Had a brow llift 8 weeks ago with endotine implants. Have constant itching in forehead and scalp. Also, shooting pains in scalp mainly from incision points. What can be done?
Answer: Post Brow Lift Itching and Pain
As part of the recovery itching and numbness is normal and can last up to 12 weeks. The shooting pain can be the result of nerve disruption during the procedure, I would contact your plastic surgeon for an evaluation.

Answer: "time heals all wounds"
So itching and shooting pains is a sign of healing skin and nerves. Time is your best friend. However, if the pain is unbearable, sometimes steroid injections might help. A steroid cream might also help the itching.

Answer: Itching and pain following brow lift
I would first recommend seeking the advice of your surgeon, as he/she knows the details of your procedure. Any residual pain associated with the procedure can usually be controlled with an over the counter medication, and your surgeon may be able to recommend a topical cream that helps relieve the symptoms you describe. Sometimes people will have a condition call neuropathic pain. In these instances, I may prescribe medications such as Neurotin, Lyrica and others. I would talk with your doctor about these possibilities.
