Could the scar from a direct brow lift be hidden in a younger patient?

June 11, 2022
Asked By:Ana823557 in Brothers, Oregon

I'm looking to get a brow lift, in my 30s, fair skin, with freckles and red hair, few wrinkles, and my scars heal amazingly (even doctors miss them). A surgeon suggested my forehead skin is too tight and would make an endoscopic lift less effective and suggested a direct lift would be better for me. I’m also avoiding anesthesia for other health reasons. Could (and how) I treat the scar to near invisibility after getting this done?
