Should I have a forehead lift or upper eyelid surgery?

Overview

Facial cosmetic surgery can do wonders in enhancing your appearance and confidence, giving you a brighter and more youthful appearance.  Since a forehead lift and upper eyelid surgery can both lead to an alert and refreshed look around the eyes, you may wonder if either a forehead lift or an eyelid surgery is best for you.  There are general indications for each procedure, and other times there may be indication you’ll benefit from both; but in short, the answer can only be determined through a private consultation and examination with your specialized cosmetic surgeon.

Indications

A forehead lift is also known as a browlift or eyebrow lift, and it helps many to achieve more youthful features by smoothing creases, reducing frown lines, and elevating the brow line to its appropriate position.  The small incision forehead lift, as practiced by Dr. Steinsapir, has revolutionized the way we approach forehead lifts and the results achieved.  A couple decades ago the “open forehead lift” was standard but offered less natural results, often a harsher look, and a lengthy recovery period; whereas today the endoscopic or “small incision” or “closed” forehead lift is regarded as one of the most important cosmetic surgeries.

In some cases, a forehead lift may be performed in combination with upper eyelid surgery, which is also called a “lidlift.”   Combination surgery is not just for a more comprehensive improvement.  Combination surgery is often performed to optimize the overall cosmetic appearance.  This avoids having to push a single approach to the point where the results are less than ideal or natural.

Once upper eyelid surgery is commonly indicated when there is excess fat deposits and loose skin crowding around the eyes, weighing them down and creating a tired or drooping appearance.  Now upper eyelid surgery is also used to correct small amounts of eyelid ptosis, strengthen the support for the eyelashes to address lash ptosis.  The goal is preservation of upper eyelid volume with the retention of the upper eyelid fold.  Skeletonization of the upper eyelid is still too common an outcome of upper eyelid surgery and Dr. Steinsapir advocates for the preservation of upper eyelid structure to avoid a surgical look.

An Individualized Approach

Both a heavy brow and forehead concerns, as well as this extra tissue around the eyes can detract from your appearance, it’s a very good question to ask whether you might benefit from a forehead lift or lidlift.  The right approach for you will depend on the root cause of your concern, which an experienced oculofacial surgeon can help you determine.  The importance of this individual consultation and physical examination is paramount, as a successful surgery with natural results comes from having a plan that is specifically designed for you.

Please call us today to schedule a no-risk consultation with Dr. Steinsapir, who is an international leader in minimally invasive cosmetic facial procedures–including the forehead lift, facelift, and eyelid surgery–with particular attention to how the entire face interacts with the eyes, our most expressive feature.  By consulting with the best, you’ll receive answers and finally achieve the look you desire.

Upper blepharoplasty made my eyelids heavier and the skin wrinkled. What is going on?

Dr. Steinsapir specializes in fixing unsatisfactory eyelid surgery.  As a fellowship trained oculoplastic and cosmetic surgeon, and a board certified ophthalmologist, Dr. Steinsapir is experienced in working closely with his patients to create a personalized treatment plan.  If you are experiencing eyelid ptosis and crepey (wrinkled) skin following upper blepharoplasty, it may be that your original surgeon did not have the proper experience to successfully perform your upper blepharoplasty.

Crepey Skin

When performing upper blepharoplasty, simply removing extra skin is not enough to create a desirable outcome.  Successful blepharoplasty requires what Dr. Steinsapir calls a ‘structured’ blepharoplasty.  It is essential to properly support the upper eyelid skin to avoid crepey upper eyelid―platform skin that simply won’t hold makeup.  To correct this problem, your surgeon will need to remove skin from below the upper eyelid crease and anchor the eyelid platform skin and underlying muscle to the levator tendon, which raises the upper eyelid.  This places the upper eyelid skin on a slight stretch resulting in a smooth platform for makeup.

An experienced and skilled surgeon can address crepey upper eyelid skin after unsatisfactory upper blepharoplasty with a carefully planned excision of the excess skin left on the eyelid platform.  With the eyelid open, the upper eyelid skin is anchored to the levator tendon to create a long lasting adhesion to the eyelid elevator.  Recovery is usually somewhat shorter than standard upper blepharoplasty.

