What Is a Brow Lift?
A brow lift, or forehead lift, is a procedure that aims to raise drooping eyebrows and smooth lines in the forehead for a refreshed, youthful appearance. By removing excess skin from the top of the forehead and repositioning underlying muscles and tissue, brow lifts can resolve sagging upper eyelids and reposition the brows.
Brow lifts can help restore the appearance of:
- Eyebrows that have lost their arch
- Drooping or uneven eyebrows
- Sagging brows that cause hooded upper eyelids
- Vertical frown lines between the eyebrows
- Horizontal creases on the forehead, bridge of the nose, and between the eyes
- Furrows on the bridge of the nose
Why Consider a Brow Lift in Nashville, TN?
You might consider a brow lift if you’re bothered by a sagging or drooping appearance of your eyebrows or by horizontal forehead lines and frown lines between the eyebrows that create a tired or angry-looking appearance.
A brow lift can:
- Raise sagging eyebrows to make you look younger, more alert, and less worried

How Is a Brow Lift Done?
Brow lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia or using local anesthesia with sedation. Dr. Cash will make small, well-concealed incisions along the hairline. He then gently lifts the skin of the forehead and repositions underlying muscles and tissue. This pulls the eyebrows up and smooths lines in the forehead for a more youthful, refreshed appearance.
Brow lift surgery typically takes less than an hour.
What to Expect in Recovery
After a brow lift, you may experience some tenderness around your forehead in the first day or two, which can be relieved with pain medication. You can expect some swelling and bruising that lasts a few days to a few weeks. Once sutures have been removed and the incisions have healed, you’ll be able to hide any short-term bruising with makeup.
Dr. Cash will provide detailed instructions for self-care during recovery, when to see him for follow-up appointments, and how to reach him with any concerns. He generally recommends patients rest at home for a week to ten days before returning to work or resuming your normal activities.
For at least 2 weeks after your brow lift, it is important to avoid squinting your eyes. Wear dark sunglasses and large hats when sun exposure is unavoidable.
