Anti-aging & lifting

Brow lift

Raises the brow line slightly to relieve upper-lid heaviness — a smaller-scar, shorter-recovery alternative to a full forehead lift.

Who it suits

  • Drooping brow tail giving a sad look
  • Prefers a smaller operation
  • Older patients with mild upper-lid laxity

Technique highlights

  • Small scar hidden at the brow or hairline
  • Shorter recovery than a forehead lift
  • Can be combined with upper blepharoplasty

Surgical steps

  • Target brow level marked
  • Brow tissue lifted and fixed
  • Closed with fine sutures

Recovery & aftercare

  • Downtime ranges from none to 1-2 weeks depending on the procedure
  • Sutures removed at day 7-10 for surgical cases
  • Recommended stay in Korea of 7-10 days for surgical lifting
  • The full result appears at around three months

Risks & things to consider

  • Results depend on the individual's anatomy, skin condition and after-care
  • Always disclose medical conditions, medication and allergies before treatment
  • Every procedure carries risks and possible complications; consult a specialist before deciding

Frequently asked questions

How does it differ from a forehead lift?

A brow lift adjusts the brow line only, while a forehead lift raises the whole forehead and softens its lines.

Are results immediate?

Change is visible immediately, but the true result appears once swelling settles at 2-4 weeks.
