Can a deep plane facelift include a brow lift?
Yes — a deep plane facelift can be combined with an endoscopic brow lift in a single procedure. The facelift addresses the midface, jowls, and neck, while the brow lift raises drooping eyebrows and reduces forehead wrinkles. Combined surgery takes 5–7 hours with a shared 2–3 week recovery period.

Can a deep plane facelift include a brow lift?
Yes — a deep plane facelift can be combined with an endoscopic brow lift in a single operation. The facelift addresses the midface, jowls, and neck while the brow lift raises a descended brow arch and softens forehead lines. Combined surgery takes 5–7 hours with a shared 2–3 week recovery — only marginally longer than either procedure alone. Combining is recommended when brow ptosis is visible, since a facelift alone will not correct the forehead or periorbital zone.

A deep plane facelift is combined with a brow lift to provide comprehensive facial rejuvenation, costing an additional $3,000-$8,000 and adding 1-2 hours to surgery. This integrated approach corrects both sagging cheeks and a heavy, drooping brow in a single recovery period, ensuring a balanced and natural-looking result.
- Corrects both brow ptosis (sagging) and midface aging in one procedure.
- Adds only minimally to the 2-3 week facelift recovery time.
- Achieves a harmonious result by preventing a lifted lower face from mismatching a heavy, aged brow.

Combining a the procedure with a brow lift adds $3,000-$8,000 and 1-2 hours to surgery time, but addresses both lower face sagging and brow ptosis in a single recovery period of 2-3 weeks. Endoscopic brow lift provides 3-5 mm of elevation through tiny hairline incisions, preventing the mismatch of a lifted lower face with a heavy, aged forehead.

Normal
20-25mm above pupil
Brow sits at the orbital rim in men, slightly above in women
High / Over-lifted
>28mm above pupil
Brow sits too far above rim; creates 'surprised' look

What Is with Brow Lift?
This advanced facial rejuvenation technique addresses the deeper layers of facial tissue, providing more natural and longer-lasting results compared to traditional methods.3The procedure repositions the SMAS layer along with the overlying skin, creating a more comprehensive lift without the pulled or windswept appearance.
Board-certified plastic surgeons who specialize in this technique have extensive training in facial anatomy and can achieve results that look natural while addressing significant signs of aging including jowls, nasolabial folds, and neck laxity.
How Much Does It Cost?
The cost varies significantly based on several factors:
- Surgeon Experience: Board-certified specialists typically charge $35,000-$75,000
- Geographic Location: Major cities like NYC and LA have higher costs
- Facility Fees: Hospital vs. accredited surgical center
- Anesthesia: General vs. local with sedation
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Ideal candidates for this procedure typically share these characteristics:
Good Candidates
- • Patients with heavy, drooping brows causing a tired appearance
- • Those with deep horizontal forehead lines or frown lines
- • Patients wanting combined upper face and lower face rejuvenation
- • Non-smokers with good skin elasticity in the forehead area
Not Recommended For
- • Patients with very high hairlines (may worsen with lifting)
- • Those with active scalp conditions or infections
- • Patients who only need Botulinum toxin-level correction

Βασικά Στοιχεία
Common Misconceptions
Myth: Brow lift always creates a surprised look
Fact: Modern brow lift techniques, especially when combined with deep plane, create subtle, natural elevation. The surprised look is associated with outdated techniques.
Myth: You cannot do brow lift and facelift at the same time
Fact: Combining procedures is common and often preferred. It reduces overall recovery time and ensures harmonious results across the entire face.
Myth: Brow lift scars are always visible
Fact: Endoscopic brow lift uses tiny incisions hidden in the hairline. Even coronal approaches heal with virtually invisible scars.
Points Worth Noting
Professional evaluation ensures the right approach for your goals
Age, tissue quality, and individual healing shape outcomes
Recovery varies by individual — follow your surgeon's timeline
Follow all post-operative instructions carefully
