Through small, hidden incisions in the hairline, the tissue is mobilized and repositioned upward.
The result is a discreet yet effective improvement – with no visible scarring.
The objective: a subtle lift and a refreshed, youthful gaze.

• Those experiencing a heavy or tired look despite Botox or filler

• Younger patients seeking a subtle mini-lift
• Those with good skin elasticity and no significant neck laxity

The cost of brow lifting is determined individually based on the extent of treatment.
A detailed cost estimate will be provided during your personal consultation.
Flexible financing is available through our partner Cashmed Medical Financing.
To optimally support healing after surgery, we recommend targeted micronutrients, collagen supplements, and trace elements.
These help regenerate tissue, reduce inflammation, and strengthen the immune system.
