We
perform Brow and Forehead Lifts to raise eyebrows
and reduce ridges and furrows on the forehead,
thus creating a smoother, more youthful appearance.
This procedure can be performed in conjunction
with other surgeries.
Newer
techniques now allow us to perform Forehead
Lifting through small incisions in the scalp
by using an Endoscope and specialized instruments.
This accelerates the healing process.
Done
under local anaesthesia with sedatives or general
anaesthesia. Though two small incisions within
the hair line endoscope and instruments are
inserted adn the peristeum skipped. The forehead
muscle insertions are separated and the brow
suspended using sutures. Two sutures or staples
are used to close incision.
Antibiotics
may be prescribed for several days following
surgery. Sutures/ staples are generally removed
within one week. Swelling and some bruising
may occur, they should subside within a few
weeks. Our doctors will prescribe ice compresses
and eye exercises to reduce swelling and regain
mobility. Women will be allowed to use eye cosmetics
two weeks after surgery. You can proceed with
your normal daily activities within 1-2 weeks.
A final evaluation may occur within several
months from the initial surgical procedure.
