An eyebrow lift, also known as a brow lift or forehead lift, is a cosmetic procedure that raises the position of the eyebrows to create a more open, refreshed, and youthful eye area. It also smooths horizontal forehead lines and frown lines (glabellar lines), helping to correct a tired, angry, or aged appearance.
This procedure can be done surgically or non-surgically, depending on your facial anatomy, desired results, and recovery preferences.
To raise drooping or sagging eyebrows
To reduce forehead wrinkles and frown lines
To open up the eye area and brighten the expression
To correct asymmetry in eyebrow height or shape
To delay signs of aging or maintain facial harmony
To boost self-confidence and improve facial balance

No. When performed correctly, brow lifts provide a natural elevation that restores a neutral, relaxed expression—not an overly lifted or surprised look.
Surgical results last 5–10 years. Non-surgical options like threads, filler, or ultrasound provide temporary results that last 6–18 months, depending on the method.
Surgical incisions are hidden within the hairline or natural creases and fade significantly over time. Non-surgical lifts leave no scars at all.
Yes. Brow lifts—especially surgical or direct methods—are highly effective at correcting uneven brow height or shape.
