Coronal Forehead Lift for Young Patient?

As other surgeons have mentioned, there are so many ways to address forehead lines including chemical (Botox) and surgical approaches. A Coronal brow lift is, in my opinion, a historical approach with very little relevance in contemporary facial rejuvenative procedures. Patients with an acceptable hairline can be addressed endoscopically, and patients with a high hairline can be addressed with a trichophytic approach. A coronal approach raises a hairline and requires a large incision. The only time I currently use a coronal approach is for trauma cases.

It is difficult to answer this question without seeing your photos.  Your surgeon may be right in suggesting a coronal lift if you have a low hairline (short forehead) and very droopy brows.  Otherwise go for Botox or an endoscopic brow lift.

  Excellent surgeons debate the benefits of endoscopic or small incision lifts vs the traditional coronal forehead lift.  I am not sure you even need a forehead lift--you might be very happy with the results of Botox or Dysport which might be highly successful in delaying the need for a forehead lift.  But I agree--no coronal lift in someone in their 20's.
