The forehead and brow are often one of the first areas to yield to the aging process – sagging of the eyebrows and frown lines across the forehead are unwanted signs of aging that can make a person appear constantly tired, angry and unapproachable. Heavy, droopy brows cover the eyes and make them less visible and reduce your sharpness of vision.
A eyebrow thread lift surgery, when performed correctly, smooths deeply-etched forehead creases and lifts the upper face to reverse drooping in the eyebrows and forehead producing a more youthful, restful look.
Dr. Mather employs brow thread surgical techniques to reposition the muscles and skin, with incisions invisible, hidden in the hairline, once healed.
