Eyebrow Lift London | 2 March 2025
The eyebrow and upper eyelid region play a central role in how others perceive our emotions, vitality, and age. Over time, this delicate area may begin to show signs of ageing: heaviness, drooping brows, and loss of definition. When the upper eyelid appears hooded or weighed down, it’s often the eyebrow that has descended subtly over time.
An eyebrow lift – also known as a brow lift or temporal lift – is a highly effective way to restore a more open, lifted, and youthful expression, while preserving your natural appearance. Whether on its own or combined with an eyelid lift (blepharoplasty), this procedure can dramatically improve facial harmony and refresh the look of your upper face.
What Is an Eyebrow Lift?
An eyebrow lift is a precision surgical procedure that gently elevates the brow and redefines the contour of the upper eyelid. By repositioning the brow to a more youthful location and smoothing the surrounding skin, the procedure:
– Reduces forehead and brow heaviness
– Enhances upper eyelid definition
– Reveals more of the natural eye contour
– Improves facial symmetry and expression
This subtle repositioning can restore brightness to the eyes, often leading others to comment that you look well-rested, refreshed, or naturally younger—not “operated on.”
Why Patients Choose an Eyebrow Lift
Many of our patients seek an eyebrow lift because they’re frustrated with looking tired, stern, or sad – despite feeling energetic and positive inside. Some are surprised to learn that it’s not just their eyelids contributing to a heavy appearance, but the position of the brow itself.
Common reasons for eyebrow lift surgery include:
– Sagging or drooping brows
– Hooding of the upper eyelids
– Loss of upper eyelid definition
– Desire to look more awake or youthful
– Complementary procedure to blepharoplasty
For women and men alike, the ideal brow shape is highly individual. At the Jonathan Britto Clinic, we tailor the procedure to your unique facial anatomy, gender, and aesthetic preferences, guided by Jonathan’s deep understanding of facial balance and form.
What Happens During My Eyebrow Lift Consultation?
We understand that considering any eyelid or brow lift surgery is a significant decision. It’s your face – it’s personal, visible, and meaningful. That’s why we offer a thorough, multi-step consultation process to guide you with care, discretion, and clarity.
Step 1: Discretionary Free Video Call
Your journey starts with an optional complimentary video consultation. Jonathan will introduce himself, listen to your concerns, and discuss your goals for an upper eyelid or eyebrow lift. If possible, we recommend you send selfie photographs ahead of time to medsec@jonathanbritto.com, which will be stored securely as part of your medical record. These images help Jonathan assess your brow and eyelid positioning even before meeting in person.
Step 2: In-Clinic Face-to-Face Consultation
If you wish to explore treatment further, we’ll invite you to one of our clinics in London or Essex for a detailed, private consultation. During this visit:
Step 3: Catch-Up Conversation
After reviewing the written consultation letter, Jonathan encourages you to keep a “procedure diary” on your phone. Note down any thoughts, questions, or reflections you have as they arise. A follow-up call or in-person meeting will allow you to ask questions and allow Jonathan to offer any additional insights into your personalised plan.
Step 4: Ongoing Access
In truth, our door is always open. Whether you prefer to connect in person or remotely, Jonathan and our team are happy to support you every step of the way. This relationship-based approach is part of what makes our patients feel truly cared for.
In many cases, an eyebrow lift is performed alongside upper eyelid blepharoplasty. While the eyebrow lift addresses the position and shape of the brow, blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat from the eyelid itself, enhancing the eye contour and improving vision if droopiness is severe.
Together, these procedures can dramatically rejuvenate the upper face, creating a brighter, more youthful and balanced appearance.
