I had an endo brow and face lift 1 month ago. I still have numbness around my ears and forehead which I understand is normal at this stage. My concern is with the sensations I am experiencing on my scalp as there seems to have been little improvement since the procedure. The scalp is numb, yet the skin has a burning sensation and is very sensitive to the touch. I have consulted my PS who says in 3 months everything should be fine. Are these normal symptoms?

It is possible to adjust the eyebrow shape and position with Botox after an endoscopic browlift. One of the downsides of the endobrow procedure that might actually help you is that the lift will tend to relax slightly over time. Hopefully, the expected amount of relaxation over time will leave...
As others have emphasized the important first step is to diagnose the cause of your forehead depression. Treatment is is relatively straight-forward; the depression can be augmented with a filler or more permanently with fat.
Unfortunately the brow lift causes a headache for about 24 hours.I usally tell my patients that the brow lift is going to heart more that the face lift. Pain medication would control the pain and I must say that the degree of pain is dependent on patients as some complain of very little pain.
