LIFT. REFRESH. REJUVENATE.
Expert forehead lift surgery to raise sagging brows, smooth forehead lines, to refresh the upper face.
ABOUT THIS PROCEDURE
A brow lift — also known as a forehead lift — is a surgical procedure that repositions sagging or low-set brows to a more youthful position, while smoothing the horizontal lines and furrows that develop across the forehead over time. The result is a more open, refreshed, and naturally alert appearance to the upper face.
Descended brows are one of the earliest and most impactful signs of facial ageing. They can create a permanently tired or stern expression regardless of mood. By tightening the skin and underlying tissues of the forehead and brow area, a brow lift restores natural facial harmony without an overcorrected or artificial look.
The procedure can be performed as a standalone operation or in combination with blepharoplasty or a facelift for patients seeking more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Professor Hindocha tailors every brow lift to the individual’s anatomy, hairline, and aesthetic goals.

RECOVERY TIMELINE
Days 1–3
Swelling, bruising, and tightness around the forehead are normal. Keep the head elevated, apply cold compresses, and avoid bending or strenuous activity.
Week 1–2
Most bruising begins to fade and sutures or clips are removed. Light activity and return to work can begin. Avoid sun exposure to the forehead and healing incisions.
Week 3–4
Visible swelling resolves significantly and most everyday activities resume. Numbness or tingling in the forehead is normal and gradually improves over the coming weeks.
Week 6+
The brow settles into its new position and scars continue to fade. Final results are increasingly apparent — a naturally lifted, refreshed upper face that lasts for many years.
EXPECTED OUTCOMES
A brow lift delivers natural, long-lasting improvement to the upper face. Most patients describe looking more rested, alert, and like themselves again.
WHY CHOOSE A BROW LIFT
The brow is surgically repositioned to its natural youthful height, correcting descent caused by ageing. Results are balanced, proportionate, and entirely natural in appearance.
A single procedure simultaneously lifts the brows, smooths forehead lines, and reduces frown furrows — delivering broad upper face rejuvenation in one surgical session.
A brow lift produces structurally enduring results. The position of the brow is corrected at a tissue level — not temporarily — with improvements that typically last for many years.
Brow lift is frequently performed alongside blepharoplasty or a facelift, allowing patients to address the full upper face and beyond in a single, efficient surgical session.
WHY CHOOSE US
A brow lift requires precise understanding of facial anatomy and the delicate relationship between brow position, eyelid appearance, and overall facial harmony. Overcorrection — the hallmark of a poor result — is avoided through careful planning and conservative technique. Professor Hindocha’s approach prioritises natural, proportionate outcomes above all.
Every patient receives a personalised consultation to assess brow descent, forehead anatomy, hairline position, and aesthetic goals before any surgical plan is developed. The result is a procedure designed entirely around you.
COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES
A brow lift is frequently combined with other facial procedures for a more complete rejuvenation result.
BLEPHAROPLASTY
The brow and upper eyelid work in concert. Combining a brow lift with blepharoplasty addresses both descended brows and excess eyelid skin in a single procedure for a fully refreshed upper face.
FACE LIFT
For patients seeking broader rejuvenation, a brow lift pairs naturally with a facelift to address ageing across the entire face — from the forehead to the jowls — in a single surgical session.
NECK LIFT
A neck lift tightens excess skin below the chin and along the neck. Combined with a brow lift and facelift, it addresses the upper and lower face together.

After years of being unhappy with my breasts after breastfeeding, I'm so glad I trusted my instincts and waited until I found the right surgeon. From my first consultation, Professor Hindocha made me feel completely at ease and I knew I could trust him. I'm only a week post-op and already love my results. I feel incredibly lucky to have found him and truly believe I found the best surgeon.
