What Is A Brow Lift?

A brow lift improves the appearance of the forehead, the brow and the area around the eyes by raising the soft tissue and skin of the forehead and brow.

You might choose to have a brow lift if you have a low, sagging brow or brow asymmetry. This commonly occurs during the ageing process.

A browlift is commonly combined with other rejuvenating facial procedures, such as eyelid surgery or a face-lift.

What Does It Involve?

There are three common techniques for eyebrow lift surgery:

Endoscopic Brow Lift – incisions are made behind the hairline and a thin camera (endoscope) is used to view your underlying muscles and tissues. Using an instrument inserted through another incision, your forehead tissues are lifted and anchored in an elevated location
Coronal Brow lift - an incision is made behind the hairline across the top of the head, from ear to ear. The skin tissue is then lifted to an elevated position, and any excess tissue excised
Hairline brow lift - an incision is made between the top of the forehead and the beginning of the hairline. Skin and tissue is removed from the top of the forehead to ensure the hairline is not pulled back (i.e. often used for those with a receding hairline)

Eyebrow lift surgery is often combined with eyelid reduction surgery and fat grafting, or lipofilling. Fat grafting lifts and adds volume to the brow and the temple, providing an enhanced permanent structure to support the forehead skin.

What is a non surgical eyebrow lift?

The two popular non surgical eyebrow lift techniques are:

Injectables to reduces the lines and wrinkles, and reduce the pull of muscles bringing the eyebrow downwards. Fillers can be used to plump out areas and provide additional volume
Enerjet high energy therapy - delivers kinetic energy and a healing compound to a controlled depth in the brow to stimulate collagen production and thicken the dermis, as well as correct surface skin imperfections

Testimonials

I had the most amazing experience with the Cadogan Clinic and Mr van Niekerk. They were extremely accommodating and professional. I was a little bit hesitant to go through with it but their safety standards and professionalism put me at ease. Most importantly I am so happy with my results.

It has been four weeks since my surgery with Mr Solomos and although I am still healing, I am already so happy with my outcome. I’m filled with new confidence and everything about the procedure went really smoothly.

A massive thank you to the Cadogan Clinic. I am very pleased with the results from my surgery. My patient advisor was extremely organised and made me feel reassured throughout the whole experience. My surgeon Ms Hawkes was excellent and so was the Clinic team - I could not have asked for a better service

I would like to thank the Cadogan Clinic and my surgeon Naveen Cavale for the outstanding job he did on my complicated and difficult surgery. Mine was an unusual case, but I could not have had a better outcome. Throughout the whole process from my first contact with the clinic I had wonderful support. Someone was always on the end of the phone, and I really appreciated the support

The Cadogan Clinic and their surgical and nursing staff were excellent throughout my experience with them. The 24/7 nursing support in particular was a huge comfort to me, and I found them extremely responsive

A huge thank you to the Cadogan Clinic and Dr Zamani who looked after me whilst having surgery. They treated me with so much care and it was truly appreciated. The care from the nurses was wonderful, and I genuinely felt that they really cared. First class service from the start. I also had follow-up calls the day after, couldn’t ask for more. A huge thank you to all involved

I was very impressed and extremely pleased with the Cadogan Clinic, right from booking my initial consultation all the way through to having the surgical procedure done and the aftercare appointments that followed. Dr Sadideen was extremely reassuring and transparent , and made me feel very comfortable during my treatment

I had a procedure at the Cadogan Clinic with Mr Atherton. From my first consultation, Mr Atherton was honest, straight forward, and precise. All the details and expectations of the surgery were fully explained, along with the after care. I am still in recovery, but the results already look fantastic; he delivered on all the promises that he made to me.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to the brow area as we age?

The skin and soft tissues of the face descend with age. It is, however, delayed where it is fixed to the deeper tissues around the eyes, ear, nose and mouth, giving the familiar droopiness and folds. Descent of the eyebrows has a further consequence in that skin builds up below the eye itself. The eyelids develop loose skin on their own, but in addition, they become bunched up by the lower brow.

Am I suitable for a Brow Lift?

Anyone with the following characteristics is suitable for a brow lift:

+ Sagging brow
+ Drooping eye brows
+ Loose elastic skin in the brow, eye and forehead area
+ Fine brow lines and forehead wrinkles
+ Asymmetrical brow region

Typically patients who are most suitable for a surgical brow lift are between the ages of 40 and 60 years old, and with good skin elasticity. Non surgical alternatives may be more suitable for those in younger age brackets.

Who will perform my Brow Lift treatment?

Whether your treatment is surgical or non surgical, you will be treated by a specialist aesthetic plastic or oculoplastic surgeon.

How should I prepare for my Brow Lift surgery?

No special preparation is required although it is generally advisable to do the following before any surgery

+ Stop smoking. Smoking decreases blood flow in the skin and can slow the healing process. If you smoke, your doctor will recommend that you stop smoking before surgery and during recovery.
+ Avoid certain medications. You'll likely need to avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements, which can increase bleeding.
+ Arrange for help during recovery. Make plans for someone to drive you home after you leave the hospital and stay with you for at least the first night of your recovery at home.

Are my Brow Lift results permanent?

This will depend on what treatment you opt for. Surgery provides a long lasting result which will only reverse with the ongoing action of ageing.

Injectables are a temporary solution, and are not permanent.

Enerjet delivers long lasting, albeit non-permanent results.

What can I expect during my recovery from my Brow Lift treatment?

For non surgical Brow Lift treatments you will be able to immediately resume your daily activities with no downtime.

For surgical Brow Lift treatments you will need to spend several days recovering at home, and up to two weeks off work. We recommend you do not take strenuous exercise for 4 -6 weeks, with results first fully observable from this point forward.

What are the risks of Brow Lift surgery?

Risks are rare but as with any surgery there are some possible complications:

+ Scarring
+ Changes in skin sensation - temporary or permanent numbness on the forehead or top of the scal.
+ Asymmetry in the position of the brows
+ Hair problems – an elevated hairline or hair loss at the incision site

Like any other type of major surgery, a brow lift also poses risk of bleeding, infection and an adverse reaction to anaesthesia.
