What Is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift adjusts the position of descended eyebrows. The aim is a brow position and shape suited to your face, rather than simply lifting as high as possible. Raising a low brow can reduce heaviness over the upper eye area and soften a tired or angry appearance.
Brow descent and excess eyelid skin are different problems. Blepharoplasty treats selected eyelid skin or fat; a brow lift addresses the tissues above the eyelid. Either or both may be considered after examination.
Benefits of a Brow Lift
Potential changes depend on the planned correction:
- Raises low or sagging eyebrow tissues.
- Refines the position of a descended brow tail.
- Reduces heaviness above the eyes when brow descent is the cause.
- May soften a tired or angry appearance while respecting facial proportions.
Your Brow Lift Procedure in Dubai
Key facts about brow lift surgery with Dr. Bouraoui Kotti:
- Procedure type: Surgical repositioning of eyebrow tissues.
- Surgery duration: Depends on the technique and any combined procedures.
- Recovery: Individual follow-up guides wound care and return to daily activities.
- Anaesthesia: Local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, according to the surgical plan.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Brow Lift?
A brow lift may suit people who:
- Have low-set eyebrows or a descended outer brow.
- Notice upper-eye heaviness caused by brow descent.
- Are in suitable general health for the proposed surgery.
- Have realistic expectations about brow shape, symmetry and scarring.
Dr. Kotti assesses brow movement, hairline height, eyelid skin, eye closure and previous procedures to determine suitability.
Brow Lift Techniques
The approach depends on the location of brow descent, eyelid anatomy and hairline.
| Technique | How it works | Planning considerations |
|---|---|---|
Temporal Brow Lift | A temporal lift, also called a lateral brow lift, repositions the outer brow through an approach around the temple or scalp. | Targets a drooping brow tail; does not provide the same central forehead correction as a broader lift. |
Endoscopic Brow Lift | A camera and instruments through short scalp incisions allow supporting tissues to be repositioned. | May address a wider brow region. Small incisions still leave scars, and elevation depends on anatomy. |
When considering an endoscopic brow lift or temporal lift in Dubai, discuss which part of the brow needs correction. The endoscopic approach describes camera-assisted access; temporal describes the area treated. These terms can overlap, and neither name alone determines the incision pattern or extent of lifting.
Brow lift and forehead lift are overlapping names. If your concerns include broader forehead laxity, lines or a planned hairline change, explore forehead lift approaches and the brow lift vs forehead lift comparison.
