Over time, the skin loses elasticity and becomes saggy. The area around the eyebrows is also affected, which can cause them to sag. The result: the face looks older, tired, sad or even grim. To counteract this impression, we offer two types of eyebrow lift at our practice in Stuttgart. Whether minimally invasive as a Botox injection or through a surgical procedure - with the professional brow lift, we correct the position of your eyebrows in Stuttgart and help you to achieve a more alert, fresher and younger appearance.

Who is an eyebrow lift in Stuttgart suitable for?

An eyebrow lift is suitable for anyone who is unhappy with the position of their eyebrows because it changes their facial expression unfavorably. Eyebrows that have drooped with age can make the face look tired, sad and even angry. An eyebrow lift is also suitable for people who have naturally asymmetrical eyebrows in order to even them out.

A brow lift may not be a suitable treatment for people with acute skin conditions in the treatment area or other health problems that increase the risk of complications. Let us advise you on this in a personal consultation with Dr. Schumacher in Stuttgart.

What methods of eyebrow lifting are there?

There are basically two types of eyebrow lift:

With the minimally invasive brow lift, botulinum toxin (Botox) is injected into certain muscles around the eyebrows to relax and lift them. No incisions are required and you can go about your normal daily business immediately after the treatment. However, the effect is only temporary and regular refresher treatments are required for a longer-lasting effect.

During a surgical eyebrow lift in Stuttgart, Dr. Schumacher makes small incisions, removes excess skin and sutures the remaining skin, which is then tightened and lifts the eyebrows. The results are usually permanent, although a longer recovery period is required before you are able to socialize and work again.

What should you consider before an eyebrow lift in Stuttgart?

You should not take any blood-thinning or anticoagulant medication for at least 2 weeks before your eyebrow lift in Stuttgart. Therefore, please inform us about any previous illnesses and regular medication intake during your consultation. Please also follow the relevant instructions, which may vary depending on the treatment.

How does a brow Lift with Botox work in Stuttgart?

Before every eyebrow lift, Dr. Schumacher will hold a consultation with you in Stuttgart in which he will inform you about the treatment procedure and any risks involved.

On the day of the brow lift, the area around the eyes is first cleaned and disinfected. Anesthesia is not usually required. However, local anesthesia is possible on request. Dr. Schumacher then uses fine needles to inject the botulinum toxin specifically into the relevant areas around the eyebrows. The treatment takes around 30 minutes in total, after which you can leave our practice in Stuttgart.

We recommend carefully cooling the treatment area to minimize swelling and bruising. Please ensure that you do not apply any pressure or massage the treated area for the next 1-2 days. Also refrain from sport and other physically strenuous activities during this time.

How does an eyebrow lift in Stuttgart (surgical) work?

Before your eyebrow lift surgery in Stuttgart, you will receive all the important information about the procedure in a personal consultation with Dr. Schumacher and find out what you need to pay attention to before and after.

The surgical eyebrow lift takes place in Stuttgart under local or general anesthesia. As soon as this takes effect, incisions are made in the appropriate places. Depending on the surgical technique, these are located along or behind the hairline, in the temple region or directly above the eyebrows. The tissue is then lifted, excess skin is removed and the incision is then closed with fine sutures. The brow lift in Stuttgart takes around 2-3 hours.

Allow yourself and your body to rest for a few days afterwards. Cool the treatment area carefully. Keep your head elevated if possible, even when sleeping. Avoid strenuous activities and sport for at least 2-3 weeks.

Are there any risks with a brow lift?

Performed professionally, a brow lift with Botox is an extremely low-risk procedure. There may be slight swelling, redness or minor bruising, but these will subside on their own after a short time. There are general surgical risks associated with a surgical eyebrow lift, such as post-operative bleeding, infections or wound healing disorders. These risks can be minimized by adhering to high hygiene and quality standards, which are a matter of course in our practice in Stuttgart.

How much does an eyebrow lift cost in Stuttgart?

The cost of an eyebrow lift in Stuttgart depends on the type of lift and the amount of treatment required. This can vary from person to person, which is why the costs can also vary. Of course, after a preliminary examination and a detailed consultation in Stuttgart, you will receive an individual treatment plan that also includes all the costs involved.

Frequently asked questions about eyebrow lifting in Stuttgart

When can you see the results of an eyebrow lift?

With a Brow Lift with Botox in Stuttgart, the first changes are visible after 3-5 days. It takes around 1-2 weeks for the effect to fully develop. With a surgical eyebrow lift in Stuttgart, the results are visible immediately or after the swelling has subsided, which can take up to 2-3 weeks.

Do visible scars remain after an eyebrow lift?

A minimally invasive brow lift with Botox usually leaves no scars. Even with a surgical eyebrow lift, the scars are barely visible later as they are inconspicuous (usually in the area of the scalp hair).

When can you return to work after an eyebrow lift?

After an eyebrow lift with Botox, you are immediately fit for social life and work again. Sport is possible again after 1-2 days. After a surgical eyebrow lift, you should allow for a downtime of approx. 1 week, or 2 weeks for physically strenuous activities. You should also refrain from sport for at least 2-3 weeks.

Does a brow lift last?

This depends on the type of lift: a Botox Brow Lift lasts approx. 3-6 months. However, the effect can be maintained for longer with regular repetitions. The result of a surgical eyebrow lift is usually permanent, but may change slightly over time as the skin ages.
