Browplasty (Brow Lift) Surgery Sydney

About The Treatment - What is Browplasty?

Browplasty, also known as a brow lift or forehead lift, is a surgical procedure addressing a weakened brow. Excess skin may be removed, and underlying muscles and tissue may be repositioned. This procedure is often combined with Blepharoplasty (Eyelid surgery) to completely rejuvenate the eye and forehead area.

Candidates for Browplasty (Eyebrow Lift) Surgery

Candidates for browplasty surgery are typically healthy, non-smoking individuals, that may have one or more of the following concerns:

  • Horizontal lines across the forehead: These lines are caused by a combination of factors, including sun exposure, muscle movement, and the loss of collagen and elastin in the skin.
  • Vertical lines between the eyebrows (frown lines): Frown lines are caused by repeated muscle contractions. They can become more pronounced as the skin loses its elasticity.

Excess skin and fat deposits above the eye: Skin and fat around the eyes create a heavy  appearance,  even interfering with vision.

If you are considering browplasty (eyebrow lift) surgery, it is important to discuss your individual needs and goals. At Shape Clinic, Dr. Steven Liew and Dr Ania Smialkowski can help you determine if browplasty surgery is right for you and can develop a personalised treatment plan

Results

Over time, our eyes are affected by various factors: genetics, skin type and sun damage. Muscle layers beneath the eyelid skin weaken, fat deposits shift, and collagen begins to break down.

  • Correct excess skin on the eyes and surrounding skin.
  • Treat excess skin that has created folds and impaired the natural contour of the eyelid
