There is absolutely no doubt about the fact that we do not like to see wrinkles on our face as we get older. They are a reminder that time has gone by and there is no way to turn back the clock. Some individuals are genetically predisposed to get wrinkles earlier than others. There are a lot of environmental factors that can cause a person to get wrinkles, like spending time in the sun unprotected. Other things that can cause a person to get wrinkles are the loss of facial volume and the fact that as you contract your muscles time and again as you get older, the muscles will stay contracted, causing dynamic wrinkles.

Thankfully, there are a variety of treatments that can be used to help you when you’re dealing with wrinkles, no matter if they are static or dynamic wrinkles. One way to treat horizontal wrinkles in your forehead is to get a brow lift.

The first thing that you may want to know is if you are a good candidate for a brow lift. The first requirement is that you are in good health. Besides having a serious health condition, there are very few things that would disqualify you as a good candidate for a brow lift.

Another thing that you should know is that you can have a brow lift performed at the same time as another cosmetic procedure. It is not uncommon for an individual to have a brow lift performed at the same time as an eyelid lift. This is going to treat the horizontal wrinkles on your forehead as well as the sagging skin around or under your eyes. This will give you a refreshed and more vibrant look.

Many individuals wonder if they are too young to get this procedure. It is good to know that there is no lower age limit when it comes to getting a brow lift. If you are experiencing horizontal lines because of heredity, a brow lift may be just what is needed to help you look your best and look your true age.

Even though most individuals have a brow lift performed for cosmetic reasons, there are some individuals who benefit physically because of a brow lift. For example, when a person has saggy eyebrows and excess skin around their eyes, they may experience problems with their vision. So when a person has an eyelid lift and a brow lift, their vision will improve. They will no longer have that obstruction of excess skin blocking their sight.
