Non-surgical brow lifts are performed using neuromodulators such as Botox and dermal fillers to lift the tail of the brow and help create a gentle arch. This is the most common type of brow lift in the younger patient population and can be a very effective means of shaping and lifting the tail of the brow. This 'chemical' brow lift usually lasts for several months and may be repeated as often as needed to maintain the result. A surgical brow lift, on the other hand, is a more invasive and long-lasting procedure that can take several weeks of healing and recovery. A surgical brow lift can lift and reshape the brows, as well as remove excess forehead skin, leading to a smoother appearing forehead with less heaviness along the upper eyelids. Surgical brow lifts are usually considered in patients with moderate to advanced facial aging; however, some types of surgical brow lifts, such as a temporal brow lift, may be performed in younger patients who seek a change in the brow shape or arch.