An anchor blepharoplasty is an important part of any comprehensive eyelid surgery. This part of your procedure specifically addresses loose skin and drooping eyelashes on the upper eyelid platform.  Excess, wrinkled or loose skin here can give you a tired appearance associated with eyelash ptosis and crepey eyelid platform skin.

While ideally anchor blepharoplasty is a part of every blepharoplasty, unspecialized or less skilled surgeons may not be comfortable offering this important aspect of treatment.  Anchor blepharoplasty is a very technical skill that requires great precision and specialized expertise.  Without great experience, education and an artistic skill, your cosmetic doctor may have difficulty performing an anchor blepharoplasty as part of your upper blepharoplasty; unfortunately, in these cases you may find yourself disappointed after you heal and wish your eyes appeared more alert.

Heavy eyelids

Heavy eyelids following upper blepharoplasty are often the result of a pre-surgical condition that your surgeon failed to address during you consultations.  Before you underwent blepharoplasty, you presumably already had heavy lids and heavy brows.  The brain compensates for the heavy eyebrow by activating the frontalis muscle, the forehead elevator.  The forehead lifts the eyebrow until the skin in the upper eyelid no longer rests on the upper eyelashes.

Clinically, this situation can be detected by looking for lines in the forehead and an abnormally elevated eyebrow.  When upper blepharoplasty is performed in this setting, the excess skin in the upper eyelid is removed. This reduces the amount of forehead muscle activation that is needed to keep the upper eyelid skin off the upper eyelashes.  The forehead relaxes and the eyebrows come down. The net result is that it appears that almost nothing was done surgically.  Of course the forehead is smoother but if the objective was to make the eyes brighter by clearing space above the eyelashes, the net effect can be disappointing.  Under these circumstances the best option is to perform a forehead lift in conjunction with the eyelid surgery.

What should I expect with my forehead surgery?

Forehead lift surgery, also referred to as a brow lift or eyebrow lift, is designed to achieve a younger, more refreshed look by smoothing the forehead, reducing frown lines, and elevating the eyebrow line position.  In some cases, it’s preferred over upper eyelid surgery for achieving rejuvenation.  Although the forehead lift elevates the eyebrows, it differs from eyelid surgery because eyelid surgery deals with the height of the crease, the crease structure, and eyelid and lash ptosis.  Although eyelid surgery can freshen your look as well, the forehead lift addresses one of the focal points of your face–one that can make the difference between looking tired and run down and looking youthful and refreshed.  In some instances, combining a brow lift with eyelid surgery will provide the total facial rejuvenation you are seeking.

Different types of forehead surgery

There are three major types of cosmetic forehead lifts; endoscopic, also called closed forehead lift, open forehead lift, and thread, or suture lift.  Of these three types, endoscopic forehead surgery is the safest, most effective, and most natural-appearing surgical solution.  Both the open and closed forehead lifts are long-lasting, with the open forehead lift showing no clear advantage in any area and some clear disadvantages.  Healing time for the endoscopic forehead lift is about five times faster, so you’ll see improvements sooner, and your risk of forehead lift complications is greatly reduced.

The thread lift, or suture lift is often advertised as a cheap alternative to the facelift.  The thread lift is a procedure in which a barbed suture is threaded through the face.  This is supposed to lift the face with minimal surgery.  It costs less than a facelift, and sometimes recovery time is shorter, but this procedure doesn’t last and can have associated complications.  Most cosmetic surgeons do not perform thread lifts because they feel that they are ineffective.  For cosmetic purposes, Dr. Steinsapir primarily performs endoscopic forehead lifts, or closed forehead lift.  The endoscopic forehead lift offers many advantages to other alternatives.

Where is surgery commonly performed?

A forehead lift, whether open or closed is a surgical procedure and cannot be performed during an in-office visit.  Surgery is typically performed in an outpatient surgery center.  Dr. Steinsapir performs this procedure at the UCLA Outpatient Surgery Center where he is on staff as an Associate Clinical Professor and Attending Surgeon.  An endoscopic forehead lift requires intravenous sedation but general anesthesia is typically not needed.  This means that you have surgery with minimal drug exposure contributing to a faster recovery.

What is the typical recovery course and physical restrictions?

