Is a pretrichial brow lift or an endoscopic brow lift a better way to achieve lift to the mid-brow/forehead? (photos)

March 1, 2016
Asked By:realselfj994 in New York, NY

I'm getting conflicting opinions: saw one doctor and he said that I would need a pretrichial or direct brow lift to achieve the lift/longevity that I desire. He said an endoscopic lift would not be sufficient. Got a second opinion from a different doctor and she said that an endoscopic lift would give me the results that I want without the scarring of a pretrichial or direct lift. Both seems like great physicians, which leaves me quite confused. I would greatly appreciate further input.
