BROW LIFT IN DUBAI
Brow Lift at Al Manara Specialized Medical Center – Dubai
A brow lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to elevate the position of the eyebrows and enhance the space between the brows and the eyes. This subtle yet powerful enhancement helps create a more refreshed, youthful, and attractive facial appearance.
By gently lifting the outer edges of the brows higher than the inner edges, the face gains a naturally lifted and more harmonious contour. Low or drooping eyebrows can often contribute to a tired, aged, or unhappy look. A brow lift effectively corrects this, often in combination with a facelift for more comprehensive rejuvenation.
There are several methods available for lifting the brows, including surgical and non-surgical techniques such as injectables, each tailored to the patient’s unique needs and facial structure.

How Is Brow Lift Surgery Performed?
Brow lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and is considered a long-lasting solution compared to non-surgical alternatives such as Botox. Unlike temporary injectables that require routine maintenance, surgical brow lifts deliver more precise and permanent results in a single procedure.
The process involves making discreet incisions along the hairline, allowing the surgeon to lift and reposition the brows using specialized permanent threads or sutures. Since the incisions are hidden within the hairline, scarring is minimal and virtually invisible.
Following the surgery, patients may be required to stay overnight for observation, depending on their individual case and the type of anesthesia used.
Brow Lift Techniques
There are two main types of brow lift procedures: surgical and non-surgical. Each technique varies in terms of results, recovery time, and how long the outcome lasts.
Botox Brow Lift
A non-surgical option that involves injecting Botox into specific areas around the eyes to relax the muscles and subtly lift the brows. This method provides quick results with minimal downtime, typically lasting 4–6 months. It’s ideal for mild sagging or fine lines. Aftercare includes avoiding sunlight, not rubbing the area, and refraining from makeup application immediately after treatment.
Laser Brow Lift
Using radiofrequency or laser energy, this method stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin around the brow. It is a gentle technique with results that develop gradually and last longer than Botox. However, it’s not suitable for advanced sagging, and surgical intervention may be necessary in such cases.
Thread Lift
A thread brow lift involves inserting dissolvable threads beneath the skin to reposition and lift the brows. This minimally invasive procedure takes around 30 minutes, with results lasting up to 3 years. It’s a safe, non-surgical option with immediate visible results and minimal downtime.
Surgical Brow Lift
This traditional method offers a long-term solution for moderate to severe sagging. A plastic surgeon makes small incisions along the hairline, lifts the brow area, and secures the tissue with permanent sutures. The incisions are hidden within the hairline, making them virtually invisible after healing. This procedure is performed under general anesthesia and typically requires an overnight stay for observation.
