Can I have endoscopic brow lift without raising my hairline?

Question

I have a large forehead and low brows. I'm interested in the brow lift but I'm afraid the endoscopic brow lift will make my forehead even bigger and the trichophytic brow lift will leave a big scar accross my forehead. Is there a way to have an endoscopic brow lift without making my forehead bigger? Can most facial plastic surgeons achieve that? Are the endoscopic brow lift scars invisible? Are they well hidden within my hairline?

Endoscopic Browlift will raise your hairline! 
Irregular Trichophytic Forehead Lift gives the best Browlift If performed by an experienced surgeon familiar with this technique. Their is no visible scar as hair grows thru the line. Having done 5000 if these since inventing it without any serious complication other than a few pimples i still feel its the best. With this technique the Hairline can also be lowered and brow bone contoured. Make sure you see all results with the full hairline exposed with the hair pulled back and NO SCAR VISIBLE.

Hello and thank you for your question. A formal evaluation would be needed to determine the best treatment. There are both surgical and non-surgical options to correct this, depending on your exact situation.

For less significant issues, there are nonsurgical treatments: To give the eyebrows a nice lift, we use injectable fillers to improve the eyebrow, upper eye, forehead and temple. A filler is placed on the bone and in the fat pads of these areas to contour and lift without it looking overdone. We use cannulas to limit pain and swelling.

Surgery (browlift and/or upper blepharoplasty) is a great option for more significant improvement- for example if there is more substantial eyebrow drooping. I suggest getting a consultation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert, or an aesthetic facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Donald Groves; we are both located right here in Los Angeles.

Best, 
Dr. Emer
