Does a plastic surgery perform brow lift?

Short answer

A plastic surgeon can perform a brow lift, also called a forehead lift, after assessing your brow position, forehead tissues and treatment goals.

This answers one question. It is not a diagnosis and does not replace an assessment by a licensed doctor.

What a brow lift changes

A brow lift repositions selected tissues of the forehead and brow to alter the relationship between the brow, upper eyelids and forehead lines. The surgeon chooses an approach according to hairline, skin, muscle activity, brow shape and any previous procedures. A brow lift does not treat every upper-eyelid concern; loose eyelid skin may need a separate assessment. During consultation, the surgeon discusses incision placement, anaesthesia, facial balance and how the plan relates to your natural expressions.

Preparing for a surgical discussion

Bring a list of medicines and describe headaches, forehead sensation changes, hair loss, previous facial surgery, eye symptoms and difficulty raising or closing the eyelids. Share the change you want without relying only on a photograph. Ask whether the brow or eyelid is the main source of the concern, what technique is proposed, how scars are managed and which activities must pause during recovery. Follow the clinic's instructions before and after the procedure.

When to seek medical care

After a brow lift, seek urgent help for sudden vision change, severe eye pain, rapidly worsening swelling, heavy bleeding, confusion, weakness or trouble breathing. Contact the surgical team for fever, spreading redness, pus, wound opening, worsening pain or a new facial movement problem. These findings require assessment rather than waiting for a scheduled follow-up.

Questions for your doctor

Ask what tissue will be repositioned, how the brow shape will be planned, whether eyelid treatment is also relevant, where incisions will sit, and which recovery changes are expected.

Questions people ask

Is a brow lift the same as eyelid surgery?

No. A brow lift repositions forehead and brow tissues; eyelid surgery reshapes selected eyelid tissue.

Why are the eyelids examined during a brow lift consultation?

Brow position and eyelid tissue affect one another, so examining both helps clarify the source of the concern.
