A furrowed brow and horizontal forehead wrinkles can create the impression that you’re always upset or exhausted even when you feel rested and content. Double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Keith Ladner specializes exclusively in facial and neck procedures, using advanced Deep Plane Endoscopic Brow Lift techniques to elevate and smooth the brow naturally. This approach provides long-lasting rejuvenation for patients in Denver, Colorado, and Beverly Hills, California, restoring a refreshed, youthful expression without the “pulled” look associated with traditional methods.
Keep in mind that each patient is unique and your results may vary.
Who Are Good Candidates for a Brow Lift?
If you’re often asked if something’s bothering you even when you feel fine, your appearance may be sending a misleading message. Women and men who believe forehead wrinkles and vertical “worry lines” between the eyes make them look exhausted, angry, or upset can benefit from brow lift surgery.
Good candidates for the procedure are usually concerned about:
- Sagging brows that create a grumpy appearance
- Deep horizontal creases across the forehead
- Frown lines or furrows between the eyebrows or across the top of the nose
- Excess skin or fatty tissue hanging over the eyes
Can a Brow Lift Be Combined With Other Procedures?
In some cases, Dr. Ladner may recommend combining a brow lift with other facial rejuvenation procedures for enhanced results. Options often include:
- Eyelid surgery
- Facelift
- Dermal fillers
- Laser skin resurfacing

How Is a Brow Lift Performed?
As a facial plastic surgery specialist, Dr. Ladner has extensive training in multiple brow lift techniques, but most often performs what he refers to as a Deep Plane Endoscopic Brow Lift.
This approach uses small incisions placed discreetly at the fronto-temporal hairline—rather than higher up as in traditional endoscopic brow lifts—to ensure the hairline remains in its natural position and the forehead is not elongated. Through these small openings, Dr. Ladner can directly address both the skin and underlying muscle layers, creating smoother, longer-lasting results.
By tightening the deeper facial planes, removing mild excess skin, and improving eyebrow symmetry, this method delivers a lifted yet natural look with minimal scarring. Patients appreciate that the results often last significantly longer than those from standard endoscopic approaches, while maintaining soft, balanced expressions.
What To Expect During Recovery From a Brow Lift
The downtime following an endoscopic brow lift is minimal, with most patients returning to work or normal daily activities within a week. Mild swelling or tightness is expected during the first couple of weeks. Because Dr. Ladner’s deep plane approach precisely lifts and repositions tissues with minimal trauma, recovery tends to be smoother and downtime shorter than traditional forehead lift techniques.
Patients return to the office within 10 days to have sutures removed and can typically resume full activity after two to three weeks.
