Question:

I'm a 45 year old man interested in a forehead lift. I have a rather unusual issue: I sleep on my stomach, and I'm wondering what effect a forehead lift would have on my sleep. Would sleeping on my stomach be painful after a brow lift?

Answer:

Many people either sleep on their side or lie flat on their abdomen. After a brow lift procedure, I ask my patients to try their best to keep their head elevated to reduce swelling. It can be a bit difficult trying to sleep with your head elevated. I will sometimes prescribe a sleep aid to help my patients get better rest. I do not recommend sleeping on your stomach after brow lift.
