During consultation i was told In house procedure, no bleeding, no bandages, scars will be paper thin ( up close see them) my brows would grow into them and cover them within 6 moths. However, that wasn't true, i was still bleeding after surgery and had to keep bandages on for 2 days. The scars are not paper thin and are highly visible. The hair from my eyebrows have not grown in to cover the scars. So my concern is, what procedures, are there to remove or fade these scars please. Thanks

Answer: Direct Browlift scars Dear jayb123, Personally I do not perform this procedure I think it gives an unnatural lift and the visible incisions are conspicuous and there are much better alternatives. I have enclosed a link below of a male patient with an endoscopic browlift and this procedure leaves no tell tale signs of surgery and has a very natural and youthful appearance as the end result. With that said you need to see some experts for consultation to determine the best way to improve your scars. I would say they will need to be revised for a narrower scar and then treatments for camouflage would then be discussed after you have fully healed. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.

Answer: Scars from direct brow lift It is rare that a direct brow lift will result in totally undetectible scars. The trichophytic type of excision and skin closure will not work due to the direction of the hair flow. A situation such as yours might be handled first by scar revision,to get narrower scars, and 6 months later have hair tranplants or micropigmentation done. In the meantime, eyebrow pencil can conceal you problem to some degree.
