What is the Difference Between Temporal or Lateral Browlift Incisions?

                Temporal browlifts are lateral browlifts, and the incision is usually placed in temporal hairline.  I would not try to determine what is best for you.  This evaluation is complicated for some surgeons, and they have decades of schooling and knowhow.  Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of facial procedures and brow lifts each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Thank you for your question. There are many variations on the theme with this procedure, but the incision is usually in eh hair or on the hairline.  Different doctors have their own style or way of being trained. The keys are the result, and the duration of benefit. I hope this helps.

Temporal or lateral brow lift incisions do not lift the brow properly in my opinion. You need the Irregular trichophytic forehead lift which is done at the hairline without a visible scar.
