Endoscopic and open brow lifts last the same amount of time.

Brow lift procedures will last the same amount of time if done correctly.  Each person will have a similar amount of time of correction which is usually quite a long time.  There are other considerations that you should think about regarding the differences in the procedures. The sensation to the top of the head is the main concern, because the open incision will cut the nerves that supply the scalp on the back side of the incision.  The scar is also an important... more
