Brow & Forehead Lift
WOOA Plastic Surgery is in HM Tower on Gangnam-daero, close to Sinnonhyeon and Gangnam stations. As a government-approved centre for international patients, we offer free online consultations, native-level interpreters and 24-hour urgent care support.
At WOOA, the forehead lift is one of the surgical lifting options offered alongside the SMAS facelift and neck lift. It targets the upper third of the face, where lost elasticity lets the forehead, brows and eyelids sag together.

What Is a Forehead Lift?
When the forehead loses its firmness, the whole upper face drops: the brows sit lower, the eyelids feel heavier and forehead lines deepen. In a forehead lift, WOOA’s surgeons carefully separate the galea layer of tissue and lift it, so upper-face wrinkles and eyelid sagging can be improved in a single operation. The plan is adjusted to each patient’s needs.
Why Choose WOOA for a Forehead Lift?
WOOA brings 20 years of lifting experience to every surgery:
- Dedicated Lifting Team: One-to-one surgery by a dedicated team, with no proxy surgeons.
- Natural Expression: Lifting is planned to keep your natural facial movement rather than a tight, startled look.
- Safety First: An anesthesiologist on site for every surgery, disposable instruments and a university-hospital-level safety system.
- Endoscopic Precision: Detailed surgery using endoscopy, followed by step-by-step aftercare.
Who Is a Good Candidate for a Forehead Lift?
A forehead lift may be worth discussing if you:
- Have brows and upper eyelids that have dropped with age.
- Are bothered by forehead wrinkles.
- Feel your upper face looks heavy or tired.
- Want the upper face addressed together with other lifting procedures.
Recovery and Aftercare
Swelling and bruising are usually strongest in the first 48 hours and settle gradually over 3–6 weeks. Any bandage or tape placed on the forehead stays on until the clinic team removes it, and a tight or numb feeling can last for up to six months. Follow-up visits with your surgeon are an essential part of recovery.
