What are the possible side effects of a brow lift?

It is worth remembering that any procedure that breaks the continuity of the skin may cause complications such as hematomas, bruising, redness, or itching. If these symptoms become more severe, you should contact the clinic – we will certainly be able to help.

What are the contraindications to a brow and forehead lift?

Contraindications to a brow and forehead lift include: • significant obesity, • anemia, • any inflammatory conditions in the body, especially inflammation of the face, • acute infection, • hemorrhagic diathesis and other blood clotting disorders, such as thrombophilia, • taking anticoagulant, • smoking, • uncontrolled diabetes, • uncontrolled hypertension, • exacerbation of other chronic diseases, • active cancer or suspected cancer. Relative contraindications also include: • an implanted pacemaker and cardioverter/defibrillator, • pregnancy and breastfeeding, • taking heparin and its derivatives. You should always inform your attending physician about any existing contraindications.

Are there alternative treatment options?

Yes, depending on your individual needs and the severity of your concerns, there are several alternatives to a surgical brow and forehead lift. Non-surgical options may include botulinum toxin (Botox) injections to relax forehead muscles and subtly lift the brows, dermal fillers to restore volume, or thread lifting for a temporary lifting effect. However, these methods typically offer less dramatic and shorter-lasting results compared to surgery. Your specialist will help determine the most appropriate treatment based on your goals and medical condition.

Do visible scars remain after a brow and forehead lift?

The procedure involves small incisions made in discreet areas, for example along the hairline or above the eyebrows. If the wound heals properly, the scars are usually barely visible and, over time, become almost completely unnoticeable, as they are concealed by the hairline.

Does the effect of a brow and forehead lift change facial features?

The procedure does not change facial features; it only enhances them subtly. Its aim is to restore natural proportions and a younger-looking appearance, as well as gently lift a drooping eyelid, without creating an artificial-looking effect.

Brow and forehead lift

Brow and forehead lift is a procedure designed to effectively lift sagging brows, smooth forehead wrinkles, and enhance the overall appearance of the upper face. This is achieved through delicate incisions made in strategic areas—just above the brows and along the hairline at the top of the forehead.

The technique is known for its effectiveness as well as its subtle, natural-looking results.

How to prepare

2 Weeks Before the Procedure:

Have your blood tests done: complete blood count, coagulation profile (APTT, INR), and viral screenings (anti-HCV, anti-HBs, anti-HIV).
If you have a thyroid condition, also include TSH, fT3, and fT4.
You must not be experiencing any infections, taking antibiotics, or suffering from inflammation or cold sores at this time.

1 Week Before the Procedure:

Limit or ideally stop the use of stimulants such as alcohol and cigarettes.

On the Day of the Procedure:

Do not come on an empty stomach — eat a light meal and stay well hydrated.
Make sure your skin and hair are clean, and arrive without makeup or any creams on your face.
Menstruation is NOT a contraindication — the procedure can still be safely performed.

Is this tight for you?

The brow and forehead lift is an ideal procedure for those who want to subtly yet effectively rejuvenate and refresh their facial appearance. It’s especially recommended if:

You have sagging brows or eyelids that make your face look tired or sad.
You’re bothered by deep forehead wrinkles.
You’d like to improve the symmetry of your eyebrows.

Treatment process

After sterile preparation of the treatment area, the specialist makes precise incisions—typically along or just behind the hairline. The underlying muscles and fat tissue are then gently repositioned to lift sagging brows and smooth out forehead wrinkles. Finally, the incisions are carefully sutured and the treated area is properly protected.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia in a treatment room. The patient remains fully conscious and alert throughout, and no hospital stay is required.

Results

The procedure lifts the brows to a more natural, youthful position while reducing wrinkles and improving brow symmetry. The result is a long-lasting, rejuvenated, and more refreshed facial appearance—enhancing not only your looks but also your everyday comfort and confidence.

Post-Treatment Care

Protect the treated area from any injury, excessive sun exposure, UV radiation, dirt, and moisture. Keep the dressings clean and change them as needed. About 7 days after the procedure, return to the clinic for a follow-up and suture removal. A final check-up should be scheduled approximately 3 months later.
