The surgery of endoscopic brow lift regards the upper third of the face (forehead-side section of the lateral canthus). Over time, the front and the side section of the eyebrows lose their youthful appearance. Deep wrinkles develop horizontally across the forehead, as well as on the bridge of the nose, between the eyes, while the side sector of the eyebrow starts to droop giving a tired, aged appearance.

Endoscopic brow lift procedure rejuvenates by improving the visible signs of aging of the forehead and drooping eyebrows. Too often middle-aged women and men believe that the excess skin at the upper outside part of the upper eyelid area can be corrected just by removing it (upper blepharoplasty). Most of the times, this perception and approach is wrong due to the fact that this extra skin in the area is nothing more than the sagging of the upper face.

In too many cases, the relocation of the outside part of the eyebrow to a more youthful position provides a more relaxed youthful look.

 

Briefing

During the necessary briefing provided to the patients by Dr Kretsis, he will determine the correct distance between the outside portion of the eyebrow, upper eyelid and the outside of the eye. A small simulation by pulling the skin on the outside portion of the eyebrow gives us the image of what the face will look like after the surgery.

Brow lift surgery operation

The surgery is performed in the accredited Metropolitan Hospital after a complete preoperative laboratory testing.

The surgery is performed under general anesthesia through tiny incisions in the hair line using a special endoscope which allows with absolute precision the release of those areas in the forehead that cause the particular aesthetic disharmony.

Operation time is about two hours and the patient can leave the hospital the very same day.

Brow lift recovery

The results of endoscopic brow lifting are visible from the first moment. The swelling subsides in 3-5 days after the operation. The patient will feel the skin of the operated area numb for 3-5 weeks after the surgery. After that period of time we have full restoration.

The stitches in the scalp are absorbable and fall on their own in 7-10 days.

The patient is allowed to bathe from the following day, but is forbidden to dye her hair for a month after the surgery.

Brow lift complications

Brow Lift operation has a low complication rate. The strongest complication that may occur is neuropraxia or injury of the forehead nerve. Today due to endoscope use, the complication rate is very low. It is generally considered to be a safe aesthetic operation.

Conclusively

Endoscopic forehead lift (Brow Lift) performed by Dr Kretsis is a simple surgical intervention which gives you a permanent, relaxing natural effect for many years.
