The Endoscopic Brow Lift: Less Invasive, Shorter Recovery Time

As you age, your face will begin to lose its elasticity and become subject to the early signs of aging. You may develop fine lines and wrinkles that cause you to look much older than you desire. It can effect how people view and interact with you on a daily basis and hinder different aspects of your life. With an endoscopic brow lift, however, you can fight back these signs of aging and reclaim your youthful good looks.

What Is an Endoscopic Brow Lift?

As you get older, the areas near the brow may start to droop and alter your appearance. This can make your face look tired, not rested, angry, and much older. Sometimes this can make you look older than you actually are and cause real damage to your social life. An endoscopic brow lift is a solution to your problems! With this lift, you can restore your youthfulness and make your face look refresh and lifted.

What to Expect From the Procedure

A brow lift should be performed in a hospital setting by a skilled professional. An endoscopic brow lift is an innovative and less invasive technique that can be used to reposition your brows. The procedure may last up to two hours max. Your surgeon will administer general anesthesia to help keep you comfortable during the surgery.

Your surgeon will make several incisions along the scalp to make an insertion point for the endoscope that allows him to see the treatment area on a TV screen. The skin near the forehead is then lifted and eyebrows are repositioned. The excess skin on the face is removed and the remaining skin will be tightened. The incisions will then be closed using the method discussed by your surgeon.

Recovering from the Endoscopic Brow Lift

Your face will be bandaged after the surgery to let the bruises heal faster. You will be able to remove the bandages in about three to four days after the surgery. The stitches can be removed approximately two weeks after the procedure.

The time it takes to heal depends on the individual and the extent of the surgery. You can, however, expect to resume your normal routine life within a few weeks. The complete results may take a month to show. You will see a noticeably lifted eyebrow structure and forehead, which looks completely flawless yet natural.

You may experience some minor bruising and inflamed skin after undergoing the surgery. You can also expect your face to be swollen and inflamed for a few days. This is a common occurrence, but it will subside in time.
