Brow lifts are designed to brighten the soft tissues around the eyes for a younger and more vibrant appearance.
This procedure is done by elevating and reshaping the eyebrows, diminishing excess skin in the upper eyelids and reducing deep folds in the forehead. By raising the brow, that tired or sad appearance is replaced with a rested, happier expression. This procedure can take 5 to 10 years off of your appearance.
Dr. Marc Malek, a board-certified plastic surgeon and one of the top providers of brow lifts in Scottsdale, works vigilantly to help patients achieve their cosmetic goals with natural, refined outcomes.
Dr. Sam DeVictor, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon with advanced fellowship training, complements this approach with specialized expertise in facial anatomy and surgical precision. His methods enhance harmony in the brow and forehead, offering patients innovative techniques that deliver natural, lasting rejuvenation.
Together, Dr. Malek and Dr. DeVictor provide comprehensive brow lift options that balance artistry and precision, helping patients look refreshed and confident.

Your eyebrows are one of the most expressive features on your face. Eyebrow motion adds inflection to the words you speak, and can underscore your other facial movements. Eyebrows signal your emotions, attention, confidence, happiness, and concentration – far more than most of us realize. When eyebrows have reached a lower position due to sagging facial skin, you may appear tired, angry, or unhappy. Lowered eyebrows can lead to premature furrows across the top of the nose, leading to a more aged facial appearance.
Our surgeons can help you stave off the obvious signs of aging and the drag of gravity by tightening the skin and tissue of the forehead to create a more youthful look to the upper face, upper eyelids, and eyebrow ridge. For the most aesthetic look, brows should be above your orbital rim with a lateral arch toward the outside corners of the eyes. For facial rejuvenation, a brow lift in Phoenix can give your face better balance and harmony and resolve one of the telltale signs of aging: a sagging brow. Dr. Marc Malek is a board-certified plastic surgeon in Scottsdale & Phoenix, and he is adept at determining what areas of the face need to be lifted or tightened in order to restore a youthful appearance. Working alongside him, Dr. Sam DeVictor, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon with advanced fellowship training, contributes specialized expertise in facial anatomy and rejuvenation. Together, they provide patients with comprehensive, natural-looking results that restore youthful balance and harmony.
A brow lift can revitalize and rejuvenate your entire face. This procedure can resolve the following eyebrow and forehead aesthetic issues:
- Sagging, drooping brows that give the upper face and eyes a hooded, sad appearance.
- Eyebrows that droop in the center, giving your face an angry appearance.
- Difficulties in applying makeup to the upper eyelid due to the weight of heavy tissue above.
- Deep horizontal creases on the forehead.
- “Concentration” lines between the eyebrows or at top of the nose.
- Visual impairment due to excess skin folds and/or fatty deposits.
- Flattened brow with no visible arch.
A brow lift can result in a stunning facial transformation and yet appear so natural that others will only notice that you appear youthful, alive, and friendly.
Only a highly experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon such as Dr. Marc Malek should be trusted to perform facial surgery—and a brow lift is no exception. Plastic surgery is both an art and a science, and the best results come from a surgeon who can restore a natural look while taking years off your appearance.

PATIENT EDUCATION
A board-certified plastic surgeon has dedicated an average of sixteen years to advanced medical education and training – just the first step in achieving board certification as a plastic surgeon. Once the entire education and residency are completed, to become certified requires a lengthy and comprehensive two-day oral and written examination to evaluate scope of knowledge and understanding, ethical standing, and the physician’s approach to patient health and safety.
Many other medical professionals offer cosmetic procedures, including MDs – who may market their practice as a “cosmetic surgery” practice, but have not undergone the extensive specialty training of a board certified plastic surgeon. If you are planning a cosmetic procedure, qualifications matter – in a big way. You want a result that you love, not a disaster that requires revision surgery. Dr. Malek, a board-certified plastic surgeon, is often called upon to repair poorly performed cosmetic surgeries. Always check for board certification as a plastic and reconstructive surgeon if you are planning a cosmetic procedure.
During training, a plastic surgeon is working full time, and spends about 3,000 hours of hands-on practice under the training and supervision of a senior, certified plastic surgeon who is overseeing all of their work. One indicator of lack of board certification as a plastic surgeon who offers a “cut-rate” deal, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. Another indicator is that the medical professional offering cosmetic services who is not a board certified plastic surgeon will not have hospital privileges – almost all hospitals require plastic surgery procedures that are performed at their facility to be board certified reconstructive and plastic surgeons. Board certification is only awarded by the American Board of Plastic Surgery – no other group or entity with a similar-sounding name.
Surgeons who have completed the required residency for plastic and reconstructive surgery have the experience, knowledge, and surgical techniques to perform the most complex surgical procedures, including: Facelifts, Nose jobs (rhinoplasty), Eyelid surgery, Brow lift, Body lift, Tummy tuck, Arm lift, Breast augmentation, Breast lift, Breast reduction, Breast revision, Breast reconstruction
Unfortunately, there are many medical “boards,” and an MD can present themselves as a “plastic surgeon,” but have not gone through the extensive education and training of an actual board-certified plastic surgeon. You have the right to know the certification of a medical professional who offers a surgical procedure – just ask.Many other medical professionals offer cosmetic procedures, including MDs – who may market their practice as a “cosmetic surgery” practice, but have not undergone the extensive specialty training of a board certified plastic surgeon.

For a better understanding of the certification of a physician, the basics are as follows:A licensed MD has been educated in some surgical techniques, but not even close to the extent of the training required to achieve board certification as a plastic surgeon.A board-certified cosmetic surgeon is significantly different than a board certified plastic surgeon. Certification from the American Board of Medical Specialties does not issue certificates for “cosmetic surgery.” However, an MD is not violating the law by calling him or herself a “cosmetic surgeon.” The question is, does he or she have the experience, knowledge, and advanced techniques that will produce an excellent result?
