Regain Your Confidence with an Endoscopic Brow Lift

endoscopic brow lift near me

Lately, you’ve been noticing that the lines on your forehead that used to appear when you raised your eyebrows or frowned persist even when your face is at rest. You’re satisfied with the look of the rest of your face, but those lines are bothering you. Or your brow may have started to sag, which makes you look tired or angry even when you’re not. You may also have deep folds between your eyebrows, on the bridge of your nose or furrows between your eyes that make you look older than you are. The good news is you might be a candidate for an endoscopic brow lift. 

This is a type of facelift where only the skin and tissue of your brow are treated. Now, doctors can perform endoscopic brow lifts, which is a technique that only requires tiny incisions and specialized surgical tools. This lessens your recovery time and lowers the risk of a more open surgery. Below is more information about endoscopic brow lift.

First, You’ll Need a Consultation

As with any other cosmetic surgery, you’ll need to consult with our plastic surgeon before your brow lift. You’ll tell the surgeon what you want from the surgery, and the surgeon will examine your brow and face and tell you what options are available for your brow lift and what the most likely outcome of an endoscopic brow lift could be. They’ll also discuss any risks and complications.

The surgeon will take your medical history and ask you to discontinue medications or supplements that can delay your healing from the operation. They’ll also tell you to stop smoking and drinking alcohol at least two weeks before the operation. The surgeon or nurse will also tell you what to do in the hours before your operation. You might have to fast after midnight, for example.

The Procedure

Our surgeon marks the areas on your brow to guide the incisions. They may also make marks on your brow and temples during the surgery to remind them of where the specific muscles in your brow are. They’ll then insert an endoscope, a tiny camera, beneath the skin of your brow. Guided by the images they see on a monitor, the surgeon will operate with miniaturized surgical tools. 

Just before the operation is over, the surgeon anchors your forehead muscles to the bone of your forehead, then closes the surgical wounds with staples or sutures. The doctor then wraps your head in a compression bandage to keep down the swelling. You’ll need to wear this bandage between 24 and 48 hours. An endoscopic brow lift will raise your forehead enough that you will appear younger and more well-rested, but it won’t give you a “pulled-back” appearance.

After the Endoscopic Brow Lift

After the surgery, you’ll be taken to a recovery room and monitored for a while. Then, you can go home after the nurse instructs you in how to take care of your surgical wounds and gives you a date for a follow-up appointment with our surgeon. 

Make sure that you’ve arranged for someone to drive you home after your operation and stay with you for at least the first night. You should also have prepared your home for your recuperation. This might mean cooking meals ahead and putting them in the fridge, buying pillows to prop up against your headboard of your bed and making sure that objects you need are placed within reach on your bedside table. The doctor will have prescribed painkillers and antibiotics, and it’s a good idea to get the prescriptions filled before the surgery and have them available when you get home.

As with any surgery, there will be some swelling and bruising that will go away after about two weeks. The area around the surgical wounds may also itch and feel numb, but this is also temporary. The doctor will take out the sutures or staples in about a week to 10 days. If you were given absorbable stitches, they’ll simply dissolve.

It’s important that you rest and recover for one to two weeks. The nurse will have told you to avoid wearing a hat, which can interfere with the healing of your surgical wounds. You should also keep the incision sites as dry as you can, even if you take a shower or bath. After a few months you’ll be able to see the results of your endoscopic brow lift. The scars will be all but invisible, and like the vast majority of people who’ve had this operation, you’ll relish your fresh, youthful and alert appearance.

What is an Endoscopic Brow Lift?

endoscopic brow lift

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a minimally-invasive surgical procedure to correct drooping eyelids, vertical and horizontal forehead folds and frown lines that occur around the eyes. There are two types of brow lift procedures, traditional and endoscopic. The latter involves the use of an endoscope to locate excess fatty tissue and muscles. In some cases, patients benefit from a lift procedure if some of the subdermal tissue is removed or repositioned.

The endoscopic brow lift isn’t a one-size-fits-all treatment. A customized surgical procedure is designed based on the patient’s forehead appearance, the severity of frown lines and eyelid droops and the amount of muscle that lies beneath the forehead skin. We suggest a consultation, during which we will examine the forehead and recommend the lift procedure that has the best chance of a positive result.

The Endoscopic Brow Lift Procedure

If this type of surgery is agreed upon, the forehead skin is pulled back. The scope is then inserted, and the camera is connected to a monitor. The doctor can see where excess muscle tissue exists and if any fatty tissue is causing wrinkling or skin folding. Using a special instrument, the doctor removes some of the muscle tissue that causes severe frown lines when the patient makes certain expressions.

