Forehead & Brow Lift in Beverly Hills & Greater Los Angeles
A sagging brow or deep forehead creases can make you appear older, tired, or less approachable than you feel. In Southern California, where consistent sun exposure, stress, and an active lifestyle can contribute to visible aging, a brow lift can be a meaningful way to restore a more rested, open appearance. In his Beverly Hills practice, Dr. Kami Parsa offers advanced, patient-centered care with a focus on brow and forehead results that look natural and refined.
Brow position is closely tied to how the upper eyelids look and function, and it is an area Dr. Parsa has taught extensively. He has lectured nationally and internationally on “The Minimal-Incision Brow Lift” and applied periocular anatomy, including for The Aesthetic Society and the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. He is a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the Los Angeles Ophthalmology Society, and the USC Plastic Surgery Society, and he serves as an Adjunct Clinical Professor at the Keck School of Medicine of USC. His more than 20 years of experience follow fellowship training in oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. Learn more on his credentials page.
“Many patients who come in asking about eyelid surgery actually have a brow that has descended. When the brow is the real cause, lifting it first can give a more natural result with less surgery on the eyelids.” — Dr. Kami Parsa
Understanding Brow and Forehead Aging
Residents of Beverly Hills and neighboring communities face a familiar set of factors that affect facial aging. Ultraviolet exposure, stress, repetitive facial expressions, and the natural loss of skin elasticity all play a role in how quickly the brow descends and forehead lines deepen.
Patients often seek a brow lift to reduce heaviness over the eyes, soften deep furrows between the brows, and restore a youthful, energized appearance that matches how they feel. In some cases, a low brow also contributes to hooding of the upper eyelids, which is why Dr. Parsa evaluates the brow and eyelids together.

Brow Lift Procedures Offered in Beverly Hills
Endoscopic Brow Lift
This minimally invasive method uses small incisions hidden behind the hairline to lift the brow and smooth forehead lines. It is often well suited to patients in their 40s to 60s who want a noticeable but subtle improvement.
Pretrichial Brow Lift
This option is often recommended for patients with a high forehead. The incision is placed at the hairline, allowing skin removal and brow elevation without moving the hairline higher.
Coronal Brow Lift
A traditional technique used for more significant brow descent, the coronal lift allows for extensive elevation and smoothing but involves a longer incision across the scalp.
Trans-Bleph Endotine™ & Browpexy
These limited-incision approaches are often performed during upper eyelid surgery. They provide a modest lift and are appropriate for patients with mild brow descent.
Direct Brow Lift
In this approach, skin is removed directly above the brow for targeted correction without involving the forehead. It is best for select patients with significant drooping who understand and accept the tradeoff of a scar near the brow.
Non-Surgical Brow Options
For patients who are not ready for surgery, Dr. Parsa offers BOTOX®, Restylane®, autologous fat transfer, and other injectables to soften lines and create a subtle lift. These options can be a good fit for younger patients or those seeking temporary enhancement, and a non-surgical eyelid lift may also be discussed.
Brow Lift Anesthesia and Recovery in Beverly Hills
Most brow lift procedures are performed under Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC). This approach offers:
- No breathing tube
- A generally shorter recovery
- A lower likelihood of nausea after surgery
- Enhanced comfort during the procedure
Recovery varies by technique, but many patients return to work within 7 to 10 days. You will receive detailed aftercare instructions, and the team is available to answer questions throughout your recovery. Most visible signs of surgery fade within about three weeks, and camouflage makeup can be used once Dr. Parsa clears you to do so.
Why Choose Dr. Kami Parsa for a Brow Lift in Beverly Hills
Because Dr. Parsa’s practice is limited to the eyelids, brows, and surrounding facial structures, he approaches the brow as part of the complete upper face.
- Brow and Eyelid Evaluated Together: Dr. Parsa determines whether heaviness comes from the brow, the eyelid, or both, so you receive the procedure that addresses the true cause.
- A Full Range of Techniques: From limited-incision browpexy to endoscopic and pretrichial lifts, your approach is matched to your forehead height, hairline, and degree of descent.
- Willingness to Recommend Less: Patients value that Dr. Parsa will suggest a simpler procedure when it is the better choice, rather than a more extensive one.
- Natural Brow Shape: Brow height and arch are planned to avoid a surprised or overdone look, preserving your natural expression.
- A Surgeon Who Gives Back: As founder of the Surgical Friends Foundation, Dr. Parsa has traveled internationally to provide reconstructive surgery to patients without access to quality medical care.
