What Is a Brow Lift (Eyebrow Lift)?
A brow lift is a cosmetic procedure that elevates the position of the eyebrows and improves the overall appearance of the forehead and upper eyelids.
It can be performed surgically, where muscles and skin are lifted or non-surgically, using techniques like Botox or threads for a temporary lift.
Common motivations
- Sagging or drooping brows that make the face look tired
- Hooded eyes caused by low-set brows
- Deep forehead lines or wrinkles
- Desire for a fresher, more open expression
Who is a good candidate?
Most patients are between 18 and 55 years old, although age is flexible depending on skin quality. Suitable candidates include both men and women who:
- Notice heaviness around the brows and eyelids
- Have a tired or stern appearance unrelated to mood
- Want a youthful, refreshed look without changing their identity
Why Choose Turkey for a Brow Lift?
Turkey has earned its place as a global leader in cosmetic surgery, and brow lifts are one of the procedures attracting international patients every year.
🧑⚕️ Experienced surgeons & modern hospitals
Turkish plastic surgeons often train internationally and bring advanced techniques back home. At Vanity Cosmetic Surgery Hospital, eyebrow lifts are performed using both surgical and non-surgical methods, with a strong focus on natural-looking outcomes.
🌍 Wide range of options

Brow Lift Techniques & Options
The right technique depends on your age, facial anatomy, and desired results. Here’s a breakdown of what’s available in Turkey.
✨ Surgical brow lift types
- Endoscopic brow lift: Small incisions hidden in the hairline, using a tiny camera for precise lifting with minimal scarring.
- Temporal (lateral) brow lift: Focuses on raising the outer part of the brows for a subtle “cat-eye” effect.
- Coronal brow lift: Involves a longer incision across the hairline, typically used for more advanced sagging.
- Direct or mid-forehead lift: Incisions placed above the brow or within forehead creases, often chosen for older patients.
✨ Non-surgical brow lift options
For those not ready for surgery, less invasive approaches include:
- Botox brow lift: Relaxes certain muscles to allow the brows to lift naturally.
- Dermal fillers: Restore lost volume in the forehead or temples for subtle elevation.
- Thread lift: Uses dissolvable or permanent threads placed under the skin to reposition the brows.
These options provide temporary results (usually 6–12 months) but are popular among younger patients or those wanting to “test drive” the look.
👉 For full details, explore our Brow Lift Techniques page.
Choosing the right technique
- Younger patients (18–35): Often lean toward Botox or threads for a gentle lift.
- Middle-aged patients (35–50): May benefit most from endoscopic or temporal lifts.
- Older patients (50+): Sometimes require coronal or direct lifts for stronger correction.
Your surgeon will guide you through the decision based on anatomy, expectations and longevity of results.

What to Expect After a Brow Lift
A brow lift can be transformative, but it’s important to understand the healing process and results timeline.
👣 Healing process & scars
For surgical brow lifts, incisions are carefully hidden in the hairline or natural forehead creases. Over time, scars fade and become barely noticeable.
💊 Swelling, bruising & discomfort
Most patients experience mild discomfort, easily managed with medication. Swelling and bruising around the forehead and eyes are normal and subside in a couple of weeks.
Longevity of results
- Surgical lifts: Results can last 7–10 years or more, depending on age, lifestyle, and skin quality.
- Non-surgical lifts: Botox, fillers, and threads typically last 6–18 months and may require maintenance.
⚖️ Realistic expectations
A brow lift won’t change who you are, it will refresh and harmonize your natural features. The goal is to look rested and youthful, not overdone.
