What is a Brow Lift (Browplasty)?
Brow lifts, also known as forehead lifts, or a browplasty, are surgical procedures that aim to lift and smooth the forehead and brow area. By repositioning the underlying muscles and tissues, a browlift (Browplasty) surgery aims to reposition the underlying muscles and tissues.
Types of Brow Lift (Browplasty) Procedures
Gliding Brow Lift
This is also known as an endoscopic brow lift. Two small incisions are made on each side of the forehead. The surrounding skin is then elevated and sutured.
Temporal Brow Lift
A small incision is made on each side of the forehead in the hairline. With a deep plane dissection, the skin around the eye is lifted and sutured.
Direct Brow Lift
An excision is made just above the eyebrows to create a lift. The scar is usually hidden within an existing crease or at the end of the brow.
Trans-blepharoplasty Browpexy
This is a slightly adjusted upper eyelid surgery. An incision is made in the upper eyelids to lift the skin, creating an arch.
Coronal Brow Lift
Also known as an open brow lift, an incision is made across the forehead from ear to ear to shorten the forehead.
A/Prof. White offers personalised browlift (browplasty) care and support.

Common Brow Lift (Browplasty) Surgery Questions
How do I know which type of browlift is right for me?
The best approach depends on your facial structure, skin elasticity, and the location of excess skin or forehead lines. A one-on-one consultation with A/Prof. White may help determine the most suitable brow lift (browplasty) technique.
How long does a brow lift last?
Results from a brow lift (browplasty) may last 5 to 10 years or more. While ageing continues, most patients enjoy long-term improvements in the upper face. Maintaining realistic expectations and a healthy lifestyle may help extend results.
What does the post-surgery recovery period look like?
During the recovery process, you may experience swelling and bruising. This typically subsides after the first week.
To support recovery, A/Prof. White may recommend keeping your head elevated and avoiding strenuous activity. You’ll also be guided through post-operative care with clear instructions tailored to your procedure.
Is surgery my only option?
Not always. If your concern is mild, non-surgical options may help, especially for forehead lines or a heavy brow.
However, to address excess skin, deep furrows, or significant skin laxity, a browlift (browplasty) may offer more consistent results. A/Prof. White takes the time to explore all options with you first, so you may feel confident you’re receiving the right care.
