Brow Lift Financing Options

Do you feel that your facial appearance makes you look tired, angry, or older than you really are? If so, you may benefit from a brow lift. A brow lift or forehead lift is a surgical procedure in which the appearance of the brow line and forehead are improved through the elevating of droopy eyebrows and the relaxing of forehead wrinkles and creases between the brows. Brow lifts focus on the appearance of facial skin above the brow line, smoothing the effects of aging, gravity, and heredity.

Average cost of brow lift surgery

The average surgeons’ fee for a brow lift procedure is $3,900 according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). This price does not include fees for the anesthesia, surgical facility, or other related expenses. After taking these additional fees into consideration, the total cost of brow lift surgery ranges from $6,000 to $15,000. Before undergoing a brow lift, it is important to understand the various charges, as well as the factors influencing brow lift costs. If price is an issue for you, ask your surgeon about affordable financing options.

Brow lift surgery financing options

The following are some brow surgery financing and payment options to help make your treatment more affordable.

• Healthcare Financing Company: Many financing companies provide loans or credit specifically for cosmetic surgery procedures. They offer flexible repayment plans, often with low or no-interest options which makes it easier to manage the cost over time.
• Personal Credit Card: A personal credit card with a sufficient credit limit and a low-interest rate may be an option to consider for financing your brow lift procedure. However, it’s important to be mindful of the interest rates and the potential for accumulating high-interest debt.
• Personal Loans: Obtaining a personal loan from a bank, credit union, or online lender is another option to finance your brow lift procedure. Personal loans typically have fixed interest rates and repayment terms, allowing you to budget for the monthly payments. Compare rates and terms from multiple lenders to find the most favorable loan terms.
• Employer Assistance: Some employers offer employee benefits that include medical financing assistance or discounts for cosmetic procedures. Explore your employee benefits package or speak with your human resources department to find out if such options are available to you.
• Negotiate a Discount: In some cases, plastic surgeon’s offer discounts for paying in full upfront or provide promotional offers for new patients. Ask about any available discounts or flexible payment arrangements to help make your surgery more affordable.
• Payment Plans: Many cosmetic practices offer payment plans or financing options themselves to help patients manage the cost. With a payment plan, you can spread out the cost of brow lift surgery into manageable monthly payments. Speak with your plastic surgeon about any available in-house payment plans and discuss the terms and conditions that best suit your budget.
• Crowdfunding: Crowdfunding platforms provide an opportunity to raise funds from family, friends, and even strangers who believe in your goals. Create a compelling campaign that explains your desire for brow lift surgery and share it on social media or various crowdfunding websites.

The decision to finance your brow lift surgery should be made with careful consideration and with the help of a professional financial advisor. Before moving forward with any financing option, meet with a certified financial planner who can help advise you on the best option that aligns with your current financial situation and long-term goals.

Finding a brow lift surgeon

Besides the brow lift cost, it’s important to choose a plastic surgeon based on qualifications. When looking for a brow lift surgeon, make sure they are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) or other established association such as the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS). Although membership in any society or board-certification doesn’t guarantee a successful result most certifying boards like these require extensive medical training, experience, and rigorous surgical education which can ensure that the most appropriate techniques are used for your brow lift surgery while reducing the risk of complications.
