Brow Lift (browplasty)
Overview
A brow lift is a surgical procedure that may be used to adjust the position of the brow and address forehead or brow tissue laxity in selected patients. It can be considered when brow position contributes to upper eyelid heaviness or facial balance concerns. A consultation is required to confirm suitability, discuss scarring, risks and alternatives.

You May Be a Good Candidate If
You may be a good candidate if you:
- You have brow position concerns that are not adequately addressed by non‑surgical options.
- You understand the need for scars and that scar quality varies.
- You can plan for recovery and follow‑up.
- You do not smoke or can cease nicotine as directed.
Who Should Not Undergo This Procedure
- Uncontrolled medical conditions increasing risk.
- Inability to stop nicotine use when required.
- Expectation of a scar‑free or guaranteed outcome.
Surgical Techniques & Approaches
Technique selection is individual and based on your anatomy, goals and safety considerations. Options may include:
- Endoscopic brow lift (selected cases): smaller incisions within the hairline with tissue repositioning.
- Hairline or coronal approach (selected cases): incisions placed to allow broader access; scar location varies.
- Direct brow lift (selected cases): may be considered in specific clinical situations; scar trade‑offs are discussed.
Your clinician/surgeon will explain the recommended approach and expected trade‑offs during consultation.
