How do I know if a brow lift is right for me?

If you notice sagging brows, deep forehead lines, or a tired expression that doesn't match how you feel, a brow lift may be a great option. Dr. Humenansky will help you determine the best treatment for your goals.

Will my results look natural or overly tight?

Our philosophy is focused on subtle, refreshed results. Dr. Humenansky uses techniques that lift and rejuvenate without creating a 'surprised' or artificial look.

How long is the recovery after a brow lift?

Most patients experience mild swelling and bruising for about 7 to 14 days. Discomfort is minimal and most daily activities can be resumed within a week, with full results visible over several weeks.

Are brow lifts performed in-office or at a surgery center?

Many brow lifts can be safely performed in our Chapin office under local anesthesia or sedation. For more extensive cases, a surgical center may be recommended. We'll discuss what's best for your needs.

Can a brow lift be combined with other facial procedures?

Yes. Patients often combine brow lifting with eyelid surgery or non-surgical treatments like neuromodulators and fillers for a comprehensive, harmonious result.

Does insurance cover this procedure?

Brow lifts are usually considered elective and are not covered by insurance. We provide transparent investment information and discuss financing options at your consultation.

What is the consultation fee and how is it applied?

A $100 consultation fee applies, which is credited toward your surgical procedure if you proceed. It cannot be applied toward injectables or skincare products.

Brow Lift | Carolina Face & Body

The brow and forehead are among the first areas to show signs of aging, often leading to a tired, heavy, or stern appearance. At Carolina Face & Body, our approach to brow lifting is rooted in the philosophy of 'restoration over makeover.' Directed by Dr. Kayla Humenansky, the only private practice female plastic surgeon in the Midlands, each procedure is meticulously designed to restore your natural contours without erasing your unique expressions. Our brow lift technique carefully repositions sagging brow tissue, smooths forehead lines, and opens the eye area, resulting in a refreshed and approachable look. We understand the importance of subtlety—our goal is never to make you look 'done,' but to help you feel more like yourself. Whether your concerns stem from genetics, the natural aging process, or changes after significant life milestones, our brow procedures honor your journey and enhance your confidence. With a focus on anatomical precision and clinical safety, you can trust your results will look organic, not artificial.

Choosing where to have your brow lift is as important as the procedure itself. At Carolina Face & Body, your care is led by Dr. Humenansky, a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon whose expertise ensures both artistry and safety. Our all-female clinical team, including a certified registered nurse anesthetist, creates a judgment-free environment where your concerns are heard and your goals respected. Unlike high-volume medspas, we deliver a tailored experience, blending advanced surgical methods with holistic patient wellness. Our Chapin clinic location is equipped for both in-office and surgical center procedures, ensuring privacy and comfort throughout your journey. As a practice deeply invested in lifelong patient relationships, we emphasize education and transparent communication at every step. From your initial consult to post-operative care, our focus is on achieving natural, long-lasting results that leave you feeling empowered—never overdone. For many in Chapin, Lexington, Columbia, and the Midlands, our practice has become synonymous with exceptional outcomes and genuine care.

A brow lift at Carolina Face & Body addresses the telltale signs of aging that can lead to a 'muffled' or 'heavy' upper face. Using advanced techniques—tailored to your anatomy and desired level of lift—Dr. Humenansky repositions the brow and smooths the forehead, softening frown lines and restoring youthful balance to the face. Incisions are carefully concealed within the hairline or natural creases, minimizing visible scars. For the right candidate, the procedure can be performed in-office under local anesthesia or with sedation, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience. Every treatment plan is customized: some patients benefit from a full brow lift, while others may require a limited or lateral lift for subtle enhancement. Our holistic model incorporates post-surgical wellness, including physical therapy and medical-grade skincare, to optimize healing and maintain your investment in yourself. The result is a harmonious, rested look that feels authentic—reflecting your inner vitality without freezing your natural expressions.

Your experience begins with a comprehensive consultation at our Chapin location, where Dr. Humenansky listens to your goals and performs a detailed facial analysis. We prioritize honest, individualized recommendations—never a one-size-fits-all approach. If a brow lift is right for you, we guide you through every step, from preoperative preparation to post-procedure care. Most patients return home the same day, with clear instructions and close follow-up to ensure optimal healing. Swelling and bruising are expected but typically resolve within 1 to 2 weeks, revealing a refreshed, uplifted appearance. Our team remains accessible throughout your recovery—providing support, answering questions, and offering adjunct services such as medical-grade skincare or wellness therapies as desired. At Carolina Face & Body, your journey doesn't end with surgery; we partner with you for lifelong confidence, helping you maintain and celebrate your restored look for years to come.

Restoration without exaggeration — naturally refreshed, always you.
