What To Expect During Your Brow / Forehead Lift Surgery Consultation 

Brow / Forehead Lift Surgery 

A detailed initial consultation is the first and one of the most important steps in your plastic surgery journey for a brow lift or forehead lift. A successful consultation will set the stage for a smooth and effective surgery procedure.  

You should be prepared to engage closely with the surgeon during the consultation process and utilize the opportunity to clear all your concerns and doubts in order to make a well-informed decision. Oculoplastic & reconstructive surgeon Dr. Tanya Khan provides brow lift and forehead lift to patients in Plano, Dallas, Texas, and surrounding locations. 

Patient Education  

Your surgeon’s first goal will be to educate you about various aspects of brow lift surgery, and apprise you of any alternative or complementary surgical and non-surgical treatment options according to your unique needs.  

You should participate proactively in this consultation process and provide your inputs and feedback to the surgeon clearly so that they can craft the best possible surgery plan for you.  

Apart from a discussion on the medical and cosmetic aspects of your brow lift procedure, your surgeon will also discuss the costs involved in this elective procedure. This will help you plan your budget, financing, and payment options ahead of time.  

Assessing Your Cosmetic Goals 

Your surgeon will utilize the consultation opportunity to understand what exactly has been bothering you about your upper face appearance, and specifically about the look of your brows and forehead. If you have a certain image in mind, you should preferably carry pictures from a beauty magazine or website to show the kind of appearance you are looking for.  

Medical Evaluation  

Your surgeon will review your medical records during the consultation to make sure you are ready for facial surgery and anesthesia. They will examine your facial structure and the appearance of brows and forehead to note the kind of cosmetic corrections you may be requiring.  

Based on your cosmetic goals and your general health and anatomical elements, your surgeon will create a customized brow lift or forehead lift surgery plan.   

Sharing Information 

If you have an underlying medical condition, you should inform you surgeon clearly so that they can modify the surgery procedure as necessary. During your consultation, you should also be forthcoming about lifestyle behaviors such as smoking and drinking, so that your surgeon can provide you appropriate instructions.  

If you have been currently taking any prescription or non-prescription drugs and supplements, your surgeon should know about it at the initial consultation itself so that they can make any adjustments if needed. The surgeon may also order some diagnostic or medical tests, depending on certain factors.  

Preparation and Recovery Guidelines 

Your surgeon or their team will guide you about how to prepare for your brow lift surgery as well as post-operative recovery. They may ask you to apply for leave for about one week from your workplace post-operatively and schedule your surgery on a mutually convenient date.
