Brow Lift

Brow lifting can be endoscopic, temporal, direct, or via a hairline (pretrichial) incision. Choice depends on hairline height, brow shape goals, and hair density. Over-elevation produces a surprised look and should be avoided.

• Brow height and arch
• Upper lid hooding
• Forehead lines
• Hairline position (pretrichial approach)

• General physical health suitable for the anaesthetic required
• Realistic, clearly articulated aesthetic or functional goals
• Stable anatomy appropriate for the technique proposed
• Non-smoking or willingness to stop for the surgeon's required window

1. 01Endoscopic access through small scalp incisions
2. 02Temporal or pretrichial incisions for greater control
3. 03Fixation with sutures, screws, or endotines

1. Day 1

   Immediate post-operative period. Swelling begins, dressings or splints may be in place, supervised rest.

2. Week 1

   Peak swelling and bruising. Limited activity, soft diet where relevant, first follow-up visit.

3. Week 2

   Bruising fades. Many people feel socially presentable, light activity resumes.

4. Week 4

   Most acute swelling resolves. Gradual return to exercise as cleared by the surgeon.

5. Month 3

   Contours become clearer. Residual swelling continues to settle.

6. Month 6

   Result is largely representative of the final outcome.

7. Month 12+

   Final refinement, scar maturation, and revision assessment if needed.
