An internal brow lift is a minimally invasive procedure designed to subtly elevate the brows without the need for additional external incisions. This technique is often performed in conjunction with upper eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) and is ideal for patients seeking gentle refinement of their brow position.

By addressing mild drooping, an internal brow lift enhances the natural contours of the upper face while maintaining a discreet and seamless approach.
