Brow Lift
Elevate drooping brows and smooth forehead wrinkles for a refreshed, more alert appearance.
What is Brow Lift?
A brow lift (forehead lift) elevates the eyebrows and reduces forehead creases, frown lines, and hooding over the eyes. Dr. Sarika Gangwar performs endoscopic brow lifts through small hidden incisions, minimizing scarring and recovery time while delivering a naturally refreshed look. This procedure opens the eye area, reduces forehead lines, and creates a more youthful, alert facial expression.
Why is Brow Lift Needed?
Drooping eyebrows can make you look tired, sad, or angry — even when you feel great. This is caused by age-related loss of facial elasticity, gravity, and changes in skin texture. A brow lift corrects the position of the brows to open up the eye area and smooth deep forehead lines that resist Botox or fillers. The result is a dramatically more refreshed appearance.
Who is Eligible?
- Adults with drooping or asymmetric brows
- Deep forehead lines or frown lines
- Good general health
- Non-smokers or willing to quit before surgery
- Realistic expectations about outcomes
The Procedure — Step by Step
Consultation & Assessment
Detailed assessment of brow position, forehead lines, eyebrow shape, and overall facial harmony to create a personalized surgical plan.
Anesthesia
General anesthesia or conscious sedation administered for patient comfort and safety.
Endoscopic Technique
Small incisions (3–5mm each) are made behind the hairline where they are completely hidden. An endoscope guides the surgeon to precisely reposition tissues.
Brow Elevation
Underlying tissues and muscles are carefully adjusted and secured at a higher, more youthful position. Forehead lines are smoothed in the process.
Recovery & Closure
Minimal sutures close the tiny incisions, which are hidden by hair. Recovery begins immediately with rapid healing.
Recovery Timeline
Day 1–3
Mild swelling around forehead and eyes. Rest recommended. Bruising is typically minimal with the endoscopic technique.
Week 1
Most swelling resolves noticeably. Resume light activities like walking and office work. Avoid heavy lifting.
Week 2–3
Resume normal activities. Return to exercise. Final results beginning to show.
Month 1–2
Swelling completely resolved. Final results settle perfectly. Scars fade and become completely invisible.
Expected Results
A more youthful, alert appearance with a smoother forehead and elevated brows. Frown lines are significantly reduced. Results last 5–10 years, with many patients seeing excellent results at the 10-year mark. You'll look naturally refreshed, not overdone.
Safety & Quality Assurance
The endoscopic technique minimizes risks and avoids the longer incisions of traditional brow lifts. The procedure is performed under strict surgical safety protocols with proper anesthesia monitoring. Nerve damage is extremely rare with this technique.
Frequently Asked Questions about Brow Lift

No. Incisions are hidden behind the hairline and become completely invisible once healed. The endoscopic technique ensures minimal scarring.
