Endless video calls have made us more aware of our own reflections than ever before. With upward camera angles and harsh lighting, even subtle changes in the forehead and brow can create the impression of fatigue, sternness, or age. This heightened awareness has led to a rise in interest for Brow Lifts, an advanced surgical procedure that refreshes the upper face. At Sunder Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, Dr. Sarmela Sunder, a double-board certified facial plastic surgeon, has seen this trend firsthand. Here’s why brow lifts are gaining momentum in today’s remote work era.
Why Zoom Calls Spark Brow Lift Interest
Spending hours on screen magnifies every crease, frown line, and shadow across the forehead. Even a slight droop of the brows can weigh down the eyes, making you appear more tired or stressed than you feel. A Brow Lift addresses these concerns by gently lifting the brows and smoothing forehead lines, restoring an approachable, energized appearance that translates well on and off camera.
What a Brow Lift Can Do for You
This procedure offers more than wrinkle reduction. A Brow Lift can:
- Refresh the eyes: Opens the upper eyelid area, reducing hooding and brightening expression.
- Smooth deep creases: Softens forehead lines and frown lines between the brows.
- Restore balance: Aligns uneven brows for improved facial harmony.
- Deliver long-lasting change: Results often last a decade or more.
- Enhance presence: Patients frequently note that their outward appearance better matches their energy and vitality.
Modern Techniques for Natural Results
While traditional Brow Lifts required long incisions, modern approaches are far less invasive. Dr. Sunder often performs endoscopic brow lifts, which use small incisions hidden in the hairline. Temporary fixation devices called Endotine may be used to secure tissues during healing and dissolve naturally over time. For patients seeking a subtle lift, especially at the outer brow, she may recommend a temporal lift, which can also be combined with eyelid surgery for a comprehensive yet natural rejuvenation.
Tailored Approaches for Men and Women
Brow Lifts are increasingly sought by both women and men. For men, Dr. Sunder customizes the procedure to preserve masculine traits, maintaining a flatter brow shape and avoiding an overly smooth forehead. For women, the focus may include gentle arching and balance with the eyes, guided by Dr. Sunder’s unique perspective as a female surgeon who deeply understands the nuances of feminine beauty. In all cases, her goal is subtle refinement that complements each patient’s natural features.
What to Expect After a Brow Lift
Most patients return home the same day, with swelling peaking in the first week and improving steadily thereafter. Discomfort is generally mild and well-managed with prescribed medication. Most people resume professional and social activities within about two weeks. As tissues settle over the following months, the final results emerge, lasting well over ten years for many patients.
