Brow Lift in Chicago Cost
In Chicago, brow lift prices can range from $5,000 to $10,000 but can be as high as $15,000. This wide range of costs is due to multiple factors that are considered in the final price. In addition, each procedure is individualized to the patient’s needs and desires and can fluctuate significantly between patients.
What is Included in the Eyebrow Lift in Chicago Cost?
The total price of the surgery will include any anesthesia and facility fees necessary for completing the procedure. In addition, the surgeon’s fee, cost of support care, and any bandages or medications provided will need to be factored into the overall price.
Once a surgical plan is determined, Dr. Casas will provide you with a detailed summary of all the costs included in the procedure and follow-up appointments. This upfront pricing allows you to understand the level of investment needed and reduce the financial stresses of the procedure.
Factors Determining the Cost of Brow Lift Procedures
The overall costs of an eyebrow lift depend on the type and extent of the procedure performed, geographic location, surgeon experience, and fees associated with surgical assistants and support staff.
Type and Extent of Browlift
Depending on the techniques used to perform the browlift, the cost of the surgical procedure can vary. The two techniques include:
- Standard browlift procedure: This technique uses an incision along the hairline extending from ear to ear to address the goals of the eyebrow lift.
- Minimally invasive procedure: This technique uses multiple incisions (3–5) and an endoscope to complete the eyebrow lift.
Depending on which technique is performed, the overall cost of the procedure can differ. The need for additional procedures will also add to the overall cost of the procedure.
Geographic Location
The demand for eyebrow lift procedures in large cities, like Chicago will typically result in a higher cost for the procedure. Additionally, the higher cost of living in Chicago often translates into an overall higher cost of surgical procedures.
Surgeon’s Experience
Plastic surgeons with more experience are in higher demand and will often have higher prices. Their expertise in eyebrow treatments is a result of significant training and money being spent on current techniques. While this does increase the cost of the surgery, it significantly improves the results of the procedure and your satisfaction. Spending a little more upfront on a more experienced surgeon can pay dividends if it prevents a complication or need for additional surgery.
Reading reviews and looking at before and after (post-operative) photos can help provide an example of the quality of work the surgeon provides without even stepping foot in the office. Within the medical community, Dr. Casas is considered one of the best brow lift surgeons in Chicago and is known for providing individualized, patient-centered care.
Surgical and Support Staff Fees
Eyebrow lift procedures are performed in certified operating rooms and require various support staff such as nurses and assistants to ensure each procedure runs smoothly. These fees also include any medications/anesthesia needed during the procedure. These fees will be factored into the cost of the brow lift.
Does Insurance Cover Brow Lift Procedures?
Insurance companies classify standard and minimally invasive brow lifts as cosmetic procedures and thus do not cover these procedures. However, during the initial consultation, a detailed summary of the cost of the procedure is discussed. This provides you with the financial commitment needed to have this procedure performed.
Are Financing Options Available?
Yes. Casas Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is committed to ensuring every patient has access to surgical procedures that can transform their appearance and enhance their self-esteem. Dr. Casas’ office provides various financing options that can assist in paying for the procedure over time. However, it is important for you to make sure this procedure makes financial sense for your situation.
Am I a Good Candidate For a Brow Lift?
The brow line begins to sag around 40 years of age, resulting in most brow lift candidates being 40 and over. However, there is no gold age to have a brow lift procedure, with the ideal time being when you have decided it is right for you.
Men and women who are in good physical and mental health and unhappy with the position of their brows are good candidates for this eyebrow surgery. Candidates may also wish to improve deep lines within the forehead, heavy sagging eyelids, and/or a tired/older appearance of the face. Ideal candidates should also be non-smokers and have realistic expectations for the procedure.
What Are The Benefits of a Brow Lift?
An eyebrow lift can reverse the signs of aging by improving wrinkles around the eyes and sagging of the eyebrows. Other benefits of a brow lift include:
- Restoration of the natural position and arch of the eyebrow
- Improved forehead appearance by reducing wrinkles
- Reduced appearance of crow’s feet
- Removal of excess skin from the forehead
