Endoscopic Forehead Lift Leawood, KS | Swanson Center for Cosmetic Surgery

Understanding Forehead Lift Procedure

With aging, eyebrows can descend and frown lines develop, creating an unflattering facial expression. The endoscopic forehead lift offers a modern, minimally invasive solution to rejuvenate the upper third of the face.

Innovative Surgical Technique

Unlike traditional approaches, the endoscopic forehead lift utilizes small incisions hidden behind the hairline. This advanced technique provides:

• Minimal scarring
• Reduced operating time
• Faster recovery
• Better preservation of scalp sensation

Procedure Details

The procedure involves using specialized instruments through small incisions to lift forehead tissues and eyebrows. Surgeons carefully release tissue attachments and use tiny dissolving fasteners to hold the new position.

Benefits Beyond Cosmetic Enhancement

Interestingly, the endoscopic forehead lift may offer additional health benefits, including potential relief for migraine sufferers. Studies have shown significant improvement in migraine symptoms for many patients.

Alternative Options

For patients not ready for surgical intervention, Botox offers a temporary alternative to address frown lines and provide mild brow elevation. However, the endoscopic lift provides more comprehensive and longer-lasting results.

Recovery and Expectations

• Minimal discomfort post-procedure
• Temporary scalp numbness
• Sutures removed within 10-14 days
• Gradual return of scalp sensation

Potential Complications

While rare, potential complications include temporary nerve weakness, minor scalp hair loss at incision sites, and possible need for revision. An experienced surgeon minimizes these risks through precise technique.
