Brow Lift

Softening a heavy brow line, without surgery.

What is a Brow Lift?

Support and lift, above the eyes.

A thread Brow Lift places fine threads to lift and support the brow area, softening the appearance of a heavy or drooping brow line without surgery. It's a quick, in-clinic procedure suited to patients wanting a subtle change to brow position.

At FMAC, the Brow Lift is assessed and delivered by Dr Gerald Tan, who will assess your brow position and facial structure at consultation before recommending a treatment plan.

How it works

A quick lift, precisely placed.

Fine threads are inserted beneath the skin above the brow to provide mechanical support and a subtle lift, softening the appearance of heaviness along the brow line. The procedure is typically quick, performed under local anaesthesia in a single in-clinic visit.

Is a Brow Lift safe?
It is a doctor-performed procedure, typically carried out under local anaesthesia. Dr Gerald Tan assesses your brow position and suitability individually before every treatment, and will discuss any risks specific to your case.
Does it hurt?

When will I see results?
The lifted brow position is generally visible once initial swelling settles, and is typically maintained for several months. Results vary between individuals.
