Brow Lift: Open Your Eyes and Refresh Your Expression

A brow lift (forehead lift) is a surgical procedure that elevates the eyebrows to a more youthful position, smooths forehead wrinkles, and opens up the upper face. Drooping brows can make a person appear tired, angry, or older than their actual age — a brow lift corrects all of this with lasting, natural results.

Signs You May Benefit from a Brow Lift

• Low or drooping eyebrows that hood the upper eyelids
• Deep horizontal forehead lines
• Vertical frown lines between the brows (glabellar lines)
• A constantly tired, sad, or angry facial expression
• Loss of brow arch definition and youthful brow position

Surgical Techniques

Several brow lift techniques are available depending on the degree of correction needed. The endoscopic brow lift uses small incisions within the hairline and a tiny camera, offering minimal scarring and faster recovery. The temporal brow lift targets the outer brow region specifically. For patients with higher foreheads or more extensive correction, an open (coronal) brow lift may be recommended.

Procedure Details

Brow lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia or IV sedation and takes 1–2 hours. It is commonly combined with upper blepharoplasty or facelift for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation result. Incisions are placed within the hairline to minimize visible scarring.

Recovery

Most patients experience swelling and mild numbness in the forehead for 1–2 weeks. Sutures or staples are removed within 7–10 days. Social activities can generally be resumed within 2 weeks. The final result of the forehead lift becomes apparent within 4–6 weeks and lasts for several years.
