Brow Lift in Fredericksburg, VA
What is a Brow Lift?
Surgery to lift the brow (also called a forehead lift or browplasty) is a popular aesthetic treatment that helps create a higher brow appearance, which provides a refreshed look to the upper portion of the face. A sagging brow can often create a tired or angry appearance. A brow lift surgically corrects a drooping brow to give patients a rejuvenated face by removing excess skin from the forehead while raising the eyebrows. Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki are plastic surgeons in Fredericksburg, VA who have completed brow lift surgery on both women and men to give them a younger appearance. Wrinkle fillers and relaxers are frequently performed in conjunction with a forehead lift at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg for ideal results, producing a softer and smoother appearance.
How Is a Brow Lift Performed?
Prior to surgery, anesthesia will be administered. This may be done under anesthesia on the extent of the procedure. The incision used during a browplasty is determined, depending on the degree of skin sag, whether the forehead is addressed, and the appearance of the patient's hairline. Some of the different techniques to consider:
- Traditional Incision
Also known as the open lift incision, this places the surgical incision at the top of the head behind the hairline. This incision not only masks scarring but also provides a certain amount of lift control during the surgery. The traditional incision suits those with both a sagging brow and frown lines. The traditional brow lift is the preferred technique for patients at risk of a receding hairline. - Trichophytic Incision
The trichophytic incision is placed right along the hairline. A trichophytic incision permits a more dramatic lift in the brow for men and women who have a low risk for hairline recession. - Lateral Brow Lift
Also known as a temporal brow lift, the lateral method places the incision inside the hairline slightly above the temples. The lateral incision allows the outer sections of the brow to be treated and is best for sagging that is visible in the outer brow. A temporal brow lift also helps to correct Crow’s feet. - Endoscopic Forehead Lift
The endoscopic lift is a more modern method used in a brow lift. It makes multiple small incisions in the hairline and inserts a tool known as an endoscope, which moves to the eyebrow to release its attachments. Using the endoscope's camera, the brow tissue is repositioned with stitches to lift the brow to a better position.

Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg Reviews
Amazing results - I look better than I ever have in my life - Dr Aflaki is a magician. I am so happy with my results . I was back to work in 2 weeks after TT and arm lift. Zero pain after 2 days. The scars are almost gone. I look better than i ever have in my life!
I had my breast augmentation back in May 2024. I am so happy with Dr. Aflaki and the work that he has done. I am close to 4 months post op and am absolutely in love with them. I was so scared to get it done because of all the horror stories I have heard from peers of them getting this procedure done at other places. But this is something I have always dreamed of and when I came in for my consultation I was greeted so warmly from the front desk ladies and the nurse that attended me that day Nurse Jamie was so reassuring and nice. After meeting the Dr I realized that this is an office I could trust. The healing process was smooth, I understand every case is different. For me I wasn't continuously bleeding as I heard that is something a lot of people go through. If I were to do it again I would.
My wife had a procedure done over a decade ago that she has been very happy with. As well, we really appreciated the demeanor and the way the doctor works, no pressure, no false promises. She just had a procedure done about a week ago that was significantly more invasive than her first one. We drove back to Fredericksburg from New England because of the trust and relationship that had developed with Dr. Batista's practice. She had many options in New England but the relationships were not there and the demeanor of the practices were far more aggressive in pushing products. She has a healing process ahead but I think she will be very pleased with the outcome and I'm sure we will return if she wants any other procedures.
Dr. Bautista is incredibly knowledgeable and took time to answer all my questions. The overall experience exceeded my expectations and I'm extremely happy with the results. I should have come years ago! Less cost than I anticipated. Treated like a Queen! Highly recommended. Will come again.
If you are looking for a surgeon to trust with your aesthetic surgery, Dr. Bautista is a great choice! Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg is worth looking into for anyone in the Fredericksburg, Richmond, or Northern VA area. Dr. Bautista is a kind, professional, and honest surgeon who is straightforward and very good at what he does. Dr. Bautista ensured that I felt confident in the plan and fully understood the risks and benefits of the procedure. I work in healthcare so I had lots of questions related to my procedure and he (and his staff) took the time to make sure to answer all of my questions and accommodate extra appointments. The costs were fair and straightforward and there were no "hidden fees".
