Will A Brow Lift Leave Visible Scarring?

Nov 28, 2019 | Brow Lift | 0 comments

As you age, the skin and soft tissues around your eyes lose elasticity causing the brows to droop. A brow lift, or forehead rejuvenation, is a cosmetic procedure that can erase years from your face by reducing the wrinkle lines across the forehead and frown lines between the eyes. A brow lift also improves the area around the eyes by raising sagging brows that are hooding the upper eyelids. A brow lift can be done alone or combined with other facial procedures, such as eyelid surgery, to boost your self-confidence and restore a refreshed, more youthful appearance. The procedure poses various risks, including scarring, changes in skin sensation, and asymmetry in the position of the brows. These risks are significantly reduced when a board-certified surgeon, like Dr. Correa, completes your procedure. Dr. Correa has performed many brow lift surgeries over the years and is highly skilled at creating incisions that leave you with almost imperceptible scarring.

Types of Brow Lift

Brow lift surgeries are typically completed with 1-2 hours using one of three methods.

Coronal Brow Lift

A coronal brow lift involves an incision behind your hairline, from ear to ear on the top of your head. Your forehead is then lifted into its new position. This technique is not usually done in patients with high hairlines, thin hair, or those likely to lose their hair.

Hairline Brow Lift

In a hairline brow lift, your surgeon makes an incision between the top of your forehead and hairline to remove a small amount of skin. Your hairline is not pulled back with this method.

Endoscopic Brow Lift

A more advanced, minimally invasive technique, an endoscopic brow lift consists of tiny incisions along the hairline, which result in minimal, easily concealable scarring. Additional benefits of this method include less swelling, faster recovery times, and natural-looking results.
