Why Choose THE BEAUTY Plastic Surgery for a Brow Lift?

International patients receive comprehensive support from English-speaking coordinators throughout consultation, surgery, recovery, and follow-up.

What Is a Brow Lift?

A Brow Lift is a surgical procedure that raises the eyebrows and forehead tissues to correct brow ptosis (drooping brows) and improve upper facial aging.

As we age, the brows gradually descend due to gravity and loss of tissue support, creating:

• Heavy eyebrows
• Hooded upper eyelids
• Forehead wrinkles
• Deep horizontal forehead lines
• Frown lines between the eyebrows
• Tired or angry appearance
• Loss of upper facial definition

By repositioning the brow to a more youthful position, a Brow Lift restores a brighter, more refreshed appearance while reducing forehead wrinkles and improving the upper eye area.

A Brow Lift can improve:

• Drooping eyebrows
• Hooded upper eyelids caused by brow descent
• Forehead wrinkles
• Horizontal forehead lines
• Frown lines (glabellar lines)
• Heavy upper face
• Tired-looking eyes
• Overall facial harmony

Who Is a Good Candidate?

A Brow Lift may be recommended for patients who have:

• Low or drooping eyebrows
• Heavy upper eyelids caused by brow descent
• Deep forehead wrinkles
• Horizontal forehead lines
• Frown lines
• Asymmetrical brows
• Early or advanced upper facial aging
• Patients seeking long-lasting upper facial rejuvenation

Most candidates are typically in their 40s through 70s, although younger patients with naturally low brows or genetic brow heaviness may also benefit.

Benefits of a Brow Lift

Lift Drooping Brows

The procedure restores the eyebrows to a more youthful position, creating a brighter and more open appearance.

Improve Hooded Upper Eyelids

Elevating the brows reduces heaviness over the upper eyelids caused by brow descent.

Smooth Forehead Wrinkles

Lifting the forehead tissues softens horizontal forehead lines and improves overall skin smoothness.

Create a More Refreshed Appearance

Correcting brow position helps patients look more alert, youthful, and approachable without changing their natural facial identity.

Long-Lasting Results

A Brow Lift provides durable improvement while allowing the face to continue aging naturally.

Personalized Surgical Planning

Every Brow Lift is customized according to the patient's facial anatomy.

Your surgeon carefully evaluates:

• Brow position
• Brow symmetry
• Forehead height
• Skin elasticity
• Forehead wrinkles
• Upper eyelid hooding
• Hairline position
• Overall facial proportions

Many patients achieve the best results by combining a Brow Lift with upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, facelift, fat grafting, laser resurfacing, or regenerative skin treatments.

Brow Lift vs. Upper Blepharoplasty vs. Forehead Lift

Each procedure addresses different causes of upper facial aging.

Brow Lift

• Raises drooping eyebrows
• Opens the eye area
• Reduces forehead wrinkles
• Improves hooding caused by brow descent
• Best for low brow position

Upper Blepharoplasty

• Removes excess upper eyelid skin
• Improves vision obstruction
• Creates a more defined eyelid crease
• Does not raise the eyebrows

Forehead Lift

• Focuses on the entire forehead
• Treats extensive forehead wrinkles
• Often includes brow elevation
• Ideal for more advanced upper facial aging

Your surgeon will determine the most appropriate procedure based on your anatomy and treatment goals.

Procedure Overview

Brow Lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation, depending on the surgical technique.

The procedure generally includes:

• Comprehensive facial consultation
• Personalized surgical planning
• Carefully concealed incisions within the hairline or along natural contours
• Elevation and repositioning of the brow tissues
• Adjustment of underlying soft tissues when needed
• Precise wound closure
• Postoperative monitoring

Most surgeries take approximately 1.5–3 hours, depending on the technique used and whether additional procedures are performed.

Recovery

Recovery progresses steadily over several weeks.

Most patients experience:

• Mild to moderate swelling and bruising during the first one to two weeks
• Temporary forehead tightness or numbness
• Return to light daily activities within 7–10 days
• Continued improvement in swelling over several weeks
• Progressive scar maturation
• Final results becoming increasingly refined over 3–6 months

Following your surgeon's postoperative instructions is important for optimal healing and long-lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Brow Lift?

A Brow Lift is a surgical procedure that elevates the eyebrows and forehead tissues to improve drooping brows, forehead wrinkles, and hooded upper eyelids while creating a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

Does a Brow Lift make the eyes look bigger?

A Brow Lift can make the eyes appear more open by lifting the brows and reducing heaviness over the upper eyelids. However, it does not change the actual size or shape of the eyes.

Is a Brow Lift the same as upper eyelid surgery?

No. A Brow Lift raises the eyebrows, while upper blepharoplasty removes excess skin from the upper eyelids. Many patients benefit from combining both procedures for optimal upper facial rejuvenation.

How long do Brow Lift results last?

Results commonly last 10–15 years, depending on skin quality, genetics, lifestyle, and the natural aging process.

Will I look surprised after surgery?

No. Modern Brow Lift techniques are designed to restore the brows to a natural position while preserving normal facial expressions and avoiding an overly elevated or "surprised" appearance.

How long is the recovery?

Most patients return to light daily activities within 7–10 days, while swelling continues to improve over several weeks.

How long should international patients stay in Korea?

Most international patients are advised to stay in Korea for approximately 10–14 days to complete follow-up visits before returning home.

Can a Brow Lift be combined with other procedures?

Yes. A Brow Lift is commonly combined with upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, facelift, fat grafting, forehead rejuvenation, laser resurfacing, or regenerative skin treatments for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
