Am I An Ideal Candidate For Endoscopic Brow Lift Surgery?
If you struggle with drooping eyebrows, forehead creases and wrinkles, crow’s feet, or expression lines, endoscopic brow lift surgery may be right for you. Endoscopic brow lift surgery allows patients to achieve a rejuvenated facial appearance without the extended downtime associated with traditional brow lift surgery. During your consultation for endoscopic brow lift surgery, Dr. Killingsworth and his team of plastic surgery professionals are on hand to help decide if this is the right procedure for you.
The ideal candidate for endoscopic brow lift surgery should be in good general health and a non-smoker. It’s important that patients have realistic expectations for the results of their procedure. Our team will thoroughly review your health history and discuss your aesthetic goals with you before determining whether or not you are a candidate for this procedure.
What Should I Expect During Endoscopic Brow Lift Surgery?
Before undergoing endoscopic brow lift surgery, patients will be administered anesthesia to ensure they remain comfortable throughout the entirety of the procedure. Then, several small incisions will be made directly behind the hairline. By placing the incisions here, our team of skilled facial plastic surgeons are able to hide strategically hide any scarring that may result. Then, a small camera and light are inserted into the incision on a small, thin tube. This gives our surgeons a detailed look into the quality of the face’s underlying muscles.
Using specialized tools, our facial plastic surgeons will lift the underlying skin and muscle, allowing the brows to take on a new, youthful position. Endoscopic brow lift surgery can also slightly lift the eyelids to ensure symmetrical, comprehensive results. Endoscopic brow lift surgery involves advanced surgical techniques, which is why our team of plastic surgery professionals at Astra Plastic Surgery stresses the importance of choosing an experienced brow lift surgeon.
What Should I Expect After Endoscopic Brow Lift Surgery?
After undergoing endoscopic brow lift surgery, patients may have their incision sites dressed by our medical staff to eliminate any post-operative swelling and decrease the chance of infection. It is recommended that patients avoid any strenuous activity or exercise while recovering. Recovery times will vary per patient depending on many factors.
Following endoscopic brow lift surgery, patients may experience mild bruising, swelling, and irritation. In order to reduce these symptoms, patients should refrain from bending over and laying down, ensuring to keep their head elevated. Before sending you home after surgery, Dr. Killingsworth and his team will provide detailed recovery instructions to help patients heal quickly and achieve their desired results.
