What Is Eyebrow Lifting?

Drooping eyebrows can make the eyes appear smaller and are often associated with aging, along with forehead wrinkles.

Eyebrow lifting surgery elevates the brows, whether sagging is caused by genetics or develops over time, resulting in a more youthful and vibrant appearance.

This procedure is performed with a special device called an endoscope through a small incision hidden within the hairline.

Types of Eyebrow Lifting Methods

• Endoscopic eyebrow lifting

• Direct eyebrow lifting

• Coronal eyebrow lifting

What Aesthetic Procedures Can Be Combined with Endoscopic Eyebrow Lifting?

Endoscopic eyebrow lifting can be combined with other procedures, including:

• Endoscopic temporal lift

• Upper and lower eyelid surgery

• Face lift and neck lift surgery

Since facial aesthetics are evaluated as a whole, combined surgeries are often performed to achieve more balanced and comprehensive rejuvenation results.

How Is Endoscopic Eyebrow Lifting Performed?

Endoscopic eyebrow lifting is carried out under general anesthesia or sedation.

A small incision is made in the scalp, where the endoscope is inserted to visualize and reposition the brows. The eyebrows are then lifted to the desired level.

This method is particularly effective for patients with eyebrow asymmetry, providing noticeable and natural-looking improvement.

Advantages of the Endoscopic Eyebrow Lifting Method

• Minimal pain and a comfortable recovery process

• Very small incisions within the scalp, reducing the chance of visible scarring

• Natural and rejuvenated forehead appearance

• Effective correction of asymmetry and sagging brows

Preparation Before Eyebrow Lifting Surgery

Before scheduling the procedure, the patient’s medical history is carefully reviewed to rule out any contraindications.

• Patients using anticoagulant medication are advised to discontinue them under medical supervision at least one week before surgery or switch to alternatives.

• Herbal teas and supplements rich in vitamins and minerals should be avoided before the operation.

Recovery After Endoscopic Eyebrow Lifting

Recovery is usually fast and comfortable.

• Patients can return to daily activities within a few days.

• Bruising and swelling typically resolve within two weeks.

Risks and Possible Side Effects of Endoscopic Eyebrow Lifting

Like all surgical procedures, endoscopic eyebrow lifting carries potential risks, such as:

• Infection

• Bleeding

• Delayed wound healing

• Minimal hair loss at the incision site

Following medical advice and prescribed medications significantly reduces the risk of complications and supports a smooth recovery.
