Brow Lift Long Island in Long Island, NY

Brow LiftYou might notice that your eyes look more tired than you feel or that your forehead feels heavier than it used to. Maybe friends ask if you’re upset when you’re not. These subtle changes can creep in as the brow begins to descend with age.

At Layliev Plastic Surgery in Long Island, NY, we offer brow lift surgery to restore the natural position of your brows, soften lines across your forehead, and bring new energy to your appearance, without changing who you are.

What Is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift, sometimes called a forehead lift, is a cosmetic procedure that raises the eyebrows and smooths the upper part of the face. As we age, the muscles and skin in this area begin to sag, causing heaviness over the eyes and deep lines that make you look stern, sad, or older than you feel. This procedure repositions the brows, lifts sagging skin, and restores balance to your facial features.

A brow lift opens the eye area and eases tension in the forehead, delivering a refreshed, naturally alert look that reflects how vibrant you feel.

Am I a Candidate for Brow Lift Surgery?

If your brows have started to droop or your forehead looks lined or heavy, you may be a strong candidate for this procedure. You should be in good health, free from active infections or certain medical conditions that may interfere with healing.

If you’ve had prior facial surgery, we’ll discuss how that may affect your results. The best candidates want to improve their look while still feeling like themselves.

What Happens During Brow Lift Surgery?

Every procedure starts with a personal consultation. Dr. Layliev listens to your goals, evaluates your facial structure, and explains what kind of brow lift delivers the most natural results. On the day of surgery, you’ll be under general anesthesia to keep you comfortable from start to finish.

Depending on your anatomy, Dr. Layliev may use an endoscopic approach with small incisions hidden behind the hairline or another technique based on the best outcome. He carefully lifts and repositions the muscles and tissues, smooths deep creases, and restores the brows to a youthful height. Surgery usually takes one to two hours.

What to Expect After Surgery

You’ll return home the same day with recovery instructions. Swelling and bruising are normal for the first several days, and you’ll start to feel more like yourself by the end of the first week. Most people return to light activity in about 7-10 days and feel comfortable returning to more active routines by week three or four.

Scars are discreet and typically hidden within the hairline or natural folds of the skin. As the healing continues, your brows will settle into a lifted, more natural position. Full results become visible within a few weeks and continue to refine as swelling fades.

Why People Choose a Brow Lift

People choose this procedure when they want to restore what time and gravity have taken away. A brow lift smooths deep forehead lines, lifts sagging brows, and helps the eyes appear more open and expressive. It doesn’t freeze your features—it frees them. You still look like you, just more awake, more confident, and more aligned with how you feel on the inside.

The change can be subtle but powerful. You may notice fewer questions like, “Are you tired?” and more compliments on how rested or refreshed you look.

What Does a Brow Lift Cost?

Costs vary depending on the approach used and the specific needs of your procedure. During your consultation, we’ll discuss all pricing details, including facility and anesthesia fees, and provide a custom quote.

We can also discuss payment plans and financing options to help make the process manageable.

You’ll have some swelling and bruising for the first several days. Most people feel well enough to return to work or social activities within a week to ten days. Complete healing continues over the next few weeks.
Dr. Layliev places incisions where they’re well concealed—typically in the hairline or natural creases of the forehead. As you heal, scars fade and become difficult to detect.
Initial improvements are visible within the first week or two. As the swelling continues to subside, your final results become more refined and natural over the following month.

  • “I would highly recommend Dr John Layliev and his staff”

    From the consultation, to surgery, to the post operative experience, it was seem less. What really stands out to me besides the fantastic results is how genuine Dr.Layliev is. I was so nervous prior to surgery I felt physically ill. Dr. Layliev stayed with me and held my hand until I drifted off to sleep. When I woke up he was right there reassuring me that everything went as planned. He is so much more then I gift surgeon, he is a down to earth nice guy that really cares about his patients! I would highly recommend Dr John Layliev and his staff.