Recovery Time

Since an endoscopic brow lift is usually done by making smaller incisions, the recovery time is often less than when a traditional brow lift is performed. Special instructions are given as to how to clean and care for the affected area. Recovery time following an endoscopic lift treatment is usually about two weeks, although the client can resume work activities almost immediately.

Advantages of an Endoscopic Lift

There’s little risk of visible scarring with an endoscopic brow lift procedure. Unlike filler injections, a brow lift doesn’t plump the area with chemicals, but rather smooths the skin by repositioning or removing excess material. An endoscopic brow lift isn’t a permanent solution to dropping eyelids or forehead folds, but the results are long-lasting, with many patients reporting positive results lasting for up to five years.

Get the Facts

If you are interested in how an endoscopic brow lift can make you look years younger, make an appointment at Tarola Plastic Surgery, with offices in Murfreesboro and Hendersonville. We’ll gladly answer any questions you may have about this popular cosmetic treatment. Contact us today to schedule your consultation.

What are the Benefits of an Endoscopic Brow Lift?

endoscopic brow lift

As we age, the structures of our face begin to sag and droop. When this happens in the brow area, it leaves a person looking older, grumpier, and sadder. Many have turned to an endoscopic brow lift as a way of correcting this sagging and giving their face a more youthful appearance.

What is an Endoscopic Brow Lift?

As technology has advanced, surgeons have been able to provide care for their patients in a less invasive way. One key to providing less invasive surgery has been the endoscope, as well as the instruments that accompany it. An endoscopic brow lift allows a patient to walk away with stellar results while at the same time avoiding the long recovery time that often accompanies a traditional brow lift.

The first step in the endoscopic brow lift procedure is anesthesia. Your surgeon will provide you with medicine that will make you more comfortable throughout the procedure. He will offer either general anesthesia or intravenous sedation.

Next, three to five small incisions will be made along the hairline. Because of their size and location, these incisions will leave no visible scar. Using the endoscope, the surgeon can adjust everything from the hairline to the eyebrows. They can tighten muscles while at the same time smoothing the appearance of your forehead. If your eyebrows are asymmetrical, this can be addressed with this type of lift.

Once the procedure is complete, you will see some swelling and some bruising. However, you should be able to go back to your normal routine in ten days or less.

Who Are Good Candidates for a Brow Lift?

Good candidates for brow lifts are individuals who have eyebrows that sag and make them look tired or sad. They would also include individuals who have deep horizontal creases in their foreheads as well as noticeable furrows between the eyes.

Endoscopic brow surgery is right for you if you are looking to get rid of forehead wrinkles, want to elevate your eyebrows, have excessive skin that causes your eyelids to have a hooded appearance, or are interested in revitalizing the appearance of your face.

While an endoscopic brow lift will not change who you are, it could provide you with a more youthful appearance that in turn will give you the confidence to be the best person you can be. Contact Tarola Plastic Surgery to schedule a consultation today.

Brow Lift vs Endoscopic Brow Lift

Brow Lift

When you look into the mirror, you may find that you are dissatisfied with your eyebrows. They and the skin around them are beginning to droop, and restoring your youthful appearance is only one surgical procedure away. Both brow lifts and endoscopic brow lifts are options that can keep your brows from aging prematurely, but it is important to know the differences between the two techniques in order to find the one that is right for you.

The Major Difference

In many ways, traditional brow lifts and endoscopic brow lifts are the same. You will still undergo anesthesia, and you will still have a recovery period afterward. The results can be very similar as well. However, an endoscopic brow lift is considered the less invasive of the two procedures. With an endoscopic lift, a small camera is used, allowing more precise visibility of the treatment area. That is not the same with a traditional brow lift, where the incisions are more pronounced so the treatment area can be fully exposed.

Both Involve Incisions

Some people have misconceptions about what an endoscopic brow lift is. They may equate it with a laser procedure, but that is not the case. Whether you opt for a traditional brow lift or an endoscopic brow lift, you still need to have an incision. That is why anesthesia is used for both types of brow lifts. With endoscopic surgery, however, the precision of the camera reduces the size and number of incisions that must be used.

Recovery for the Procedures

Since both of the brow lift procedures involve restructuring the underlying tissues of the brow line, the recovery is about the same. You will have stitches at the incision sites, and you will need to wear bandages. The treatment site will likely be tender and possibly swollen after the procedure, which will subside as you heal.

Your Level of Comfort

Even though you know that both brow lift procedures involve incisions, you may simply have a greater level of comfort with an endoscopic brow lift because it is less invasive. If that is the case, ask our medical team about the possibility of receiving an endoscopic brow lift during your consultation.

Candidates for Brow Lift

Brow lifts are approved for those who are in good health and have no contraindicating medical conditions that could inhibit surgery and recovery. It will be determined during your first visit whether these techniques are right for you.
