Awaken an Aging Brow Line
As we age, the distance between our eyelashes and brows begins to shorten, and our eyebrows shift downward. Our foreheads sag, and wrinkles and frown lines form, causing us to appear older, tired, or even angry. If you’re looking for facial rejuvenation to address wrinkles, droopy eyes, and an older, tired appearance, a brow lift could help.
A brow lift raises the eyebrows for a more youthful, alert, and friendly appearance. Stephan Baker is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery. He is a cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgeon with over 20 years of experience and has provided countless patients with excellent facial plastic surgery. Dr. Baker is proud to offer this surgery to men and women who have developed signs of aging in this crucial area and he strives to deliver the best brow lift Miami has to offer!
A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a popular plastic surgery that is performed to lift sagging eyebrows and treat lines and wrinkles on the forehead. A brow lift revives aging skin and transforms sagging brows. Over time, factors such as gravity, sun exposure, and the natural aging process can cause the brow to sag, creating a tired or angry appearance. A brow lift corrects these issues by lifting the sagging skin and repositioning the underlying tissues and muscles.
There are several techniques used for brow lifts, including the traditional (or coronal) brow lift, the endoscopic brow lift, and the lateral (or temporal) brow lift. Each technique varies in terms of incision placement and the specific areas of the brow that are targeted.
The results of a brow lift are long-lasting, providing a refreshed and youthful appearance by reducing forehead wrinkles, lifting sagging brows, and improving the overall contour of the upper face.
Elevate Your Entire Appearance
When it comes to aesthetics, the forehead and eyes are one of the most critical areas of the face. A brow lift procedure improves the appearance of the entire area and helps patients feel more confident. By addressing the visible signs of aging in the upper face, a brow lift can significantly enhance your overall facial harmony and balance.
Additional benefits include the potential for long-lasting results and the versatility of the procedure, which can be customized to meet individual needs. Whether performed alone or in conjunction with other facial surgeries, such as eyelid lifts or facelifts, a brow lift can significantly enhance your facial aesthetics and contribute to a more youthful and vibrant appearance. Furthermore, modern brow lift techniques are designed to minimize scarring and reduce recovery time, allowing patients to enjoy their refreshed look with minimal downtime.
“I do every procedure three times. I do it all in my head in advance. I do the actual surgery. I review it all from start to finish to look for ways to improve. This way, each procedure I do is my best work.”

Learn About Your Options
During your brow lift consultation with Dr. Stephan Baker, he will review your health history, discuss your cosmetic goals, and examine your skin and facial structure. Dr. Baker will show you before-and-after photos of brow lifts, facelifts, and other cosmetic procedures and will provide you with a personalized treatment plan. This is an ideal opportunity to ask any questions and get to know Dr. Baker and his staff before scheduling your procedure.
Good Preparation Supports Beautiful Results
Dr. Baker will provide you with comprehensive pre-operative instructions to ensure the best possible outcome for your brow lift surgery. These instructions may include lab testing and a medical examination from your general practitioner. It is essential to quit smoking at least three months before surgery and stop taking aspirin or any medication that thins your blood three weeks prior to the procedure. This preparation helps improve circulation, encourages healing, and reduces potential bruising or bleeding issues. Staying well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water in the week leading up to your surgery is also crucial. We recommend arranging for a family member or friend to assist you during your initial recovery and to drive you home after the procedure.
Dr. Baker is a highly-skilled plastic surgeon who creates personalized surgical plans based on each patient’s unique needs and goals. The brow lift surgery is a same-day procedure performed under general and local anesthesia in a hospital-accredited outpatient surgery center. One of the techniques Dr. Baker often uses is the lateral brow lift, which is designed to improve the appearance of eyebrows that droop on the outer side and address lateral hooding on the sides of the upper eyelid. This technique specifically targets the outer brow area without altering the rest of the eyebrows or forehead. The lateral brow lift is frequently combined with a facelift or as an adjunctive procedure to refresh the outer area of the eye. It is the most commonly performed brow lift today, as many patients primarily experience sagging in their outer (lateral) brow areas.
Dr. Baker’s meticulous attention to detail and extensive experience ensure that each patient receives a tailored treatment plan designed to achieve natural-looking rejuvenation. By following the personalized care plan and post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Baker and his team, patients can expect optimal healing and long-lasting results.
Our expert staff will provide detailed care instructions to prevent infection, maximize comfort, and ensure that you achieve the best results. Dr. Baker will examine the surgical site in his office every few days for the first two weeks to ensure that you are healing well. We recommend Tylenol or prescription pain medication to relieve any discomfort. Use cold compresses to minimize swelling, elevate your head while sleeping, avoid strenuous exercise during your recovery for the first three to four weeks, and avoid direct sun exposure.
Brow lift surgery offers long-lasting results, but it will not stop the aging process. Everyone ages at a different rate depending on genetics, skin type, and health habits, including diet and exercise. Dr. Baker may recommend non-surgical rejuvenation treatments to help you maintain or enhance your forehead lift results. For example, regular Botox treatments will help keep new wrinkles to a minimum and maintain brow position.
Learn About Pricing
The average cost of a brow lift in Miami typically ranges anywhere between $3,000 and $10,000. This can vary depending on several factors. Key factors influencing the cost include the expertise and experience of the surgeon, the specific technique used (such as traditional, endoscopic, or temporal brow lift), the complexity of the procedure, and whether it’s combined with other cosmetic surgeries.

The brow lift only addresses the forehead and upper area of the face and is often combined with an eyelid lift or facelift for overall facial rejuvenation. Dr. Baker will ask about your long-term goals during your consultation and may recommend combining another treatment with the brow lift.
Dr. Baker will discuss brow lift risks during your consultation. Possible risks may include bruising and swelling, incision bleeding, anesthesia complications, infection, and the need for revision surgery.

The incisions should fade significantly over time.
