Aging brings about several changes to the face that can impact the appearance of the brow and contribute to the need or the desire for a browlift:
Loss of Skin Elasticity
Overtime skin will naturally lose elasticity which is a result in the decrease of the production of collagen and elasticity. Loss of elasticity leads to sagging and drooping in various areas of the face, including the brow region. As a result, the brows can appear lower and less defined and cause a tired, stern or even an angry expression.
Gravity
Gravity is a constant force on soft tissue which can result in brow tissues gradually descending over time. The degree of descent varies among individuals but is generally more pronounced in older age groups.
Repeated Muscle Contractions
Facial expressions cause facial muscles to repetitively contract. Expressons such as raising eyebrows or furrowing the forehead, can lead to the development of dynamic wrinkles and lines. As time goes by, wrinkles and lines can become more deeply etched into the skin, creating permanent furrows in the forehead area.
Fat and Tissue Redistribution
Fat tissue redistributes as we age, accumulating in areas that are undesirable. Fat accumulation can occur in the brow region leading to a heavy, drooping appearance. Conversely, fat loss in other areas may make the brow bones more prominent.
Bone Resorption
Bone density decreases with age which can impact facial bone structure. The loss of bone density can contribute to a lower brow position and a less defined upper face.
These physical changes as we age can affect the position and appearance of the brow, causing it to lose its youthful arch and contribute to the development of forehead wrinkles and lines. There are a range of treatments that can be chosen to help achieve a browlift.
