<strong>Brow</strong> <strong>Lift</strong> Surgery<br />
Technique<br />
There are two broad categories of brow lift surgery, based on the incision length – a standard brow lift or short<br />
scar variation, and the endoscopic brow lift. Patients that qualify and elect to have a short scar operation will<br />
often have less downtime along with a shorter scar. The longer scar technique allows for greater access and<br />
therefore can achieve greater effects in most areas. The technique chosen is tailored for each individual<br />
patient.<br />
A lateral brow lift is a variant that can be used in selected patients who have hooding of the outer aspects of<br />
the eyebrow only. A short incision is made in the temporal hairline, the lateral brow is re-suspended and<br />
maximal results are achieved by combining this with a chemical brow lift using an anti-wrinkle injection, such<br />
as Botox.<br />
A brow lift, or forehead lift, can help rejuvenate the upper face by lifting the<br />
brow line to a higher, more youthful, position and reducing the appearance of<br />
lines and wrinkles of the forehead. It is often performed in combination with a<br />
facelift and/or blepharoplasty for full facial rejuvenation.<br />
The endoscopic browlift is a minimal access technique performed by using an endoscope and specialised<br />
instruments placed through small incisions made within the hairline. This allows repositioning of the underlying<br />
tissue and muscle and re-suspension of the brow to give a more youthful appearance.<br />

Recovery time will vary depending on the type of brow lift you have had, this may be anywhere from 5 days to<br />

2 weeks based on the size of your incisions. Your incisions are stitched and your forehead may be taped with<br />
your head wrapped in a loose bandage to minimise swelling and bruising.<br />
After the removal of your sutures (5 to 10 days) you will be ready to return to most normal activities.<br />
There will be temporary bruising and numbness both at the site and also the surrounding area, which may last<br />
for up to two weeks. As with all other surgery, medication will be prescribed to help prevent any pain or<br />
discomfort and prevent any infection.<br />
Healing continues for several weeks to months after your swelling settles and your scars mature.<br />

Risks<br />
If you are considering a brow lift, then it is important that you are informed of the potential risks, complications<br />
and side effects of this surgery.<br />
While all care is taken to minimise or totally avoid these complications and side effects, complications may<br />
and do occur despite the best medical care. It is important that you carefully read and understand the risk<br />
factors and they will be discussed in more detail when you have your consultation with your surgeon.<br />
