Endoscopic Brow Lift (Small Incision Brow Elevation)
The eyebrows play a vital role in an individual's appearance. The descent of the eyebrow in youth or as one ages produces a tired look and causes a fullness to the upper eyelids. Physicians have devised many procedures to elevate the eyebrows in order to improve one's appearance and possibly alleviate the need to perform upper eyelid surgery.
Cosmetic eyebrow lift procedures have traditionally involved large incisions, usually from ear to ear, with extensive surgery and post-operative rehabilitation. While excellent results have been obtained with this technique, patients may develop redness, irritation, itching, and loss of hair along the large incision site. In addition, significant, although temporary, loss of sensation to the forehead and scalp may occur. Endoscopic brow elevation is the most current and state-of-the-art method of forehead and eyebrow lifting. The procedure, which is minimally invasive when compared to traditional surgery, involves making very small incisions behind the hairline and using a specialized lighting system and camera to perform surgery. With this technique, post-operative rehabilitation is simpler, and the time necessary to get back to normal daily activities is greatly reduced. Most importantly, surgical results have been extremely successful and patient satisfaction has been very high. In some patients a temporal lift can be done to stabilize the lateral brow alone. |