Swelling and bruising following an endoscopic forehead lift can last for several weeks.  However, most women find that after 7 to 10 days and a little makeup, they can go out and about without calling attention to themselves.  Most men find they can return to their work routine without makeup at 7 to 10 days.

Endoscopic forehead lifts involve a relatively short recovery process and patients usually experience minimal discomfort.  Smaller incisions mean less healing and a faster recovery and is associated with few complications compared to the open forehead lift technique.  Numbness of the scalp, which was universal with the open forehead lift, is rare with the endoscopic forehead lift.  There is very little if any hair loss with a small incision forehead lift.

What are some common complications and how are they addressed?

An endoscopic forehead lift offers faster healing time and fewer negative effects like scalp numbness, hair loss, or a long scar.  Although a few who insist on continuing to perform the open forehead lift may say that the resulting scar from the open forehead lift can be “hidden” underneath your hair, the reality is that this breaks up the natural hair growth pattern.  The untrained eye will recognize that something looks slightly “off” about your hair line―even beveled incisions that allow some hair to grow through the scar can look wrong.  In hair grafting circles, this is referred to as “compression.”  Natural hairlines do not have compression.  Many who have had this procedure also do not like the long term numbness that results from cutting large sensory nerve in the scalp.  The open coronal forehead lift can also be associated with permanent hair loss along the incision line.  These complications are not seen with the small incisions used for the endoscopic forehead lift.

What is the time frame before full recovery?

Following endoscopic forehead lifts, the forehead needs to be supported while the body heals.  This support is called brow fixation and there are several options for brow fixation.  The two most common options in this practice are the Coapt endobrow Endotine or microscrew fixation.  The Coapt device is a small plate that is used in pairs.  The plate is fixed to the forehead bone and supports the forehead.  The device is completely covered and over time will dissolve.  The other method for supporting the forehead after surgery involves three or four small microscrews that poke out of the scalp.  A small staple behind each post supports the forehead.  The posts and the staples are removed about three weeks after surgery.  Again, these are hidden in the hair and are generally not noticeable to others.  Dr. Steinsapir allows a return to the gym in 10-14 days, however even the day after surgery you will be encouraged for go out for a walk.  Most find that they can resume business by telephone, email, and computer the day after surgery.

Is Dr. Steinsapir available for a personal consultation regarding this surgery?

Dr. Steinsapir believes strongly that there is not substitute for a personal consultation to determine if a particular surgery is right for you.  Dr. Steinsapir performs this consultation himself so he can get to know your medical history and personal concerns.  He will perform a detailed examination.  After assessing the totality of your personal situation, he will discuss with you his opinions, concerns, and recommendations.  This will include a through discussion of risks, benefits, alternatives, and likelihood of success.  Call today for your personal consultation.

Eyelid Surgery and Permanent Eye Makeup

Permanent eye makeup is a tattoo that is applied to the eyelid margin to simulate eye liner, or along the eyebrow to fill-in or darken the brows.  These services are very popular, but if you are considering permanent eye makeup and are also considering eyelid surgery, Dr. Steinsapir recommends that you have a surgical consultation before receiving permanent makeup.  Permanent eye makeup is a tattoo, and therefore is relatively permanent; “relatively” permanent because over time the tattoo will lose color and after a few years you may need the color reinforced.  Generally eyelid surgery will have an effect on the shape of the eyelids and on eyebrow position.  For this reason, if you are considering doing both services, have the permanent makeup after you have healed from eyelid surgery.

I already have permanent makeup, can I have eyelid surgery?

If you already have permanent makeup, this won’t prevent you from having eyelid surgery.  Generally the permanent makeup is placed within the eyelashes and eyelid surgery typically does not require an incision along the lashes.  Occasionally, the permanent lower eyelid makeup extends beyond the lower eyelid lashes.  The portion of the eye line that extends beyond the lower eyelid lashes may be affected by lower eyelid surgery, but a skilled surgeon can work around this issue and many lower eyelid procedures do not require a lower eyelid incision.

I have permanent eyebrow makeup, can I have a facelift?

