At DR Surgery, our approach to brow lifting focuses on refinement, not exaggeration. Using carefully selected techniques — Direct Brow Lift and Gliding Brow Lift — we restore a naturally lifted, refreshed appearance while preserving your unique facial expression.
With time, the brow can descend, creating heaviness, forehead lines, and a tired or stern appearance. These procedures reposition the brow, improving upper facial harmony and subtly opening the eye area.
Both techniques are performed with meticulous attention to tissue handling and scar placement, ensuring results that are natural, balanced, and long-lasting.
A brow lift is a targeted surgical procedure designed to elevate the brow position and smooth the upper face. At DR Surgery, we focus on two highly effective, minimally invasive techniques:
Direct Brow Lift
Incisions are placed discreetly just above the brow, allowing direct elevation and control. This technique is particularly effective for patients with heavier brows or asymmetry, offering reliable, predictable results.
Gliding Brow Lift
A refined technique that allows the brow to be mobilised and repositioned through minimal access, preserving natural movement while achieving a softer elevation. Ideal for patients seeking subtle, elegant lifting without obvious change.
These procedures can address:
Where appropriate, brow lift surgery may be combined with blepharoplasty for a more comprehensive upper face rejuvenation.
Brow lift surgery is performed as a minor day-case procedure under local anaesthetic, with or without light sedation.
You return home the same day with a structured aftercare plan.
While non-surgical treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections can offer temporary lift, these surgical techniques provide a structural and long-lasting solution.
Benefits include:

A detailed consultation will determine whether a direct brow lift or gliding brow lift is most appropriate.
