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.

Before the procedure, you should avoid blood-thinning medications and quit smoking to promote the healing process. You will receive detailed instructions during your consultation.
The procedure is usually performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. Through fine incisions discreetly placed at the hairline, we lift the forehead and eyebrow area to achieve a natural result.
After the surgery, you should avoid physical exertion for a few days and keep your head elevated. Minor swelling and bruising usually subside within a week. We will closely monitor you during the healing phase.
As with any surgical procedure, swelling, bruising, or infection may occur. In rare cases, temporary sensory disturbances or asymmetries may occur. A detailed explanation will be provided beforehand.
Costs vary depending on the extent of the procedure and individual circumstances. After a personal examination, we will provide you with a transparent quote.
Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
When is a forehead lift useful?
A forehead lift is advisable when the skin on the forehead is sagging and already drooping. The upper eyelids can then droop due to the excess weight of the skin, 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.
