he done and with the great bedside manner.... prior to choosing Sanchez I consulted with several local physicians and also surgeons in Miami and Dominican Republic. Decided on Sanchez due to his warm and welcoming and patient manner during my initial consultation. My surgery was on a Friday Dr. Sanchez gave my husband his personal cell phone number to contact him if I had any issues over the weekend that itself made me know that i had chosen the right doctor for my procedure..., I have absolutely no complaints about Dr. Sanchez or his entire staff and my results are amazing.
