Procedure Details

What Is Eyebrow Lifting?

Eyebrow lifting is a procedure designed to tighten and elevate the eyebrow area by repositioning the underlying muscles and tissues.

The main goals of an eyebrow lifting surgery is to achieve a more open eye area, smoother forehead appearance, and improved facial symmetry.

How Is the Eyebrow Lift Procedure Performed?

Eyebrow lifting can be performed using several techniques, including surgical and non-surgical methods.

Surgical eyebrow lifting techniques include:

• Surgical Eyebrow Lift with Open Surgery: This technique involves making incisions along the hairline or scalp to lift the brows, remove excess skin, and achieve long-lasting rejuvenation.

• Endoscopic Surgical Eyebrow Lift: A minimally invasive surgical method using small scalp incisions and a camera to elevate the eyebrows with reduced scarring and shorter recovery time.

On the other hand, non-surgical eyebrow lifting techniques are:

• Non-Surgical Eyebrow Lift with Thread: Absorbable threads are inserted under the skin to lift and support the eyebrows, providing immediate results with minimal downtime.

• Non-Surgical Eyebrow Lift with Filler: Dermal fillers are strategically injected to restore volume and subtly lift the brows by enhancing structural support.

• Eyebrow Lift with Focus Ultrasound: High-intensity focused ultrasound stimulates collagen production in deeper skin layers to gradually lift and firm the eyebrow area without incisions.

The most appropriate technique is determined after a comprehensive evaluation by an experienced surgeon.
