Brow Lift

Coronal Brow Lift

This safe and widely-used technique involves an incision that runs across the top of the forehead. This procedure is designed to target horizontal forehead wrinkles that make you appear as though you are scowling all the time. After the incision is made, the forehead skin is lifted. Then the surgeon can make any muscle adjustment needed under direct visualization. The scar resulting from this procedure will be well-concealed within your hair.

Endoscopic Brow Lift

In this technique, the surgeon uses an endoscope (a thin tube with a camera on the end) and special surgical instruments to adjust tissue under the skin through small incisions make in the hair line, correcting visible lines and wrinkles in the forehead. An advantage of this technique is that it requires only a few small incisions. A disadvantage is that the muscle cannot be altered, so scowl lines may return over time.

Temporal or Limited Incision Brow Lift

The temporal brow lift is a more minimal surgical procedure to improve the appearance of the outer one-third of the eyebrows and enlarge the eyes. It involves slightly longer incisions than the endoscopic lift. Incisions approximately one-inch in length are made behind the hairline above each temple. Through these incisions, the surgeon can lift and reposition tissue in the outer brow area. Temporal brow lift surgery is often performed in combination with eyelid surgery.
