Refined Brow Rejuvenation for Men at Plastic Surgical Associates

At Plastic Surgical Associates in Fort Collins, brow lift surgery for men is tailored to male anatomy, goals, and lifestyle. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Diane Duncan combines decades of surgical experience with a nuanced understanding of how men age. Her focus is on subtle elevation, not dramatic change, so you look rested, capable, and confident while still looking like yourself.

What Is a Brow Lift for Men?

A brow lift for men is a surgical procedure that carefully raises and reshapes a heavy or low-set brow. The goal is to soften deep forehead lines, reduce a chronically tired or stern expression, and improve balance between the brow and eyes.

Unlike traditional approaches that can create an overly arched or feminine brow, male brow lift techniques respect flatter, straighter brow lines. The result is a refreshed, natural look that fits your features and expressions.

A brow lift for men can address:

Heavy, low, or drooping brows
Deep horizontal forehead lines
Vertical frown lines between the eyebrows
A tired, “angry,” or stressed appearance
Brow asymmetry that affects facial balance

Why Choose Plastic Surgical Associates for a Male Brow Lift?

Male-Specific Aesthetic Planning

Dr. Duncan understands that men want to look better, not different. She designs brow lifts that maintain a strong, masculine brow position and avoid over-elevation that can look unnatural or surprised.

Board-Certified Surgical Expertise

With extensive training in plastic and reconstructive surgery and global teaching experience, Dr. Duncan brings advanced technique and judgment to every case. Safety, function, and subtlety guide each surgical decision.

Integrated, Regenerative Approach

When appropriate, Dr. Duncan may blend brow lifting with skin tightening or regenerative treatments that improve tissue quality and longevity. This supports smoother healing and a more complete, yet still conservative, rejuvenation.

Supportive, Professional Team Environment

Our experienced nurses, medical assistants, and front office staff understand the priorities of male patients. They provide straightforward information, discretion, and attentive care from consultation through follow-up.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Brow Lift for Men?

You may be a good candidate if you notice a heavy brow, deep forehead creases, or a stern expression that does not match how you feel. During your consultation, Dr. Duncan will review your medical history, facial anatomy, vision, and goals to determine whether a brow lift, eyelid surgery, or a combination is most appropriate. Ideal candidates are in good general health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about surgery and recovery.

What to Expect During a Male Brow Lift

Your experience begins with a detailed consultation that focuses on your concerns, work demands, and desired degree of change. Photos and careful measurements help Dr. Duncan map your current brow position and plan natural elevation.

The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia or deep sedation.
Incisions are placed at or behind the hairline or in discreet locations, depending on technique.
The brow and forehead tissues are gently lifted and repositioned for improved balance.
Muscles responsible for deep frown lines may be selectively softened.
Incisions are closed with fine sutures, and you recover in our accredited surgical facility before going home the same day.

Brow Lift Recovery and Results

Most men experience swelling and bruising around the forehead and eye area for the first week or two. Keeping the head elevated and using cold compresses as instructed can help reduce discomfort and swelling.

Many patients return to desk work within ten to fourteen days, depending on visibility and comfort. As swelling resolves over several weeks, the brow appears naturally elevated, forehead lines soften, and the face looks more open and relaxed. Results are long lasting, although normal aging continues.

Subtypes of Brow Lift for Men

Different techniques are chosen based on anatomy, hairline position, and goals:

Endoscopic Brow Lift: Uses small incisions within the hairline and a camera to gently elevate the brow.
Lateral (Temporal) Brow Lift: Focuses on lifting the outer brow to correct lateral hooding.

Open or Coronal Brow Lift: Less commonly used, typically reserved for select cases requiring more extensive repositioning.

Alternative or Related Procedures

Blepharoplasty for Men: Reduces upper lid heaviness and under-eye bags for a more rested look.
Non-Surgical Brow Rejuvenation: Neuromodulators or skin tightening treatments for mild brow descent.
Facial Fat Transfer: Restores subtle volume in the upper face for more youthful balance.
Skin Rejuvenation: Laser or RF-based treatments to improve forehead texture and fine lines.

Brow Lift Frequently Asked Questions

Will a brow lift make me look surprised?

No. Dr. Duncan specifically avoids overlifting. Her goal is a natural, masculine brow position that looks rested rather than startled or arched.

How visible will the scars be?

Incisions are placed at or behind the hairline or in natural creases. Once fully healed, most scars are difficult to see in everyday interactions.

Is a brow lift always necessary, or can injectables be enough?

For mild descent, neuromodulators and skin tightening may be sufficient. For moderate to significant heaviness, surgery is often the most reliable and long-lasting solution.

How long do brow lift results last?

Results generally last many years. While aging continues, most men enjoy sustained improvement, especially when they protect their skin and maintain healthy habits.

When can I return to exercise or sports?

Light walking is encouraged early. Strenuous exercise and contact sports are usually delayed for several weeks to protect healing tissues and reduce swelling.

Can a brow lift improve my visual field?

If a low brow contributes to upper field obstruction, lifting it can improve vision. Dr. Duncan evaluates this during your examination.

Can I combine a brow lift with other procedures?

Yes. Many men choose to combine a brow lift with blepharoplasty, facial rejuvenation, or body contouring for more comprehensive improvement in a single surgery.
