Dear Brokenbovine
I think Dr. Sonne is right in encouraging you to consider BOTOX. While the results are temporary it may be just what you are looking for.
If you need more effect, a forehead lift may be appropriate but not a coronal lift. The coronal lift is a surgery performed by cutting from one ear to the other, all the way through the scalp. This makes an huge incision that damages the scalp and can cause permanent hair and sensation loss. Variations include moving the incision to along the hair line. Surgeons who still perform this debilitating surgery are insensitive to the damage they cause in their patients.
There is almost no reason to perform the coronal forehead lift. It is a surgery that appropriately frightens any reasonable person. The small incision forehead lift is highly effective, with rapid recovery, and typically no loss of hair or sensation. Those who cling to the coronal forehead lift use a variety of arguments to justify their choice. Don't be taken in by their charms or their arguments. Find a forehead surgeon performing the endoscopic forehead lift. Better yet, try BOTOX first. This may be exactly what you are looking for without more surgery.
