Brow Lift Surgery

(technically called browplasty also known as a forehead lift)

This surgery is commonly preformed on both women and men.

As the forehead ages, horizontal forehead 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 the traditional brow lift, but with fewer scars and a much faster recovery time. Double board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Melinda Lacerna is Bradenton and Sarasota, Florida’s top provider of Renuvion. This advanced skin tightening technology allows her to perform a minimally invasive brow lift that produces a younger and more attractive look without excessive scarring or prolonged downtime.

A brow lift is performed to raise the position of the eyebrows and smooth the forehead. Through small incisions, the underlying tissues are adjusted, and excess skin is removed. As a result, the brows are elevated, and the forehead appears more youthful. The procedure can help reduce wrinkles and frown lines, creating a more relaxed and refreshed look. Typically, it is done under anesthesia, and recovery involves some swelling and bruising, which gradually subsides. The final outcome is a rejuvenated appearance, enhancing the overall facial aesthetic.

Renuvion for minimally invasive browlift is an FDA-approved treatment that uses a combination of radiofrequency energy and helium gas to produce a cool beam plasma that tightens the skin.

How Eyelid Surgery Works

Renuvion is an FDA-approved treatment that uses a combination of radiofrequency energy and helium gas to produce a cool beam plasma that 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. Surgical treatment of the forehead takes about 30 minutes. After the administration of local anesthesia, two one-inch incisions are placed within the hairline, and the brows are elevated surgically to a more aesthetically pleasing location. Next, Renuvion plasma energy tightens the forehead skin to produce an elevated brow position. After the surgery, the skin appears firmer immediately, but the results continue to improve in the ensuing months as collagen production (stimulated by the gentle heat produced by the plasma energy) continues to smooth and contract the skin.

Changes Patients Can Expect from the Minimally Invasive Brow Lift

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 for a more relaxed and aesthetic look to the upper face and eye areas. The expected downtime for this procedure is about one week.

It's been over a year since Dr. Lacerna sucked the spare tire off my waist and flanks. People ask me all the time if I had the chance to do it over again, would I...and the answer simply is YES. The doctor, facility and staff were great, and I would highly recommend LA Plastic Surgery.

I'm tired of looking tired and old so booked a consultation with Dr Lacerna to explore my options. She's closed several MOHS surgeries on me so I feel very comfortable with her already. The consultation was great! Met first with the lovely Brianna who vetted what I was thinking about, my concerns , budget, etc. Brianna reviewed those with Dr Lacerna who then came in with a solution I wasn't even aware of! Super excited for my upcoming Renuvion treatment.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am very impressed with this practice. From the 1st phone call when Brianna scheduled my consultation, to the reminder texts, to the waiting room and wait time (virtually none). The exam room is beautiful and inviting. ( the one i was in did not have an exam table, just a nice leather couch with sequin pillows and a beautiful mirror )The nurse Michelle answered all my questions and was very informative. Then Dr. Lacerna came in, listened to me and explained the procedure in great detail, and I felt very comfortable with all of these great ladies.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I went in for my consultation last week and had a terrific experience. Today I booked my surgery. Can't wait to see the final results... I was so nervous thinking about doing this but Dr. Lacerna and her team made things so comfortable! Bring on Nov!

As a 68 year old woman I have never had fillers or anything done before. I disliked the lines above my lips and around my mouth. Went to 4 other plastic surgery office for consults. I was thinking of CO2 lasers but worry about changing skin color and the monkey look I have seen many times. Dr. Lacerna was honest and explained that she considers laser to be old technology. She suggest renuvion resurfacing which uses radio frequency to split helium into cool plasma beams. She showed me before and after pictures
