Coronal Brow Lift Vs Endoscopic Brow Lift?

After consulting 6 surgeons for face, neck and eye surgery, only one wants to do a coronal brow lift. Is this safe and successful compared to an endoscopic brow lift?

A: Comparing Browlifts

The descion you and your surgeon make about which forhead lift is best for you depends on numerous variables.  Without photos, it is difficult to give you an accurate answer.  The forehead lift that will ultimately be best for you depends on your concerns with your hairline position, placement of inscicions, and desired outcome.

There are many methods for performing a browlift or forehead lift including an endoscopic browlift (through tiny incisions with the assistance of telescopes) , bicoronal forehead lift (extensive incision from ear to ear across the top of the head) and a tricophytic or hairline browlift. (hidden along the hairline. Each of these techniques achieves a similar result through the brow and the forehead in terms of smoothing of lines and gentle elevation of the brows.

The key difference is in how they affect your hairline. The Bicoronal (ear to ear) browlift elevates or pulls your hairline back, raising the frontal hairline by up to one inch. The Endoscopic lift has minimal effect of the position of the hairline. The tricophytic or hairline browlift can be used to adjust the hairline, usually lowering it to address a receding hairline or widow's peaks in the temporal hairline.
 

Best of luck!

What is a Endoscopic Brow Lift and When Is It the Best Choice?

What is a endoscopic brow lift and what other types of brow lifts are there and which ones are needed for what problem?

A: When an Endoscopic Forehead Lift Best

An Endoscopic forehead lift is the best option when your goal is to maintain your hairline and have minimal incision and visible scarring postoperatively.
I always caution my patients that they continue to age and that no procedure is permanent, however, if performed by a board certified, facial plastic surgeon, your results should be very long lasting.

Best of luck!
