Lateral Brow Reset / Brow Lift
Subtle Elevation and Upper Facial Rejuvenation
The lateral brow plays an important role in the overall appearance of the eyes and upper face.
Over time, brow descent and loss of structural support can contribute to heaviness of the upper eyelids, hooding, and a tired or aged appearance around the eyes.
A lateral brow reset / brow lift is designed to restore subtle elevation and improve upper facial balance while maintaining natural expression and facial harmony.
At You Are Beautiful, brow procedures are approached conservatively and strategically to avoid an over-elevated or unnatural appearance.
A Personalized Surgical Approach
Every patient’s brow anatomy and aging pattern are unique.
During your consultation, Dr. Jae Kim evaluates:
- Brow position
- Upper eyelid heaviness
- Skin elasticity
- Facial balance
- Degree of brow descent
- Overall upper facial structure
This allows for a customized treatment plan designed to create balanced, natural-looking rejuvenation.
Depending on your anatomy and goals, a lateral brow reset is commonly performed in conjunction with upper blepharoplasty to create more comprehensive upper facial rejuvenation and improve long-term results.
Together, these procedures can restore a more refreshed, open, and supported appearance to the upper face while maintaining natural facial harmony.
What a Lateral Brow Reset / Brow Lift Can Address
- Lateral brow descent
- Heavy or hooded upper eyelids
- Tired or aged appearance around the eyes
- Upper facial heaviness

The goal of a lateral brow reset is subtle refinement—not dramatic elevation.
Every surgical plan is designed to:
- Preserve natural expression

- Avoid an over-pulled appearance
- Create balanced upper facial rejuvenation
The Recovery Process
Most patients experience:
- Swelling

The brow position continues to soften and settle naturally as healing progresses.
