What Is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift is a surgical technique that elevates sagging brows and forehead skin for a more youthful, alert appearance. It can correct low or drooping eyebrows, deep horizontal forehead lines, glabellar (frown) lines between the brows, and upper-eyelid heaviness caused by brow drooping by gently lifting sagging skin and repositioning the underlying muscles and tissue.
Results of a Brow Lift:
- Visible improvement appears within the first few weeks and continues refining over 8 to 12 weeks.
- Results typically last 7 to 10 years, depending on skin quality, sun exposure, and lifestyle.
- Brightens and opens the eye area without eliminating natural facial expression.

Are You a Good Candidate?
You may be a good candidate for a brow lift if you:
- Look tired, angry, or upset even when well-rested or genuinely happy
- Notice your brows sagging with age, creating a heavier appearance
- Want to soften stubborn forehead lines that no longer respond to creams or injectables
- Experience eyelid heaviness that makes your eyes look smaller or more fatigued
- Want a refreshed, symmetrical brow shape for more youthful facial harmony
Types of Brow Lift Procedures:
1. Endoscopic Brow Lift:
A minimally invasive technique using multiple small incisions concealed in the hairline. A small camera (endoscope) guides the surgeon in lifting and repositioning tissue and muscle.
- Less scarring, faster healing
2. Coronal (Traditional) Brow Lift:
Involves a longer incision across the scalp, from ear to ear.
- Allows full access to the entire forehead
- Suitable for patients with considerable sagging
- Can elevate a low hairline, though it may cause temporary scalp numbness
3. Hairline (Pretrichial) Brow Lift:
An incision made along the hairline itself.
- Suitable for patients with a high forehead who don’t want it extended further
- Allows precise elevation with minimal hairline distortion
4. Temporal (Lateral) Brow Lift:
Targets just the outer brow region through tiny incisions around the temples.
- Frequently paired with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)
- Ideal for minor brow droop or asymmetry
Benefits of a Brow Lift:
- Lifts sagging brows to a more youthful position, softening the “tired” look
- Smooths forehead lines from years of expression
- Delivers results that last significantly longer than injectable maintenance
- Improves confidence through a naturally refreshed appearance
Commonly Combined Procedures:
Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty):
Addresses droopy upper eyelids and under-eye puffiness for a brighter, more open eye area.
Full Facelift:
Lifts sagging cheeks and jawline and tightens loose neck skin, working alongside a brow lift for complete facial rejuvenation.
Botox & Fillers:
Softens any remaining fine lines and restores volume as a finishing touch after surgical healing is complete.
Brow Lift vs Botox: What’s the Difference?
| Feature | Brow Lift Surgery | Botox Injections |
| Type | Surgical | Non-surgical |
| Duration of results | 7–10 years | 3–4 months |
| Downtime | 1–2 weeks | Minimal |
| Cost | Higher upfront, one-time | Lower per session, recurring |
| Best for | Significant sagging, structural change | Mild lines, early prevention |
Many patients start with Botox for early forehead lines and move to a brow lift once sagging becomes more structural your consultation with Dr. Hamid Ali Esmaeilpour will help determine which stage fits you.
The Procedure, Step by Step:
- Consultation and planning – your facial structure, health history, and aesthetic goals are reviewed to select the right technique.
- Anesthesia – general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, based on the technique and your preference.
- Incision – placed according to technique: hidden in the hairline for endoscopic, ear-to-ear across the scalp for coronal, or around the temples for temporal.
- Tissue reshaping – underlying muscles and tissue are repositioned, and excess skin is removed if needed.
- Closing – fine sutures or staples close the incisions, with protective dressings applied.
Recovery Timeline:
| Period | What to Expect |
| Days 1–3 | Rest, ice application, prescribed pain medication |
| Week 1 | Swelling peaks, then begins to improve |
| Week 2 | Stitches removed if needed |
| Week 3 | Most normal daily activities resume |
| Month 2 | Final results become visible |
Aftercare Guidelines:
- Keep your head elevated on 2–3 pillows for the first week to reduce swelling
- Take prescribed antibiotics as directed
- Gently clean incision sites as instructed
- Apply only surgeon-approved ointments
- Avoid strenuous activity until cleared at follow-up
