Forehead lift surgery quick facts

Why do you need?

Upper face lift surgery, often referred to as a forehead lift, is a procedure designed to tighten the forehead and temple area, effectively lifting the eyebrows.

This surgery can significantly enhance your appearance by alleviating the tired look that comes from drooping brows and forehead wrinkles associated with aging. The result? A more refreshed, youthful, and vibrant look.

There are two main techniques for tightening the forehead:

• Classic forehead lift
• Endoscopic forehead lift

In the classic method, a skin incision of about 3-4 cm is made just beyond the hairline, stretching from one temple to the other. The forehead skin is then lifted upwards, excess skin is removed, and everything is stitched back together tightly. While this technique has historical significance, it’s not commonly used today.

These days, the endoscopic technique has gained popularity for its effectiveness and less invasive nature.

How will I perform endoscopic lifting?

I always opt for the endoscopic forehead lift technique. This procedure typically requires local anesthesia, often combined with deep sedation or general anesthesia, and it usually takes about 1.5 hours to complete.

During the endoscopic forehead lift, I make a small incision, about 1.5 to 2 cm long, just beyond the hairline. I create incisions on both temples and one on each side of the forehead. Then, I insert an endoscopic camera, which is roughly 0.5 cm in diameter, through these openings. At the same time, I introduce specially designed instruments for endoscopic surgery through additional small cuts.

Using the camera’s view, I gently lift the skin away from the bone down to the eyebrow level. The camera makes it quite straightforward to elevate the skin. Once the skin is lifted, I carefully weaken the muscles that create forehead lines by making fine scores, which helps to release the skin. Finally, I pull the skin upward and secure it in a tighter position.

There are several fixation methods available. Some surgeons prefer to drill a small hole in the bone and use stitches to secure the forehead skin through that hole. Others might choose to use 3-4 mm screws for fixation, while some opt for specially designed hangers attached to the bone with screws.

Regardless of the method chosen, all of them effectively hold the brow skin tighter against the bone. In terms of the surgical outcome, it doesn’t really matter which technique the surgeon selects. To finish, I close the skin incisions with absorbable stitches.

As a result, the forehead area becomes tighter, and the drooping eyebrows are lifted. Thanks to the endoscopic technique, which has evolved from traditional methods, there are no visible scars along the scalp.

How is the recovery after the procedure?

Just a few hours after your surgery, you’ll be able to shake off the anesthesia and start moving around. In fact, you can head home from the hospital on the very same day!

You won’t have to worry about intense pain post-surgery. You might feel some mild discomfort, but it’s manageable. Plus, pain medication will help keep things under control.

The only thing you might notice after the procedure is a bit of tension on your forehead, which is completely normal and just takes a little time to adjust to.

Since the area around your eyes is quite delicate, it tends to swell and bruise easily. The level of swelling and bruising can vary from person to person, depending on how sensitive your skin is.

To help reduce the swelling and bruising, applying ice to the area on the first day can be really effective. So, it’s a good idea to keep some ice around your eyes until you’re ready to sleep at night.

How will you feel yourself after the procedure?

When can you return your normal life?

Even on that very first day, you might find yourself feeling good enough to take care of your needs. Lifting your forehead won’t leave you stuck in bed. As soon as you start moving, you’ll discover that you have the freedom to get around.

The more you move, the more your confidence grows, and the better you feel, which helps speed up your recovery.

When you head back home the next day, you can dive right back into your daily life without relying on your bed.

Swelling and bruising typically fade away within a week during the recovery process. You’ll need about seven days of rest before you can jump back into work.

If you think about it, you could even work at the office despite some swelling… Why not? You can choose to return to work after just 4-5 days if you feel ready.

Traveling by plane is also an option during this time.

What are the risks and complications?

Surgical outcomes of the forehead lift which has no serious risk in terms of surgery are pretty satisfactory.
