Do the Pro's Outway the Con's in a Coronal Brow Lift?

  It depends who you ask.  I try to discuss different options with my patients and discuss that different physicians may approach any problem in various ways.  There are plenty of doctors who do coronal brow lifts and swear that their results are superior to doctors (like myself) who try to steer patients to small incision lifts.  Personally, if it was me, I would prefer having a brow lift with the smaller incisions.

The incision for a coronal browlift starts at one ear and runs to the top of the other ear.  There usually is discomfort. much headache and pain following this procedure. One will note more edema with a coronal browlift than with an endobrow.  I high recommend the endo browlift above the coronal.    The endobrowlift usually consists of 5 incisions that are right at the hairline.  There is minimal swelling or discomfort.
