A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a rejuvenating surgical procedure designed to elevate a drooping brow line and smooth deep forehead wrinkles. By repositioning the soft tissues of the upper face, a brow lift opens up the eye area, diminishes frown lines, and restores a youthful, approachable, and rested expression.
Treatment
At Shumaila’s London, we ensure you never walk the path of your surgical journey alone. From your initial consultation through to your final transformational result, our dedicated medical experts will be by your side, providing compassionate and continuous support.
The Procedure
Over time, gravity and loss of skin elasticity can cause the eyebrows to drop, creating a heavy, tired, or even angry appearance. A brow lift gently raises the brow to its natural, youthful position while smoothing the horizontal creases across the forehead and the vertical “11” lines between the eyebrows. We utilize modern surgical techniques to ensure results are subtle and complimentary to your natural facial structure.
At Shumaila’s London, we tailor every aspect of this treatment to your unique anatomy and aspirations, ensuring a premium experience that is synonymous with our brand.

Frequent Asked Questions
No. A skilled surgeon carefully calibrates the lift to restore your natural brow position, avoiding an over-pulled or artificial appearance.
A brow lift raises the eyebrow itself and smooths the forehead. Eyelid surgery removes excess skin from the eyelid. They are often performed together.
While it resets the clock by years and results last for a decade or more, natural aging will eventually continue.
Your forehead may feel tight or slightly numb for a few weeks to a few months as the nerves heal, which is completely normal.
A brow lift raises the eyebrows, which often naturally pulls up some of the upper eyelid skin. However, if you have significant excess eyelid skin, a blepharoplasty should be performed concurrently.
No hair is shaved. For an endoscopic lift, the surgeon makes tiny incisions hidden completely within the hairline, taking care to preserve the surrounding hair follicles.
Pain is generally minimal. Most patients experience a feeling of tightness, mild soreness, and occasional headaches, which are easily managed with standard pain relievers.
You must sleep with your head elevated on 2 to 3 pillows for the first 1 to 2 weeks. This crucial step helps minimize swelling and bruising around the eyes and forehead.
Anti-wrinkle injection can provide a temporary, subtle “chemical brow lift” lasting 3 to 4 months. A surgical brow lift provides a much more significant, structural, and permanent elevation.
It is common for bruising and swelling from the forehead to travel downward around the eyes and cheeks. This typically resolves within 10 to 14 days.
