As we age, the brows tend to lower and the skin on the forehead and around the eyes may begin to sag. This can lead to a heavy or tired appearance, making you look older than you feel.
A brow lift offers a transformative procedure for those seeking to rejuvenate their appearance. By precisely repositioning the forehead skin and underlying muscles, a brow lift can smooth horizontal lines and reduce furrows, lifting the brows to a youthful position. This not only enhances the eyes by diminishing drooping or hooded eyelids but also revitalises your overall look, giving you a more vibrant and alert appearance.
Beyond the visual impact, the emotional benefits are profound. Many patients experience a significant boost in self-confidence, feeling more at ease in social and professional settings.
Additionally, a brow lift can address functional issues, such as reducing forehead tension or headaches caused by muscle strain. By alleviating these discomforts, you can enjoy an improved quality of life and even potentially enhanced peripheral vision if sagging skin has been obstructing your sight.
One of the most appealing aspects of a brow lift is its natural-looking results. The changes are subtle yet significant, enhancing your beauty without altering your personal facial characteristics. This natural integration ensures the results are harmonious and long-lasting, offering years of satisfaction and a rejuvenated appearance that stands the test of time.
The brow lift is not just about looking younger – it’s about feeling revitalised, confident, and ready to embrace life with renewed energy. Whether you seek a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic transformation, this procedure provides a holistic improvement that resonates far beyond the surface.
A brow lift can be a transformative option for anyone experiencing drooping or sagging brows, deep forehead creases, or asymmetrical eyebrows. Candidates for brow lift surgery are typically individuals seeking a natural yet noticeable enhancement to rejuvenate their overall appearance. This treatment is particularly beneficial if you:
At SRGN Clinic in the UK, the brow lift procedure is carefully tailored to each patient’s needs to ensure natural, effective results. The process begins with an in-depth consultation, where your surgeon assesses your facial structure, skin elasticity, and discusses your goals. This step ensures a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your expectations.
On the day of surgery, the procedure is performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, depending on your preference and the surgeon’s recommendation. Small incisions are strategically placed along the hairline or within natural creases to minimise visible scarring. Through these incisions, the skin and underlying muscles are gently lifted and secured, reducing wrinkles and repositioning the brows to a more youthful position.
Recovery is typically smooth, with most patients returning to normal activities within a week or two. At SRGN Clinic, your comfort and safety are prioritized throughout the process, with regular follow-ups to monitor your healing and ensure optimal results.
With a focus on subtle, long-lasting outcomes, SRGN Clinic’s expert team helps you achieve a rejuvenated appearance while maintaining your natural facial characteristics. The clinic’s dedication to high standards ensures you’ll feel confident and cared for at every step.

It is generally well-tolerated with minimal pain. During the procedure, anaesthesia is used to ensure comfort. Post-surgery, you may experience mild discomfort, which is easily managed with prescribed medication. Most patients report only slight soreness and tightness, which subsides within a few days.
There are several types of brow lifts, each designed to address specific concerns and can be performed alone or with other procedures like blepharoplasty or a facelift: Internal Brow Lift: Performed during blepharoplasty, this technique uses internal sutures to lift the brow by about 3mm without additional incisions or scars. Lateral Temporal Brow Lift: This popular technique lifts the outer two-thirds of the eyebrow through small incisions hidden in the hairline, offering powerful lifting with minimal visible scarring. Direct Brow Lift: Involves removing a small strip of skin above the eyebrow to lift it, with the scar concealed along the brow. Though less common today, it’s still used in certain cases where precise lifting is needed. Each method is chosen based on your unique anatomy and desired results, ensuring a tailored approach to achieving your aesthetic goals.
If you're wondering whether it is right for you, it generally suits those in good health who are experiencing drooping brows, forehead wrinkles, or frown lines. While it's often sought by individuals in their 40s to 60s, younger people with naturally heavy brows can also benefit. A personal consultation is crucial, where a skilled surgeon will assess your facial structure, skin elasticity, and overall health.
After the treatment, it's important to follow proper aftercare for a smooth recovery. Use cool packs on the eye and forehead area to reduce swelling and bruising. Avoid bending, heavy lifting, or strenuous activities during the healing process. Elevate your head on 2 to 3 pillows at night to minimise swelling. You can wash your hair 48 hours post-surgery, but avoid wearing contact lenses for two weeks. Most people can return to work within 1 to 2 weeks and resume normal activities after 4 weeks. Scars usually heal quickly, fading into fine, well-hidden lines over time.
It lifts the position of the brows and smooths forehead lines, while eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) removes excess skin from the eyelids. Both procedures can be performed together for comprehensive rejuvenation around the eyes.
Scars are discreetly placed along the hairline, making them minimal and nearly invisible. With proper care, any scarring should continue to fade over time.
Most patients feel comfortable returning to work and light activities within 1-2 weeks after a brow lift. Any residual swelling usually resolves by the end of the second week.
