subtle lift, striking results

Refresh Your Expression with Expert Brow Lift Surgery
As we age, the forehead and eyebrows can begin to sag, creating a tired, sad, or even angry appearance. A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, repositions the brows to a more youthful and natural position, smoothing forehead wrinkles and opening up the eyes for a refreshed and rejuvenated look.
At her Brentwood office, serving the greater Nashville area,
Dr. Ashley Guthrie, a fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon, brings her expertise to delivering natural-looking brow lift results that are never tight or overdone.
What is A BROW LIFT?
A brow lift is a surgical procedure that elevates the brows and smooths horizontal forehead lines, frown lines between the brows (glabellar lines), and sagging skin above the eyes. By repositioning the brow, Dr. Guthrie restores a more alert, youthful, and balanced appearance, ensuring a natural look that complements your facial features.
Depending on your anatomy and goals, Dr. Guthrie may recommend one of several brow lift techniques, such as:
- Endoscopic Brow Lift: This procedure involves a minimally invasive approach using tiny incisions and a surgical camera.
- Lateral (Temporal) Brow Lift: This procedure lifts the outer third of the brow, providing a subtle and natural enhancement.
- Trichophytic (Hairline) Brow Lift:This technique is ideal for patients with a high forehead or hairline. The incision is made just at or slightly behind the hairline, allowing the forehead to be shortened while lifting the brow. It offers natural results with minimal visible scarring and avoids the complications associated with traditional coronal lifts.

What to Expect During Your Brow Lift Journey
1. Consultation:
Dr. Guthrie will evaluate your forehead, brow position, and eye area, and listen carefully to your concerns and goals. Together, you’ll determine which brow lift technique is best for you.
2. Surgery:
A browlift procedure is typically performed under sedation or general anesthesia as an outpatient. Most procedures take approximately 1 to 2 hours.

Dr. Guthrie and her team will provide you with detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery process.
Final results continue to improve over the next few months, revealing a refreshed and more youthful appearance.

Frequently asked Questions
BROW LIFT Faqs
How long do brow lift results last?
Brow lift results are long-lasting, typically lasting 10 years or more. While no surgery can stop the aging process, most patients enjoy a naturally refreshed look for many years.
Will a brow lift make me look surprised?
No. Dr. Guthrie uses advanced, conservative techniques to ensure the results are natural and balanced, avoiding the “overdone” or “surprised” look. Her goal is to lift the brows in a way that complements your facial features and enhances your natural beauty.
Is a brow lift painful?
Discomfort after surgery is usually minimal and easily managed with medication. Most patients describe their recovery as mild, with swelling and tightness rather than significant pain.
How much does a brow lift cost?
Because every brow lift is customized, pricing can vary based on the technique used and whether additional procedures are performed. We recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with Dr. Guthrie to receive an accurate quote tailored to your needs.
How do I know if I need a brow lift or eyelid surgery?
Sometimes drooping brows can make it seem like you have excess eyelid skin when the issue is actually the brow position. During your consultation, Dr. Guthrie will carefully assess whether a brow lift, eyelid surgery, or a combination would best achieve your goals.
