A Brow Lift is performed to elevate the
eyebrows to a more normal and youthful position, remove forehead wrinkles,
and decrease muscle activity in the forehead.
Coronal Brow Lift
This procedure is the oldest and most reliable method in brow lift surgery.
Coronal brow lifts are aimed at people who are looking to raise their brow
line. The procedure involves making a long incision from ear to ear. Through
this incision, your surgeon can alter the muscles (frontalis, procerus, and
corrugators) that cause horizontal forehead wrinkles and scowling. The
surgeon then proceeds to lift the forehead flap up and removes excess skin,
about a 1-2 cm strip of your scalp. The remaining scalp is sewed back
together.
The procedure lengthens the forehead and raises the hairline as
the forehead is lifted. This operation is usually performed as on an out
patient basis with the procedure lasting anywhere from 45 to 120 minutes.
Anesthesia is usually a combination of local and perhaps general anesthetics
and sedation. |

Endoscopic Brow Lift
This recent procedure is quickly superseding coronal brow lift as the method
of choice, as this procedure essentially produces the same result albeit
with smaller incisions and subsequent lower side effects and faster
recovery. The procedure involves creating 3-6 small incisions to allow
entrance of an endoscope so the surgeon can see the underlying muscle and
observe the progress of the procedure. Appropriate alterations are made to
the muscles under view, and also the surgeon can lift your forehead, but
does not remove the excess scalp. Finally, endo lifts, like coronal lifts,
raise your hairline, but (unlike coronal lifts) they do not cause temporary
numbness on top of your head. This procedure is performed on an outpatient
basis with the procedure lasting from 30 to 90 minutes. Local or general
anesthetic is employed in combination with sedation.
Lateral Brow Lift
This simple procedure targets only the outer brow, and is ideally suited to
prospective patients who are only concerned with the drooping of the ends of
the eyebrows. During a lateral brow lift, incisions are placed in the
hairline at the temples towards the sides of the face. The lateral brow lift
removes excess skin, lifting the outer corners of the forehead. This
procedure is performed on an outpatient lasting from 20-60 minutes. Local
anesthetic with light sedation is normally employed.
Mini Brow Lift
A mini brow lift is a minimally invasive brow lift that helps to tighten the
skin and muscles in the forehead. It targets the same areas as the coronal
and endoscopic brow lift procedures, except it is for patients whose frown
lines and drooping brow are not as pronounced. The procedure involves making
small incisions usually no longer than two inches that are hidden behind the
hairline. Surgeons can disconnect the fibrous connections of the brow from
the skull beneath. This allows the forehead skin to be pulled back and
excised to adjust the smoothness of the forehead. The procedure is performed
on an outpatient basis with the operation usually lasting 45 to 90 minutes.
Local or general anesthetic is employed in combination with sedation.
