Is a brow lift for me?

A brow lift might be suitable for you if you notice sagging eyebrows, forehead wrinkles, or frown lines that give you a tired or sad appearance. This procedure can provide a more youthful and refreshed look. Additionally, if drooping brows interfere with your vision, a brow lift can help improve it.

During the procedure

Depending on the technique used, different incisions will be used. The internal brow lift, often combined with upper blepharoplasty, involves small incisions within the eyelid. The gliding brow lift is regarded as an "incision-free" technique to gently lift and reposition the brows with minimal scarring by lifting the skin layer upwards. The direct brow lift makes incisions above the eyebrows for significant drooping, while the temporal brow lift focuses on the outer brows with incisions in the temples.
