About This Procedure

How Brow Lift Surgery Works

Brow lift surgery repositions the underlying muscles and tissues of the forehead, lifting the brow to a more youthful position. Over time, gravity, sun exposure, and natural aging cause the brow to descend, creating deep forehead furrows, frown lines, and a heavy, tired look to the upper face — even when you feel energetic and refreshed.

At IRIS Aesthetics in Longmont, CO, Dr. Adrianna Jensen brings her oculoplastic expertise to every brow lift procedure. As a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon with 30+ years of experience, she has an unparalleled understanding of the periorbital anatomy — the delicate interplay between the brow, forehead, and upper eyelid. This subspecialty expertise ensures natural results that open the eyes and soften the entire upper face, without the “surprised” look that concerns many patients.

Whether your drooping brow is purely cosmetic or contributes to functional issues with your upper eyelids, Dr. Jensen will design a surgical plan tailored to your unique anatomy and aesthetic goals. Her approach delivers a refreshed, harmonious result that looks entirely natural.

The Upper Face Specialist

Dr. Adrianna Jensen

Board-Certified Oculoplastic Surgeon · 30+ Years · Hospital Privileges

Brow lift surgery demands an intimate understanding of the relationship between the forehead, brow, and upper eyelid — and no surgical specialist understands this relationship better than an oculoplastic surgeon. Dr. Jensen completed her ophthalmology residency followed by a competitive fellowship in oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery, a subspecialty devoted entirely to the eyelids, brow, orbit, and surrounding facial structures.

This means Dr. Jensen has a deeper anatomical understanding of the periorbital region than virtually any other type of surgeon. Her 30+ years of experience, ABMS board certification, and active hospital privileges reflect a career built on precision, safety, and natural aesthetic outcomes. She has performed countless brow lift procedures, often in combination with blepharoplasty, making her one of the most experienced upper face surgeons in Northern Colorado and the entire Front Range.

When you choose a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon for your brow lift, you are choosing the only surgical specialist whose advanced training is focused on the very structures you are entrusting them to elevate and rejuvenate. That distinction matters.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

About brow lift surgery in Longmont, CO

Botox temporarily relaxes the muscles that pull the brow downward, providing a subtle lift that lasts 3–4 months. A brow lift surgically repositions the underlying tissues and muscles for a permanent structural correction that lasts 10–15 years. If Botox no longer provides adequate lift, or if you have significant skin excess and brow drooping, a surgical brow lift delivers results that injectables simply cannot achieve.
Most patients take 2–3 weeks off work after brow lift surgery. Swelling and bruising are most noticeable during the first week, with bruising often migrating down to the eyelids before resolving within 2–3 weeks. Temporary numbness of the forehead is normal and gradually resolves. Sutures or staples are removed at 7–10 days. Most patients feel comfortable returning to social activities within 2–3 weeks. Final results settle beautifully over 3–6 months.
With the endoscopic technique, small incisions are hidden behind the hairline and are virtually undetectable once healed. The direct brow lift places an incision just above the eyebrow, which fades significantly over time and is typically concealed within the natural brow crease. Dr. Jensen’s oculoplastic training emphasizes meticulous closure techniques that minimize scarring with either approach.
Yes, brow lift and upper blepharoplasty are one of the most commonly combined procedures in facial rejuvenation. A drooping brow often contributes to upper eyelid hooding, so addressing both in a single session provides the most comprehensive and harmonious result. Dr. Jensen frequently performs this combination, and the shared recovery period means one downtime for two transformative improvements.
Brow lift results typically last 10–15 years. While the natural aging process continues after surgery, the brow will always remain higher than it would have been without the procedure. Many patients find that a single brow lift provides lasting satisfaction well into their later years without needing a revision.
There is no strict age requirement. Brow lift candidates are typically in their 40s to 60s, though younger patients with naturally low brow positions or older patients in good health may also benefit. The key factors are the degree of brow drooping, your aesthetic goals, and your overall health — not your age alone. Dr. Jensen evaluates each patient individually during consultation.
A common concern, but an experienced surgeon avoids this entirely. Dr. Jensen’s oculoplastic training gives her an expert understanding of periorbital anatomy and ideal brow positioning. She lifts the brow to a natural, refreshed position — not an unnaturally elevated one. The goal is to look like a rested, rejuvenated version of yourself, never “overdone” or startled.
Brow lift surgery is generally considered cosmetic and is not covered by insurance. However, in rare cases where severe brow ptosis contributes to documented visual field obstruction, partial coverage may be possible. During your consultation, Dr. Jensen will evaluate your situation and help you understand your options, including financing plans available through IRIS Aesthetics.
