Brow lift incisions

Hello, The number of incision, their length and the method of suspending the brow are entirely surgeon dependent. I typically use two incisions placed in the temporal hairline measuring 3-4 centimeters and two very small incisions in the central scalp measuring 3-4 millimeters. The incisions tend not to cause discomfort and heal very well. If a patient is dissatisfied about any part of the browlift, incisional scars are rarely the cause. more

Browlift

There are usually 3 incisions after a mini-browlift, but can vary from 2 to 5. The incisions are in the hairline and are 1-1.5 inches. This does not include the upper eyelid incision. Often, an upper eyelid incision is still needed after a browlift to remove remaining excess eyelid skin.

Mini-browlift

As the other s question what is a mini browlift, is it a lift that is less than that which is needed. A lateral brow lift has two incisions at the hair line , each about an inch long and in the lateral part of the forehead hairline.

Short incisions in Endoscopic Browlift

Typically, 4 or 5 incisions are made in the hair-bearing scalp in an endobrow lift. The central incisions are less than an inch. The incisions over the temple are usually about an inch to an inch and a... more

Incisions Used In An Endoscopic Browlift

When you use the term 'mini-browlift', I assume you are refering to what is known as an endoscopic browlift. This is a miniature version of a traditional open browlift because the length of the incisions to do it are much less. This does not mean, however, that what gets down underneath the forehead tissues is any less. Most commonly, two to four small incisions behind the frontal and/or in the temporal hairline are used.
