Short answer

A plastic surgeon with experience in forehead and upper-face surgery performs a brow lift, also called a forehead lift.

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

What a brow lift addresses

A brow lift changes the position of the forehead tissues and brow. The surgeon considers brow height, forehead lines, eyelid skin, hairline, facial movement and symmetry before recommending an approach. Techniques may use incisions near the hairline or smaller access points, depending on the anatomy and planned correction.

Brow position can overlap with eyelid concerns. A careful assessment helps determine whether a brow lift, eyelid surgery, another treatment or a combination is appropriate. The aim should be a proportionate plan that respects normal expression and eye function.

Preparing for consultation

Select a licensed plastic surgeon who performs upper-face surgery and can show how the proposed change relates to your eyes and forehead. Bring details of previous facial procedures, medicines, allergies, smoking or vaping, and any dry-eye or vision symptoms. Ask about scars, hairline changes, anaesthesia, recovery and follow-up.

When to seek care

Seek prompt medical review after surgery for sudden vision change, severe headache or eye pain, rapidly worsening swelling, heavy bleeding, fever, facial weakness or difficulty closing the eyes. New double vision or a rapidly changing droop should be assessed rather than attributed to normal healing.

Useful questions

Ask how your brow and eyelids will be assessed, which technique is proposed, where scars may sit, how expression may change, what recovery involves and which warning signs need urgent review.

Questions people ask

Is a brow lift the same as eyelid surgery?

No. A brow lift changes forehead and brow tissues, while eyelid surgery focuses on the eyelid skin or tissues; an examination determines which area is contributing to the concern.

Who should assess a brow droop affecting vision?

A plastic surgeon can assess the brow, and an eye specialist may be involved when vision or eyelid function is affected.
