What is a Brow Lift?

A brow lift (forehead lift or browplasty) is a surgical procedure that raises the eyebrows and reduces forehead wrinkles. It addresses sagging brows that can make you look tired, sad, or angry, and smooths horizontal forehead lines and frown lines.

Modern brow lift techniques focus on natural-looking results — refreshed and rested rather than surprised or unnatural. The most common approach today is endoscopic, using small incisions hidden in the hairline.

A brow lift can open up the eye area, create a more youthful appearance, and is often combined with blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) or facelift for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Types of Brow Lift

Endoscopic Brow Lift

1–2 weeks recovery

Minimally invasive technique using small incisions and a camera. Most popular method with shorter recovery.

Coronal Brow Lift

2–3 weeks recovery

Traditional technique with incision across top of head. Best for significant sagging, more dramatic results.

Temporal Brow Lift

1 week recovery

Targets the outer portion of the brow only. Ideal for lifting drooping outer brows.

Direct Brow Lift

1 week recovery

Incision directly above the eyebrow. Best for patients with very heavy brows or those who prefer simpler approach.

Combination procedures: Brow lift is often combined with blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), facelift, or fat transfer for comprehensive upper face rejuvenation.

Safety Checklist

Brow lift is a delicate procedure affecting the upper face appearance. The forehead has important nerves that control movement and sensation. Choose your surgeon carefully:

  • Board-certified plastic surgeon specialising in facial surgery
  • Before/after photos of brow lift patients
  • Hospital or accredited surgical facility
  • Clear explanation of incision placement
  • Realistic expectations discussion
  • Post-operative care and follow-up plan

Key question to ask: "What technique do you recommend for my anatomy and how many brow lifts do you perform annually?"

Recovery Timeline

Days 1–3:Maximum swelling and bruising, head elevated, cold compresses
Days 4–7:Swelling begins to subside, bruising fades, light walking encouraged
Days 7–10:Stitches/staples removed, fit-to-fly assessment, most bruising resolved
Weeks 2–3:Return to normal activities, numbness gradually improves
Months 1–3:Continued improvement, sensation returns, scars mature and fade
Months 3–6:Final results visible as all swelling resolves and tissues settle

Are You a Good Candidate?

Ideal Candidates

  • Realistic expectations

Considerations

  • • Smokers have higher complication risk — must quit
  • • Very high hairline may need different technique
  • • Younger patients may benefit from non-surgical options first
  • • Some medical conditions require clearance
  • • Previous forehead surgery may affect approach

What is the recovery time for a brow lift?▼
Initial recovery: 1–2 weeks (visible bruising/swelling). Socially presentable: 1–2 weeks. Return to work: 1–2 weeks (desk job). Full recovery: 2–3 months. Final results: 3–6 months as tissues settle.
Which country is best for brow lift surgery?▼
Turkey offers excellent value with experienced surgeons. Poland and Hungary combine EU standards with competitive pricing. Spain offers premium quality. Choose based on budget, desired quality level, and surgeon expertise.
Am I a good candidate for a brow lift?▼
Ideal candidates have sagging or drooping brows, deep forehead wrinkles, frown lines between eyebrows, or a tired/angry appearance due to brow position. Good skin elasticity and realistic expectations are important. Typically ages 40–65.
How long do brow lift results last?▼
Brow lift results typically last 5–10 years. You continue aging naturally but from a more refreshed baseline. Lifestyle factors (sun exposure, smoking, skincare) affect longevity. Some patients combine with other facial procedures.
