Forehead lifts are commonly performed on people in their 40s to 60s, in order to slow down the visible effects of aging. It can also help people with inherited conditions, such as furrowed lines above the nose or droopy eyebrows. In younger people, a forehead lift can raise congenitally low eyebrows, which give the face a sad expression. Deep furrows between the eyes are also reduced with a forehead lift. A forehead lift is performed as a reconstructive procedure in people whose brows are so low that they interfere with their upper field of vision.
Forehead lifts are performed on people with these facial characteristics:
sagging brows
tissue that hangs down at the outer part of the eyelids
horizontal wrinkling on the forehead
dysfunctional nose
