Browplasty (Brow Lift)
A procedure that raises a sagging or lowered brow for a more alert, refreshed appearance.
What is Browplasty (Brow Lift)?
A brow lift raises the position of the eyebrows and smooths the forehead, addressing sagging or drooping that can create a tired, heavy, or aged appearance around the eyes. Depending on your specific needs, your surgeon may use a minimally invasive endoscopic technique, with small incisions hidden in the hairline, or a more traditional approach for more significant lifting. Underlying muscles and tissue are repositioned to raise the brow to a more youthful position. The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia with sedation, typically taking one to two hours.
Why is this procedure performed?
- Sagging or drooping eyebrows creating a tired appearance
- Deep forehead furrows or frown lines
- Heaviness above the eyes affecting your appearance
- A desire for a more alert, refreshed look around the upper face
- Often combined with eyelid surgery for comprehensive upper face rejuvenation
How does this procedure help?
A brow lift restores a more alert, youthful position to the eyebrows and smooths related forehead lines, often making a significant difference to overall facial expression and how rested you appear. Most patients notice a visible improvement once initial swelling resolves within a couple of weeks, with results continuing to settle over the following months. Depending on the technique used, results are typically long-lasting, often five to ten years or more.
