Wrinkles on the forehead are often so obvious that they may cause a heavy feeling in the forehead or can make you look tired, thus making people look older than their years.
As a result, the Forehead and Eyebrow Lift is the best way to achieve a fresh-faced, youthful appearance, taking years off the face.
The ideal candidate age for a Forehead and Eyebrow Lift surgery is above 40 years old. However, the surgery is also commonly performed on people at a younger age facing similar problems, such as deep horizontal creases on the forehead or frown lines between the eyebrows.
The endoscopic Forehead and Eyebrow Lift technique is performed with the help of a small camera that allows the surgeon to have a clear view under the skin, so as to lift and place the skin tissues in their new position. There are various techniques that secure tissue, one of which is the Endotine implants technique; they are soft, absorbable implants fixed directly to the bone, which are gradually fully absorbed by the body within a period of 6-9 months.
The complications of this procedure are extremely rare. Choosing a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon to perform the operation minimizes the possibilities of risks and side effects. Numbness and discomfort around the incisions, as well as temporary weakness of the forehead muscles are normal parts of the recovery process which gradually improve and finally return to normal from a few weeks to 6 months.
