(technically called brow lift also known as a eye lid lift or forehead lift)
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.
The future of Aesthetic Facial surgery is being performed now by Dr. Lacerna at LA Plastic Surgery! Check out this scarless browlift, upper and lower blepharoplasty with Renuvion helium rf plasma!
Dr. Lacerna presented this very specialized technique at the 2024 Renuvion Users Summit at Aria, Las Vegas!
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.
