The Procedure

A brow lift  is a surgical procedure designed to elevate drooping eyebrows, and rejuvenate the upper face. By repositioning the brow to a more youthful level, the procedure restores a refreshed appearance and can make the eyes look more open and alert. A brow lift can be performed alone or often in combination with an upper eyelid lift also called blepharoplasty.

How It Works

Brow lift surgery can be performed under local or general anesthesia.

It often involves:

  • Small incisions at or posterior to the hairline
  • Elevation and repositioning of the brow tissues
  • Minimal visible scarring

In some cases, other techniques may be recommended depending on anatomy and hairline position.

"Subtle elevation, timeless expression."
— Dr Youssef Rayess, Plastic Aesthetic Surgeon

Recovery & Timeline

Understanding your healing journey.

What to Expect After Surgery

Recovery varies among patients, but most can expect
  • Mild discomfort is expected and well controlled with prescribed medications.
  • Rest is recommended during the first few days.
  • Swelling and bruising around the forehead and eyes are common and vary between patients.
  • Temporary tightness or numbness of the forehead and scalp may occur.
  • Sutures or staples are typically removed within 7 to 10 days.
  • Most visible signs of surgery gradually subside over 10 to 20 days.
  • Strenuous activities and sports should be avoided for at least 3 to 4 weeks.
  • The brow may appear slightly elevated or tight initially due to swelling, which will settle over time.


When can I observe the result?

Initial improvements are visible once swelling and bruising subside, typically within a few weeks. A more refined and natural result becomes apparent after two to three months, with final results visible after several months as tissues fully settle and healing progresses.
