Patients can typically have a browlift performed and go home the same day.

Patients can have the procedure under local anaesthetic or can be asleep with a general anaesthetic. The incision for a browlift is directly above the top line of the eyebrow. 

Patients who are constantly having to use their forehead muscles due to being unable to see clearly at the edges of their visual fields. 

This can result in significant creasing on the forehead, and in those patients who have had anti-wrinkle treatment, the drop in the brow can cause significant problems.

Some patients may have a genetic predisposition to this (Young people with heavy brows) or most commonly, age-related dropping of the brow.

When patients come into the clinic, our UK-trained plastic surgeon makes a full assessment of the patient.

This includes any relevant history, including reasons for surgery and a thorough examination of the brow and the upper eyelid itself.

Part of this process is explaining to the patients what can be done, why, and what to expect, based on each patients’ anatomy and suitability for each type of browlift.
