Brow Lift in Columbia, SC

Overview

What is Brow Lift?

A brow lift raises a low or heavy brow and softens the horizontal lines and furrows of the forehead. The result is a smoother, more relaxed upper face that looks refreshed rather than surprised.

Dr. Leppard’s approach prioritizes results that are refined, balanced, and true to each patient’s natural features. During your consultation he takes the time to understand what you want to achieve, then explains every option, tradeoff, and realistic outcome so you can make an informed decision.

To learn whether brow lift is right for you, the best next step is a personal consultation.

FAQ

Brow Lift frequently asked questions

How long does a brow lift last?

A surgical brow lift offers long-lasting results, often many years. You will continue to age naturally, but your brows will sit higher than they would have without surgery.

Where are brow lift incisions placed?

Incisions are usually placed within or along the hairline so scars are hidden. Dr. Leppard chooses the technique based on your anatomy and goals.

Is a brow lift the same as eyelid surgery?

No. A brow lift raises the brow and smooths the forehead, while eyelid surgery removes excess eyelid skin. Many patients benefit from one or both.

This information is general and does not replace a medical consultation. Individual results vary.
