Endoscopic (trichophytic) browlift, any advantage to having this done under general anesthesia?

Hello, thank you for the question. I'm sure you would be able to find exceptions (perhaps due to variation in technique), but brow lift under general anesthesia is generally standard practice. It is not overkill and does not cause hair loss.

General anesthesia for the Irregular Trichophytic Brow Lift with or without Hairline Lowering Is my preferred method in more than 5000 of these since inventing it. My patients are more comfortable using this and the risk is extremely low—I have done this under general anesthesia on my family. Look for excellent results from your surgeon with the hair pulled back.

In our practice, we perform all brow lift procedures under general anesthesia monitored by a board-certified physician anesthesiologist for patient safety and comfort. We also perform mostly coronal approach brow lift procedures which can not only raise the eyebrows, but a address asymmetries, and soften both of horizontal and vertical frown lines in addition to raising or lowering the hairline.
