Eyes are a mirror of our souls, are the first thing that people see first, so it is important to keep this
area young, beautiful and fresh.

Therefore the process of lifting the eyebrows, that Dr. Cengizhan Ekizceli performs, aims to tighten the facial skin in the front part of the
forehead, including the tissues located under it, and to get rid of excess fat.
It may also be necessary to raise the muscles and upper eyelids in order to reduce the signs of skin
aging.

● What is the process of raising an eyebrow?

In this technique, the muscles and tissues that cause wrinkles or drooping are tightened, the skin
becomes more elastic and the eyebrow is higher, which leads to reducing the work of the elevator
muscles, and then gradually reduce the wrinkles of the forehead without the need for Botox or Filler.
The operation helps relieve headaches, as it helps tighten the ligaments and muscles, reducing the
need for the forehead muscles to raise the eyebrow.

Before the brow lift procedure
The type, texture, and thickness of the skin is examined, whether it is suitable for such an operation,
and it is also determined whether the patient suffers from any specific diseases that prevent him
from performing the operation, and whether he has undergone other surgeries in the face area in
the past and some tests are done such as counting Comprehensive hematology and blood
chemistry test.

During brow lift surgery
Eyebrow lift surgery can be performed using several techniques.
An incision is made above the hairline and behind the ear, all the way to the upper part of the
face.

Then the surgeon installs the upper part of the face, fixing the tissues and removing the skin folds.
In both, the surgery requires muscle tightening, the eyebrow is raised and the muscle tissue
underneath is exposed, then it is stretched and sutured.
At the end of the operation, the incision is sutured and an elastic bandage is placed over it.
Eyebrow lift surgery takes a maximum of two hours and the patient needs to stay several days in the
hospital to be assured of the initial result.

● What are the risks of brow lift surgery?

Infection in the surgical incision bleeding, scars, hypersensitivity, damage to the nerves in the facial
area, and asymmetry between both eyebrows.

● How long does it take to recover after the operation?

Swelling and bleeding under the skin may occur, which usually disappears within two weeks.
The use of facial muscles should be avoided during the first days of surgery and the dressing is
usually removed within a few days depending on the cessation of bleeding.
