Arrange a consultation

As we age, the skin and tissue in the forehead and eyebrow area can lose elasticity, resulting in drooping brows and forehead wrinkles. A more open, refreshed look can positively impact your overall appearance. With our specialized eyebrow and forehead lift procedures, we offer you the opportunity to lift drooping brows and smooth forehead wrinkles to achieve a naturally rejuvenated appearance.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

When is a forehead lift useful?

A forehead lift is useful when the skin on the forehead is slack and is already slightly sagging. Upper eyelids can then sag due to the skin being too heavy, resulting in a tired and aged appearance.

Prof. Dr. Fansa is truly exceptional. He is not only an excellent breast surgeon who also understands how to communicate appropriately. He also listens carefully and attends to patients' needs with the utmost patience and compassion. He is supported in this by a uniquely warm team of staff. Thanks to all of this, I receive the optimal treatment for me and my health situation, not only in terms of the treatment directly provided by Prof. Dr. Fansa, but also in terms of supportive treatments and follow-up therapies from other disciplines.
