Coronal vs. endoscopic
I think you need to realize that most open (non-endoscopic) brow lifts performed today are hairline brow lifts and not coronal. In general the pros and cons between endoscopic and open brow lifts are:

Coronal & Endoscopic Brow Lifts
With the coronal (incision within the scalp) and endoscopic brow lift the hairline is elevated, which for most people is an undesirable facial feature.

Endoscopic versus open brow lift? Help!
In 1993 endoscopic plastic surgery was developed. Most common endoscopic procedure is the endoscopic brow lift or four head lift procedure.
