Expressive eyes complemented by a smooth forehead and an arched eyebrow position convey a youthful look. After the eyelids, the forehead and brow are the first to start showing signs of aging. The effect of aging, gravity, genetics and sun damage causes the forehead and eyebrows to start sagging from their normal position, making you look older. A brow lift rejuvenates and restores a smooth and youthful-looking forehead by lifting your brow and reducing the wrinkles.
Drooping forehead and sagging brow give an appearance of hooding of upper eyelids in the absence of eyelid skin excess. The furrowed eyebrows can unintentionally make you look tired, angry, or sad. The forehead muscle overactivity to compensate for this droop and maintain the eyebrow position results in forehead wrinkles and an aged appearance. A forehead lift or brow lift or browpexy restores brow position and reduces the forehead wrinkles and furrows to give you a calm, rested, fresh and youthful appearance. It is usually performed in conjunction with blepharoplasty and facelift. A temporary improvement in brow position and forehead wrinkles can be achieved by injecting botulinum toxin; however, for longer-lasting results, a brow lift/ forehead lift is necessary.

The brow lift is usually performed as a daycare procedure under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia and can take 1-2 hours depending on the procedure.
The endoscopic brow lift is performed with the help of specialised instruments with a camera to lift the brow through four to six small incisions hidden in your hairline. The forehead tissues are lifted and anchored with sutures and small screws. The muscles causing forehead wrinkles are also partially weakened in this procedure.
The temporal brow lift is performed through a small hidden incision in the hair and is mainly performed to raise the side of the brow to create a rejuvenated and youthful look.
The direct brow lift places the scar directly above the eyebrow.
The Coronal brow lift is preferred if you have a good hairline and want to increase the height of your forehead. An incision is placed across the scalp hidden in your hairline, the forehead is lifted, and excess hair-bearing skin is excised.
In a hairline brow lift, unlike coronal brow lift, the hairline is pulled down and excess forehead skin excised. It can help lower a high or receding hairline. However, the incision scar is present along your hairline requiring you to cover it with a hairstyle or microblading/pigmentation.
Since it’s a daycare procedure, you will be observed for a few hours post-procedure until you are comfortable and then discharged the same evening. Some bruising, swelling and numbness is expected in the brow and forehead region which usually resolves in 1-2 weeks.
Excessive brow movements need to be avoided in the recovery period. The result of surgery, even though dramatic and immediately visible, further improves over the next 1-3 months as the swelling disappears. Post-operative instructions, medications, and emergency contact details are shared.
You will follow up with Dr.Sudhanva 5-7 days and 10-14 days after the procedure. Additional follow-ups are advised at 6 weeks,12 weeks, and 12 months after your surgery.
Details of Brow Lift in a Capsule
What is the ideal position of male and female eyebrows?
A female eyebrow starts over the superior orbital rim (upper part of the eye socket) and then gently arches upward, while male eyebrow is more horizontal. The highest part of the arched brow is typically higher than in the centre.
Will the recovery after a brow lift be painful?
Recovery after a brow lift can be easily managed by oral pain killers. Mild discomfort and tightness may be present immediately after surgery, which subsides within a few days.
When can I start exercising post brow lift?
Light exercise can be resumed 1 week after surgery, and more vigorous exercises can be resumed 3 weeks after surgery.
When can I resume work after a brow lift?
It usually depends on how you feel. Most patients safely resume work as early as 2-3 days post brow lift surgery.
When can I travel by flight or drive after a brow lift?
Driving a vehicle or air travel is advised at least after 3-4 days post-surgery to avoid blurring of vision and allow the swelling to reduce. However, it is a personal decision based on how comfortable you feel about it.
Will the scars be visible?
The scars are carefully planned within the hairline and are usually hidden by hair. However, any scars in front of the hairline may need to be covered by altering hairstyle or microblading/pigmentation.
What are the potential risks and complications of a brow lift?
The specific risks and complications associated with your brow lift surgery will be discussed in detail during your consultation with Dr. Sudhanva.
Will my insurance cover brow lift?
A brow lift is performed purely for cosmetic purposes and will not be covered by insurance.
