I would want to get rid of some excess skin and wrinkles in my forehead but I don't want to raise my eyebrows since it will give me upper eyelid exposure which looks very feminine, I only know about two types of surgeries which are endoscopic and coronal forehead lifts and I would like to know which is best. also I am not interested in Botox, thank you.
Answer: Forehead creases I have treated forehead creases by eliminating the frontalis muscle that causes the creases. This can be done thru several techniques. I had a Brooklynite woman with deep lines that were permanently eliminated by one procedure. Fillers with fat or hyloronics can also be used , which are injectable. Good luck.

Answer: Options for forehead lift Hello and thank you for your question. By definition, a forehead lift tightens skin, but lifts your brows. Having said that, I do think it is possible to leave the brow attachments to the orbital rims, which would leave the brows in their respective positions, but pull the skin upward. The incision would need to be at the hairline/pretrichial and the frontalis muscle would need to be weakened during the surgery. Best of luck to you and I hope you found these comments helpful!

Answer: Is it possible to do a forehead lift to tighten loose skin without raising eyebrows? Hello. Thank you for your question. There are multiple techniques available for lifting the brow and/or forehead. The choice of technique depends on the anatomy and goals of the individual patient and the experience of the physician. If you are simply wanting to tighten the skin and improve forehead wrinkles without significant elevation of the brow, this can be best accomplished by performing a pretrichial subcutaneous forehead lift. With this technique, the incision is made in an irregular pattern within the edge of the frontal hairline, and the dissection is performed within the subcutaneous layer of the forehead to allow the skin of the forehead to be separated from the underlying muscle. The skin is then re-draped over the forehead and excess skin is then removed. The incision is then closed within the frontal hairline. This can significantly improve forehead wrinkles. However, the skin will adhere back to the underlying muscle and over time the forehead wrinkles will likely begin to recur with repeated facial expressions that raise the brow. Therefore, Botox injections will still likely be needed to prevent recurrence of the forehead wrinkles over time. I would encourage you to seek a consultation with a board-certified Facial Plastic Surgeon, or Plastic Surgeon, who has extensive experience and expertise in facial rejuvenation and allow them to assess your individual anatomy, concerns and goals, in order to determine the best treatment plan for you. I wish you the best in achieving your aesthetic goals.

Answer: Can the forehead be lifted without raising the eyebrows? You can have a skin only forehead lift with an incision at the hairline made in such a way to let the hair grow through the scar. This would diminish the forehead wrinkle and not raise the brow. You need to be seen to determine if you are a good candidate for this procedure.

Answer: Removing excess for head skin without raising the brow with the Irregular Trichophytic incision Removing excess for head skin without raising the brow with the Irregular Trichophytic incision. I described this 40 years ago and have done hundreds! Your browse want to be raised in the excess skin can be removed with or without hairline lowering. This method allows hair to grow through the scars and the scar is not seen (unless you are a male who will have future hair loss).
