Brow Lift

Consultations offered at our two convenient locations in Houston and Lake Jackson, TX

When your eyes disappear behind heavy brows, the world misses your story.

There comes a moment when your most expressive feature—your eyes—becomes hidden behind drooping skin. You may notice that you look serious in candid photos even when you are happy, or that friends constantly ask if you are tired or “okay.”

At Town & Country Plastic Surgeons + Medspa, we understand that this isn’t just about vanity; it is about communication. When the brow descends, it casts a shadow over the eyes, effectively “turning off” your ability to express emotion clearly. Led by Dr. Scott Yarish and Dr. Janak Parikh, our goal is never to create a “surprised” look, but to restore the natural, open harmony between how you feel inside and what others see.

Before and After Photos

When You’re Ready to Reclaim Your Eyes

Brow aging is often gradual, causing you to adapt your habits without realizing it. You may be an ideal candidate if:

  • The “Hidden” Look: Your upper eyelids have disappeared under heavy brow skin, making eye makeup pointless.
  • Compensatory Habits: You have developed deep forehead lines from constantly lifting your eyebrows just to see properly.
  • Vision Obstruction: You find yourself tilting your head back slightly to make eye contact.
  • Sad or Angry Appearance: The weight of your brow creates a “scowling” resting expression that doesn’t match your mood.

Your Customized Surgical Options

We do not believe in a “one-lift-fits-all” approach. Your surgery is fully customized based on your hairline, forehead height, and the specific location of your brow descent.

Endoscopic Brow Lift (Minimally Invasive)

  • Best For: Patients with moderate brow descent seeking minimal scarring.
  • The Technique: Uses small incisions hidden within the hairline and advanced camera technology to precisely release and elevate the brow tissue.
  • The Benefit: A shorter recovery period with significant eye-area restoration.

Temporal Brow Lift (Lateral Lift)

  • Best For: Clients whose outer brow (tail) creates the most significant hooding.
  • The Technique: Focuses solely on lifting the outer corners to open the eye area and create a pleasing, youthful arch.
  • The Benefit: Restores visibility to the eyes without the need for extensive forehead surgery.

Pretrichial Brow Lift (Hairline Lowering)

  • Best For: Patients with a naturally high forehead who worry a traditional lift will make it look higher.
  • The Technique: An incision is made right at the hairline.
  • The Benefit: This sophisticated technique lifts the brow while lowering the hairline, reducing the vertical height of the forehead for more balanced proportions.

Coronal Brow Lift (Traditional)

  • Best For: Severe brow descent where the eyes are significantly hidden.
  • The Technique: An incision is made across the top of the head, hidden within the hair.
  • The Benefit: Provides the most dramatic, long-lasting lift and comprehensive smoothing of deep forehead furrows.

Note: Depending on your needs, we also perform Direct and Gliding brow lifts, which we will discuss during your consultation.

Addressing Your Biggest Concerns

“Will I look surprised?” We know you’ve seen results that look artificial, and that is exactly what we avoid. Modern brow lift techniques focus on repositioning rather than over-lifting. We restore your brow to its natural, youthful position on the orbital rim—not higher.

“What about my hairline?” Hairline preservation is a critical part of our planning. We carefully select the technique (such as the Pretrichial lift) that best serves your anatomy, ensuring we either maintain or improve your hairline position.

The Procedure & Recovery

What to Expect

  • Anesthesia: Performed under general anesthesia or IV sedation in our accredited surgical facility.
  • Duration: The procedure typically takes 1 to 3 hours.
  • Closures: Staples or sutures are used to close incisions and are typically removed about one week following surgery.

The Timeline

  • First Week: You will experience tightness and mild discomfort. Swelling is normal and may extend to the eyelids.
  • Weeks 2–3: Most clients feel comfortable returning to work and social events.
  • Long-Term: Results typically last 10–15 years. While you will continue to age, the structural improvement ensures your eyes remain visible and expressive for the long term.

Comprehensive Upper Face Harmony

Restoring the brow often reveals opportunities to perfect the entire upper face. Many patients choose to combine their brow lift with:

  • Upper Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty): To remove the skin that the brow lift alone cannot address.
  • Laser Skin Resurfacing: To smooth fine lines and sun damage around the eyes.
  • Facelift: To harmonize the rejuvenated upper face with the cheek and jawline contours.
