About the brow lift procedure

The operations aimed at restoring a more youthful brow shape involve an endoscopic forehead lift. It is performed through several small incisions in the hair behind the hairline. The dissection is assisted with use of an endoscope, hence the name. At the time of the surgery the frown muscles can be weakened, but it is usually better not to destroy them completely as the position of the brows can then change.

Surgical Brow Lift

The procedure is carried out as a general anaesthetic and most commonly involves an overnight stay. It is frequently associated with a facelift or eyelids operation.

After your operation

Expect some bruising around the forehead and possible headaches for the first few days. It is wise to limit the activity levels in order to keep the bruising under control.

The position of the eyebrows starts a little higher than the end-result, but will usually settle within the first few months.The main risks related to this type of procedure are decreased sensation in the forehead which is most commonly temporary.

Non-Surgical Brow Lift Procedure

A brow lift using Botox is a very simple and painless procedure. A few tiny injections are placed around the brow area. These look like little mosquito nicks to begin with, but wil clear in half an hour. It is a simple, in/out procedure and you can go back to work straight away.
