Brow Lift During GLP-1: 5 Consultation Questions

Considering brow surgery during GLP-1 treatment? Bring these five questions to the consultation.

1. Which area needs assessment?

A brow lift addresses the forehead and eyebrows, not baggy eyelids. Ask the surgeon to distinguish those areas during examination. [1]

2. Where would incisions sit?

An open lift uses a longer scalp incision; an endoscopic lift uses smaller scalp incisions. Ask which approach fits your anatomy. [1]

3. What could affect hair and expression?

ASPS lists elevated hairline, hair loss around incisions, asymmetry, nerve injury, persistent pain and unfavorable scarring among possible risks. Discuss these before consent, including whether revision might be needed. [2]

4. Who sets medication instructions?

For general anesthesia or deep sedation, tell the team about GLP-1 treatment, dose increases and digestive symptoms. Most patients can continue treatment, but the anesthesiologist, surgeon and prescriber should individualize medication and fasting instructions. [3]

5. Which symptoms need a call?

Get written recovery instructions. Cleveland Clinic advises immediate contact with the provider for visual changes, severe pain or surgical-site bleeding. [1]