Permanent makeup for the eyebrow generally fills-in or darkens your existing eyebrows.  As a result, a forehead lift that moves the eyebrow will also cause your permanent eyebrow makeup to move.  Occasionally, a woman has plucked her thin eyebrow hairs and penciled in a brow at a higher location.  Before considering having this eyebrow location marked permanently with a tattoo, Dr. Steinsapir recommends a cosmetic consultation.  In some cases, an endoscopic forehead lift may correct the location of your eyebrows and improve your appearance and make your eyebrows appear more natural.  For this reason, before you have your eyebrows tattooed in a higher location, consider having a surgical consultation for an endoscopic forehead lift.

Can I have my eyes and forehead lift at the same time?

As an experienced oculoplastic and facial cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Steinsapir often combines eyelid surgery with a forehead lift for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation.  However, every individual’s needs differ and a consultation and examination by a cosmetic surgeon is necessary to determine the extent of the procedure required.  Before you decide on a surgeon to perform any procedure, attend a consultation to learn how the surgeon will address your individual goals and his or her strategy for achieving optimal results.

The benefits of a forehead lift

In some instances, a forehead lift alone can freshen your face and provide you with the youthful appearance you are seeking.  The forehead lift elevates the eyebrows, reduces frown lines, and smoothes your forehead.  Eyelid surgery deals with the height of the crease, the crease structure, and eyelid and lash ptosis.  Although this can freshen your look as well, the forehead lift addresses one of the focal points of your face – one that can make the difference between looking tired and run down and looking youthful and refreshed.

A forehead lift can freshen your appearance

Dr. Steinsapir only performs endoscopic forehead lift, or closed forehead lift, as opposed to the more traditional open forehead lift.  The endoscopic forehead lift offers faster healing time and fewer negative effects like scalp numbness, hair loss, or a long scar.

The benefits of a lid lift

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery or a lid lift, allows the surgeon to remove excess skin and fatty tissue that create the appearance of droopy, deflated eyelids.  As the fat deposits, loose skin, and drooping of the eyelids typically occur because of aging, this procedure can reverse the effects of time to restore a youthful, refreshed, and rested appearance.  Upper eyelid surgery, because it is a versatile procedure, can also accomplish other goals, such as creating an upper eyelid crease.

How will the surgeon know which procedure I need?

The primary issue in determining whether you need a lid lift, forehead lift, or both is the type of eyebrow support and shape you need.  Some individuals need just a forehead lift.  Your surgeon will assess the need to address upper eyelid issues.  In some instances people will have both eyebrow ptosis and excess upper eyelid skin and fullness and benefit from both sets of issues being addressed at the same time.

Can I exercise my facial muscle for an improved tone?

Exercise and diet are essential for a healthy lifestyle, but it’s important to recognize their limitations.  Not every condition can be cured by exercise, vitamin supplements or fad diets, especially when the problem is not a result of poor nutrition or inactivity.  We absolutely encourage you to exercise moderately and eat well, but we admit to being skeptical of the arising claim that exercising facial muscles can restore youth and beauty to one’s face.  This is an unproven method, and when one considers that they are likely still using their facial muscles just as much as they were ten years ago, it becomes apparent that their aging looks are unlikely due to facial inactivity.

It’s appealing to believe that we can resolve all of our concerns through exercise, and while research shows that exercise does benefit our health in many ways, it also shows that further medical treatment is required for many conditions.  Just as someone with presbyopia cannot exercise to regain the ability to focus for reading vision, it’s not likely that you’ll be able to reverse the effects of age, time, gravity, and stress by wiggling your face or by having electrical currents stimulate your facial muscle to contract.

There are many types of facial cosmetic surgery and other treatment that can help you obtain the result you need if your doctor determines that you are a suitable candidate.  These range from minimally invasive treatments with little-to-no downtime like BOTOX and undereye Restylane to surgeries like the facelift and plastic eyelid surgery including eyelid reconstruction, which give dramatic yet natural results to individuals with far-reaching concerns.  While it is impossible to know which treatment, if any, is most suitable for you before a private consultation with the best facial cosmetic surgeon for you, you can be confident that there are a wide range of treatments that an expert can custom-tailor to meet your needs.

As a specialist in facial cosmetic treatments, Dr. Steinsapir has treated many individuals who first explored a variety of “natural solutions” for their aesthetic facial concerns.  Frustrated when they saw no results, they eventually consulted with Dr. Steinsapir and opted for proven treatment methods that provide dramatic yet natural results.  This human tendency to pursue unproven treatments is not a fault; it is normal to want to independently resolve a problem using the least invasive and most economical method possible.

