Brow lift (Forehead lift)

Arises when:

The distance between the eyebrows and the upper eyelashes is short
With or without heavy upper eyelids and when frown lines are marked
A forehead lift is suitable to raise the eyebrows. Other local operations can of course also achieve this.

The surgery can be done either with endoscopic technique or with the traditional brow lift where an incision is done a few centimetres behind the hairline from ear to ear. If the hairline already is high positioned, the incision is done before it in order not to pull the hairline higher up. With the endoscopic technique 5-6 incisions are made just behind the hairline. The hairline will always be pulled upwards.

Differences between the endoscopic and traditional forehead lift: The lifting effect of the traditional forehead lift is more effective and more stable.

Specific post operative events after a forehead lift:
Transient numbness of the scalp. This can be permanent.
