How long does an endotine brow and Forhead lift last?

In my experience, an endoscopic brow lift using and endotine lasts for about 10 years.  I have been using the endotines as anchoring devices for many years and have seen great success.  The endotine dissolves after about 4 months.  During that time patients do feel a small bump behind the hairline, but I have never seen any complications with them.It is also very important to follow post op instructions to ensure the longevity of the surgery.  For a month I suggest not having a "hair blow out" where the hair is pulled away from the scalp.  This can disrupt the healing.  Also it is very important to get Botox to the muscles that depress the brow, meaning the frown lines and crows feet at least twice a year.  This allows the brow to heal in its new position.

A well executed endoscopic brow lift should result in appreciable brow elevation and years of longevity regardless of endotine or hardware (screws) fixation. Results can be variable depending on anatomy, tissue characteristics, eyebrow position, and many factors in a person's life that can affect the way they age. I use screws for fixation that are not absorbable, so I take them out in 3 weeks. At that time the forehead is secure at a higher position so an early recurrence of sagging brows is unusual. Patients with thick heavy skin and and brows may be at higher risk for under correction of eyebrow position with less longevity. Many of my patients at 10 years have stability in the result. Threads usually are not that effective in long-term elevation of facial tissues.
