Lift Your Sagging Brows
Repositioning the outer brow can restore definition, balance your features, and lift parts of the upper face.
If the tail of your brow has begun to droop, it can create heaviness around your eyes and a tired expression. Our brow lift in South Barrington corrects outer brow descent and reveals a more rested, youthful look. Dr. Renee Burke expertly performs this procedure to create graceful improvements without overcorrecting.
The Brow Lift Process
Consultation
We start with a conversation about any heaviness or drooping around your outer brow. Dr. Burke examines your face, evaluates your skin, and determines the best technique to address lateral hooding or brow descent. She then walks you through a personalized plan that reflects your needs and comfort level.
Procedure
While you’re under IV sedation or general anesthesia, Dr. Burke makes precise incisions hidden within the hairline. She carefully lifts and repositions the tail of the brow to reduce sagging and open the outer eye. The goal is to restore balance and brightness while preserving natural movement.
Recovery
Rest quietly at home while initial swelling and bruising resolve. During this time, avoid lifting, bending, or exerting force, and refrain from driving while on pain medication. Most patients see changes within 4 weeks as healing progresses and new, refined shapes reveal themselves.
