What happens during surgery brow lift ?
The surgery is realized under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. Dr. Danielyan makes incisions in the scalp and through these incisions elevates the brows. There are diverse techniques to raise the brow:
-
The direct
-
The transblepharoplasty
-
The endoscopic
-
The pretrichial
-
The choice of method depends on the patient's anatomy.
Some patients can reach the finest results using endoscopic brow lift. During the brow lift surgery, behind the hairline on the top of the head and at the temples are doing the small incisions, using an endoscope the surgeon through these incisions views all surgeon area.
In our clinic we give our preference to endoscopic brow lift, since it requires smaller incisions, has shorter rehabilitation period and commonly there is less scarring. Released forehead and brows tissues are fixated using a small bone tunnel or with an Endotine implant (which increases the cost of the procedure). To avoid the muscles action, which pulls the brows down, Botulinum toxin injections are given 2-3 weeks before the surgery.
