Would a brow lift also make my forehead look a little smaller ?

Question

Hey I've wanted an surgical eyebrow lift for quite a while now, my eyes are abit droopy and my eyebrows are a bit low. I was just wondering if an eyebrow lift makes the forehead look a little smaller, my forehead isn't that big but it's still big. Also my eyes are abit uneven, one is bigger than the other. People said it's not noticeable in real life but in photos eg passport photos they are. Any ideas on how I can sort this ? Thanks for any answers !

hello eveyzA Brow Lift (also known as a Forehead Lift or an Upper Face Lift) is a surgical procedure designed to lift the brow and eliminate wrinkles on the forehead. People with droopy or sagging brows can have a sad, angry, or tired appearance; a brow lift can make that person look more happy and energetic.

Thank you for your question. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
Best wishes,

Without any photo, it will be very difficult to make an accurate assessment. Generally, browlift does make the forehead appear a little smaller, however, it might not be the best option for you if the position of the brow relative to your eyes are not too close. With regards to your eyes, based on your descriptions, you may have a ptosis, and could surgically be corrected using blepharoplasty procedure. Your best course f action would be to schedule an appointment with  board certified plastic surgeon of your choice for an in-person examination and a detailed discussion of your surgical options.

From your description an Irregular Trichiophytic Hairline Incision technique is an excellent option for you.

Richard W. Fleming, MD (retired) · Answer

We described the Irregular Trichiophytic Hairline Incision technique many years age for patients like you. With this approach the incision at the hairline enables us to raise the brows and simultaneously adjust the hairline to simultaneously reduce a large forehead. Hair will grow through and in front of the incision so the patient has total freedom of styling.
