An eyebrow lift—also called a brow lift or forehead lift—is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to raise the position of the eyebrows, smooth out forehead wrinkles, and rejuvenate the upper face. It corrects sagging or uneven brows, reduces frown lines, and restores a more youthful, alert appearance.
During the procedure, the surgeon lifts and tightens the soft tissue and skin of the forehead to reposition the brows. It is often combined with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or face lift procedures for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Several surgical techniques are used, depending on the patient's facial anatomy, desired outcome, and degree of skin laxity:
A minimally invasive technique where small incisions are made behind the hairline. A tiny camera (endoscope) helps the surgeon reposition the muscles and tissue. This method results in less scarring and faster recovery.
An incision is made along the front of the hairline, allowing for brow elevation without pulling the hairline back. Ideal for patients with a high forehead.
Involves a long incision across the scalp from ear to ear. The forehead skin is lifted and excess tissue removed. This method offers dramatic results, but recovery time is longer.
The incision is made directly at the hairline and is suitable for patients who want to maintain their natural forehead proportions. It reduces hairline recession while achieving a noticeable lift.

Ideal patients for brow lifts typically have low-set or drooping eyebrows, while blepharoplasty is for those with excess skin or fat around the eyelids. They are often combined for full upper-face rejuvenation.
You're likely a good candidate if you:
A consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is essential to evaluate the best technique for your goals.
“11 lines” are vertical creases between the eyebrows, usually caused by repeated muscle activity (frowning) and aging. A brow lift can weaken the muscles causing these lines or reposition them. For less severe cases, Botox is a non-surgical option.
Recovery depends on the technique and your body's healing capacity:
You should avoid strenuous activity, direct sun exposure, and facial pressure during early recovery.
Like all surgeries, a brow lift carries some risks:
Choosing a qualified, board-certified surgeon reduces these risks significantly.
