As the forehead ages, horizontal lines and vertical frown lines between the eyebrows become more prominent. For years, the main cosmetic solution was surgery, specifically brow lift, or a more short-term non-surgical approach with neurotoxins (such as Botox). Now, patients can benefit from a minimally invasive surgical treatment that offers most of the same benefits as traditional brow lifts, but with fewer scars and a significantly faster recovery time.

Non-Surgical Brow Lift in Bradenton & Sarasota, FL
As the forehead ages, horizontal lines and vertical frown lines between the eyebrows become more prominent.

This advanced skin tightening technology enables her to perform a minimally invasive brow lift, producing a younger and more attractive appearance without excessive scarring or prolonged downtime.
Renuvion is an FDA-approved treatment that utilizes a combination of radiofrequency energy and helium gas to produce a cool beam plasma, which tightens the skin. This is the only device that is FDA cleared for both sub-dermal tissue contraction (tightening of the skin below the chin and the neck areas) and removal of fine lines and wrinkles on the face (through plasma skin resurfacing).
Renuvion for minimally invasive browlift is currently considered an off-label use of the technology.
Following this treatment, patients can expect to see a smoother forehead with less-pronounced lines. Additionally, the arch of the eyebrow is lifted to a more youthful yet natural-looking position, creating a more relaxed and aesthetically pleasing appearance in the upper face and eye areas. The expected downtime for this procedure is about one week.
Recovery following a Renuvion brow lift is generally quicker and more comfortable than after traditional surgery. Most patients experience minimal discomfort, with typically mild swelling or bruising in the treated area. Slight redness may occur, but it usually resolves within a few days. Many patients can resume their normal activities immediately, although adherence to aftercare instructions is crucial to ensure optimal results. Strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for a short period to allow the tissues to settle and heal properly. Recovery Timeline
Day 1-2: Mild swelling and slight redness may be present; minimal discomfort is expected.
Day 3-5: Swelling begins to subside; patients can perform most normal activities.
Week 1: Any bruising or redness continues to fade; normal skincare routines can typically resume.
Weeks 2-3: Patients can gradually resume strenuous exercise as advised by our surgeon.
Weeks 4-6: Full results become more apparent, and treated areas are generally fully healed.
Individuals considering a non-surgical brow lift typically have mild to moderate forehead lines and wrinkles, and want to improve the appearance of their brow area without undergoing traditional surgery. Candidates should have good skin elasticity, as this allows the skin to respond effectively to the Renuvion treatment. Our surgeon also evaluates facial structure and natural facial expressions to create a balanced, rejuvenated look.
Candidates should also have realistic expectations about the results, understanding that the procedure subtly lifts and smooths the brow area rather than dramatically altering the appearance. A thorough consultation with our qualified surgeon can determine if the treatment is suitable for each individual’s unique anatomy and goals.
The cost of non-surgical brow lifts in Bradenton, FL, typically ranges from $3,000 to $7,000 per treatment. To maximize the results of a non-surgical brow lift, Bradenton patients should discuss their personal aesthetic goals with the surgeon during the consultation. The final cost can vary depending on several factors, including the extent of treatment, the patient’s facial anatomy, and any additional procedures that may be recommended to achieve the desired outcome.
