What is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at addressing the appearance of the forehead, brow, and area around the eyes. This procedure addresses excess skin on the brows, deep forehead creases, and frown lines. By lifting the brow and reducing the wrinkles, it can adjust facial symmetry and address signs of ageing. Brow lifts can be performed using various techniques, including endoscopic methods, which involve smaller incisions and less scarring.
Who May Benefit
Individuals with heavy eyebrows that contribute to a tired appearance.
Those with deep forehead creases wanting to reduce their appearance.
People seeking to adjust facial symmetry and balance.
Individuals looking to address their overall facial aesthetics.

Anaesthesia Administration
The procedure begins with the administration of anaesthesia for patient safety and comfort throughout the surgery.
