Endoscopic Forehead Lift

A forehead lift surgery performed using a rigid fiber optic telescope that allows visualization of the surgery through small incisions in the scalp. The immediate benefit of this approach is a much smaller incision compared to the old style open coronal forehead lift. The smaller the incision, the quicker the recovery. While the endoscopic forehead lift has become the standard approach for forehead elevation, there is significant variation in how these procedures are done, how tissues are released, and how the tissues are fixated.
