Answer: Mid Forehead Lift The Mid forehead lift is not a commonly used technique. The typical candidate is one who has very deep lines in a very heavily aged forehead. The problem with the mid forehead lift is that it leaves a scar in the middle of the forehead. This is generally undesirable. There are many more modern, less visible options such as an endoscopic forehead lift, a hairline incision forehead lift, a temporal brow lift, and a coronal incision lift.

Answer: The mid-forehead lift is not commonly done. While it works well to lift the brow, very few people want to have the scar that you get with this surgery. I did a few early in my career, but stopped because I didn't like the scar. The ONLY patients I would consider this for is someone who has no brow hair (so can't do direct brow) and very deep forehead lines already. For that patient, you can create a scar that should look like one of the deep forehead lines. But even then it may be noticeable. Explore every other option first.

Answer: How common is the mid-forehead lift? This is a common procedure. It is typically used for patients that have deep lines on the forehead. These help to hide and camouflage the scar. The incisions can be red for several months but this is less of an issue in a person with deep forehead lines. The nice thing about browlift procedures is that there are many options depending upon the severity of brow droop, symmetry, hairline position and texture of the forehead skin. An experienced browlift surgeon will discuss the options and let you know which will work best for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Mid forehead lift A mid forehead lift can give good results but the main issue is the healing of the scar. If the incision is placed within an existing skin crease, these scars can eventually be very inconspicuous. It can take 6-12 months for the scar to heal fully. This procedure is really reserved for people who would not be good candidates for one of the other forehead lift approaches with more hidden scars.
