Brow Lift & Forehead Lift

A brow lift for New Jersey patients lifts sagging eyebrows and removes age lines from the forehead, creating a more youthful appearance. Drooping brows result in a facial expression that can seem like a scowl or a frown. With a brow lift, this constantly upset or tired appearance can be alleviated.

Ideal Brow Lift Candidates

The best candidates for a brow lift, also called a forehead lift, are patients who are in good overall health and have realistic expectations. Non-smokers are ideal candidates, since smoking reduces skin elasticity and increases the chance of surgical complications. Smokers must quit several weeks before the procedure.

Brow Lift Types

There are several types of brow lift that can be performed based each patient’s needs:
• Coronal Brow Lift – Also called the traditional brow lift, this procedure involves the creation of a single incision behind the natural hairline.

• Pre-Trichial Brow Lift – During this method, an incision is made on the scalp, on or right behind the hairline, in a zigzag pattern. It does not move the hairline backward and can be used to move it forward in some cases. Results often last longer than those of other approaches. It is less invasive and results in a shorter recovery time than a traditional brow lift.

• Midforehead Crease – This is the least-invasive type of forehead lift. During it, tiny incisions are created within natural creases in the forehead. Out of all the brow-lift method available, this one requires the shortest amount of recovery time/downtime.

The Brow Lift Procedure

The forehead lift begins with the administration of anesthesia. Typically, local anesthesia with sedation is used. The type of anesthesia that will be used will be decided during the consultation. Once this has been administered, the patient will be comfortable and ready for a pain-free procedure.

Next, incisions will be created, allowing Dr. Ganchi access to the underlying tissues. Muscle tissues will be adjusted as needed, and excess skin and fat will be removed. Once all tissue adjustments have taken place, incisions will be closed with stitches.

The Brow Lift Recovery Process

Once the brow lift procedure is completed, you might experience some amount of tightness in the operative region. This is normal and will subside in a few days.

You may be able to take a shower with shampoo and soap after a few days; the bandage will need to be removed first.

There may be some discoloration and swelling around the eyes, which will disappear in time. Keep your head elevated at all times during brow lift recovery to assist with reduction of swelling.

Most patients resume normal activities in a couple of weeks. However, intense activities like sports and exercise at the gym will have to be avoided for several weeks. This is because they can cause the blood pressure to go up, which can interfere with the healing process.

The Cost of a Brow Lift

The forehead lift varies in cost. The price of this cosmetic procedure is affected by factors like the anesthesia used and the total surgery time. Additionally, the technique chosen can impact the overall cost.

  Dr. Ganchi and his team are the best around! The facility is absolutely beautiful. During my consultation appointment, I immediately felt welcome and comfortable. My rhinoplasty surgery was more than successful and recovery was quick and painless! 1 year later and I'm still complimented on his beautiful work!

  I just had my rhinoplasty surgery 1 week ago . Dr. Ganchi did an amazing job. Exactly what I was hoping for is what I received. I was unsure about the surgery and the process because I never had any before. The whole staff was great, patient, understanding and took great care of me. Dr. Ganchi has such a soft, gentle touch and takes his time. It shows with the results. Very minimal bruising first day and after that gone. Day by day, results are getting better and better.   If you are feeling hesitant or have concerns let me ease your mind and tell you, they were great and you are in great hands.

  Recently I had reconstructive nose surgery. The process was simple. So far I am 10 days into the recovery phase. It has not been scary or dreadful. Swelling around the eyes reduced after a few days! All that is left is keeping my nose protected! If you follow the instructions that Dr. Ganchi and his team lay out for you then it is smooth sailing!

  The best of the best.  Dr. G and his whole staff are amazing.  Honestly, you get what you pay for. He is so knowledgeable, comforting and surprisingly funny. Layla and Karen are also little angels.  I can’t recommend Dr. G’s office enough. He has changed my life for the better and I’m forever grateful.

  Greetings all! I recently had labiaplasty done with Dr.Ganchi. I found Dr.Ganchi’s practice long before life gave me time to proceed with this procedure. Therefore I was very happy through each step of the way. After a wonderful consultation in which Dr.Ganchi thoroughly explained what I should expect as far as having the procedure done and the healing process etc. I too am thorough and was left without a question to ask. The front desk staff is fabulous. They were informative which made me feel comfortable and at ease. I even purchased a facial and they were sweet and helpful. The surgery room was airy and I loved my view. I was totally comfortable during the entire procedure. I went right in and in no time I was home. The healing process was just as I was told it would be so felt just fine all throughout. I went back to work on the seventh day after the procedure. I am proud of myself for achieving this and you should too. It’s a life changer in many ways, from clothes feeling comfortable to wiping differently after peeing. I will certainly continue seeing Dr.Ganchi for other procedures, he is really the best! Thank you Dr.Ganchi!!

  Best decision I've ever made. Period.

For most, plastic surgery decisions are life changing. Not only physically, but mentally as well. Going under the knife voluntarily is a wild experience because YOU choose the surgeon, and with the surgeon, their team.

Let me just say real quick...Dr G., Laila, Karen, and Marcela are NJ's DREAM TEAM.

I had a breast augmentation performed at the end of June 2021, and WOW. Worth. Every.Penny. It hasn't even been a month of recovery and my results are amazing. I feel so sexy, so confident, and so complete. Brings me  tears knowing something I've wanted for ten years, is here, and I've been given exactly what I dreamt of.

Dr.G is the REAL DEAL. They make me feel like family when I'm there and can't wait to continue seeing them... from my breasts to my routine botox.. there's nothing he can't do.

  Dr Ganchi is a wonderful, caring doctor and a true artist. He put me back together again after four kids that did a number on my abdominals and I am so grateful to have found him. My results are unbelievable.  His staff is also top notch and hold your hand through every step of the process. I would recommend him without hesitation.

  I am in LOVE with the results of my breast augmentation! Dr. Ganchi and his staff exceeded my expectations and made me feel very comfortable throughout this entire process. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about him and his staff and they are all 100% accurate. Dr. Ganchi truly transformed my body and my confidence and I will forever be grateful! I have already referred him to a couple of my friends, and highly encourage others to do the same!

  Dr. Ganchi and his staff are the best of the best. They all made me feel so comfortable! Dr. Ganchi is so gentle, which made my recovery process painless and easy. I was worried about the recovery process for a rhinoplasty, but I would do it all over again if I had to. It was so much easier than I thought it was going to be all thanks to Dr. Ganchi. I will definitely be recommending Dr. Ganchi to everyone I know!!!
