Brow Lift Surgery – Lift Eyebrows & Smooth Forehead Lines

Brow lift surgery helps lift sagging eyebrows, reduce forehead lines, and refresh the upper face. Achieve a more alert, youthful appearance with advanced brow lift techniques tailored to your facial structure.

Brow Lift (Forehead Lift)

A brow lift is a cosmetic procedure that lifts and repositions the forehead, smooths out wrinkles, and restores a youthful, refreshed appearance. It’s ideal for reducing frown lines and correcting a sagging or tired look caused by aging. Though results are long-lasting, minor wrinkles may gradually return with time.

What is a brow lift?

A brow lift is a cosmetic surgery that moves your forehead skin up to raise your eyebrows, smooth out wrinkles, and give you a younger look. As you get older, your skin loses its stretch. Sun damage and gravity make the skin weaker, which pulls your brow down and causes wrinkles. You may get deep lines between your eyebrows that make you look serious or angry. You may also see lines going across your forehead. The outer part of your eyebrows can droop, making you look tired or sad. A brow lift can help fix these changes.

Other names for a brow lift:

  • Forehead lift

  • Forehead rejuvenation

  • Browplasty

  • Temporal brow lift (side brow lift)

What does a brow lift do?

A brow lift helps with:

  • Wrinkles across your forehead and on the bridge of your nose

  • Vertical lines between your eyebrows (the “11s”)

  • Drooping eyebrows that make your eyes look tired or heavy

Why it’s done

As you age, your skin and soft tissues lose firmness, and your brows naturally move lower. This shortens the space between your eyebrows and eyelashes, making you look tired, angry, or sad.

A brow lift helps by raising the eyebrows, giving you a fresher and more awake appearance.

You might think about getting a brow lift if:

  • Your brows are low or drooping.

  • Your upper eyelids look heavy or saggy because of your brow position.

How to Prepare for a Brow Lift

Before getting a brow lift, your surgeon will:

  • Review your medical history – You’ll discuss any health issues, past surgeries, medications, or allergies.

  • Do a physical exam – The surgeon will examine your face and possibly take photos.

  • Discuss your goals – You’ll talk about your desired results and understand the risks and benefits.

Before surgery, you may need to:

  • Stop smoking – Smoking delays healing.

  • Avoid certain medicines – Such as aspirin or herbal supplements that increase bleeding.

  • Plan recovery support – Arrange for someone to drive you home and stay with you the first night.

What You Can Expect

A brow lift is usually done in a hospital or outpatient center. You’ll either get sedation through an IV or general anesthesia to keep you comfortable during the procedure.

During the Procedure
The technique depends on your desired results, and your surgeon may choose one of the following:

  • Endoscopic brow lift: Small incisions behind the hairline, using a tiny camera to lift and secure tissues with sutures or screws.

  • Temporal brow lift: Small cuts near the temples, behind the hairline.

  • Direct brow lift: Skin is removed above the eyebrows, often for bushy brows, done under local anesthesia.

  • Coronal brow lift: Long cut across the top of the head, scalp lifted and stitched—usually not recommended for people with high hairlines or thin hair.

  • Hairline brow lift: Incision at the top of the forehead to correct a high hairline—may leave a visible scar.

The whole surgery typically takes 1 to 2 hours.

After the Procedure

  • Forehead may be wrapped and a small drain might be placed to remove fluid.

  • Keep your head elevated and take pain meds as advised.

  • Use cold compresses to help with swelling.

  • Avoid pressure or motion around the incisions.

  • Bandages usually come off in 1–3 days; stitches are removed in 7–10 days.

  • Itching or numbness is normal and fades over time.

Ask your doctor before resuming regular activities like washing hair. Swelling can last for several weeks.

When to Call Your Doctor

  • Sudden swelling

  • Shortness of breath

  • Chest pain

  • Irregular heartbeat

Results
The surgery lifts your forehead and brows, giving a younger, fresher look. But results aren’t permanent—aging and sun damage can affect them over time.

Risks of a Brow Lift

A brow lift, like any surgery, carries some risks, including:

  • Scarring – Some scars may be visible depending on the technique used.

  • Numbness – Temporary or permanent numbness on the forehead or scalp can occur.

  • Uneven brows – One brow may heal higher than the other, though this can often settle over time or be corrected with treatments like Botox or minor surgery.

  • Hair issues – Hair loss or a higher hairline may happen near the incision site. Hair grafting or scalp revision can help if it doesn’t improve naturally.

  • Surgical risks – As with any major surgery, there’s a chance of bleeding, infection, or a reaction to anesthesia.