Dr. Steinsapir is focused on your personal goals and comfort level.  Dr. Steinsapir always asks you questions about your specific goals, individual situation, and preferences so that he can plan a solution that is aligned what you want, so you can feel comfortable knowing that you are ultimately in control of your treatment plan.  Dr. Steinsapir very much believes in using the least invasive method for accomplishing a particular goal; for example, he does not recommend a forehead lift when a BOTOX treatment for wrinkles will will meet your goals – and he is a leader in his field of minimally invasive solutions.

If you are seeking a proven treatment with an experienced facial plastic surgeon with extensive training in oculofacial plastic surgery, we invite you to a personal consultation with Dr. Steinsapir today.  Dr. Steinsapir is honest, friendly, and can talk to you about customized treatments that give you the results you seek by addressing your specific needs and unique facial features.  Please call us today to schedule a time when you can speak with Dr. Steinsapir.

I had an open forehead lift in the past. Am I a candidate for having my forehead revised endoscopically?

There are two general reasons why people with a history of an open forehead lift (also called a coronal forehead lift) later seek an endoscopic forehead lift (also called a closed forehead lift).  Some seek an endoscopic forehead lift because time has passed and their surgery benefits have worn off over the years.  Another reason people seek further improvement is because they have heard of the of the endoscopic forehead lift benefits over the open forehead lift, and they now seek improved results.  The good news is that even if you’ve previously had an open forehead lift, the endoscopic forehead lift can still benefit you.

Refreshing Your Appearance

The forehead lift is a long-lasting solution for improving your features, but like any cosmetic surgery, it can’t stop you from aging or experiencing the damaging effects of gravity and sun.  You can expect to enjoy your forehead lift results for five to ten years.  The long-lasting benefits of the forehead lift include smoothing the forehead wrinkles and frown lines for a refined, youthful appearance.  In time, these results will not be as pronounced as they once were.  Why?  Because you are still getting older and subject to the stress and everyday aging that we all experience.  Surgery does not stop the clock, so you may want to consider additional treatment in coming years to refresh your results.

Closed vs. Open Forehead Lift

Perhaps you had your first forehead lift many years ago when the open technique was the standard.  Or perhaps you recently had an open forehead lift that you feel needs revision.  Today the closed forehead lift represents advanced medical technology that has greatly improved forehead lift outcomes.  If you are thinking about refreshing your appearance again, it’s important to realize that you should still go with the best in medicine and cosmetic surgery today.  You are not limited to the open forehead lift.  In fact, the closed forehead lift gives you many advantages over the open forehead lift and is the safer choice.

The closed forehead lift provides superior results with hidden, minimal scarring and much faster healing time—about five times faster!  The closed forehead lift is additionally associated with fewer forehead lift complications and a more natural hairline.  Today the endoscopic forehead lift leads as the best research-based and time-tested forehead lift solution.

If you think you may benefit from a new forehead lift today, be sure to pursue the endoscopic forehead lift rather than the open forehead lift.  The open forehead lift is now considered an outdated procedure although some older surgeons and their protégés still insist on performing this procedure today.  Attaining the skills needed to perform a well-designed endoscopic forehead lift presents a higher learning curve than is needed for the open forehead lift, which is the biggest reason why some surgeons still go by the old method.  However, today’s forward-thinking endoscopic forehead lift effectively replaced the open forehead lift twenty years ago.

Seeking Revised Forehead Surgery

If you feel it’s time to revisit your options for cosmetic forehead treatment, seek advice from an experienced facial cosmetic surgeon with specialty in minimally invasive procedures like the endoscopic forehead lift.

Since 1993, Dr. Steinsapir has been a leader in the minimally invasive, small-incision, endoscopic “closed” forehead lift, which is now the standard of excellence in forehead lifts.  He is a world-renowned facial cosmetic surgeon in Los Angeles, widely acclaimed for his skill in revisional cosmetic surgery that balances the facial features for natural results.  To find out how a closed forehead lift with Dr. Steinsapir can transform your appearance and restore your confidence, please contact us today.
