FOREHEAD LIFT BENEFITS
Brow lift will make you appear years younger, which will dramatically improve your appearance.
Forehead lift involves a relatively short recovery process and patients usually experience minimal discomfort.
Smaller incision surgery means less healing and a faster recovery and is associated with few complications compared to the open 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.The small incision (also called an endoscopic) forehead lift is not associated with hair loss which was a problem with the old style open coronal forehead lift. With the small incision forehead lift, it is routine to do these surgeries on bald or balding men and the scars are virtually undetectable when healed.
The initial criticism of the endoscopic forehead lift was that the procedure did not last. These criticisms were unfounded. With 20 years experience, it is clear that the endoscopic forehead lift holds up as well as the open forehead lift.
FOREHEAD LIFT PROCESS
At the time of consultation, Dr. Steinsapir will assess you and your goals. He will determine if you are in fact a good candidate for a forehead lift. The issue is what type of eyebrow support and shape you need. Some individuals need just a forehead lift. He will assess if something needs to be done to address upper eyelid issues. Some 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.
Surgery itself is typically done at the UCLA outpatient surgery center where Dr. Steinsapir is on staff as an Associate Clinical Professor and Attending Surgeon. The procedure 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. Swelling and bruising can last for several weeks. However, most women find that after 7 to 10 days and with a little make up, they can go out and about without calling attention to themselves. Most men find they can return to their work routine with out make up at 7 to 10 days.
FOREHEAD LIFT RECOVERY
To support the forehead while the body heals, 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.
FOREHEAD LIFT TESTIMONIALS
“I wanted to thank everyone at the office for their personal attention. The results of my forehead lift with Dr. Steinsapir are even better than I expected.” RB
“I saw a number of surgeons before consulting Dr. Steinsapir about eyelid surgery. None of them explained the relationship between the position of the eyebrow, the upper eyelid and the forehead. Dr. Steinsapir has amazing training and it you can tell speaking with him that he really cares and knows what he’s talking about. He told me I did not need eyelid surgery, all I needed was an endoscopic forehead lift…. The results are fantastic.”AL
