Would a direct or endoscopic brow lift be best to correct ptosis and reduce heaviness? (photos)

Question

Hello, I wanted to ask the Doctors on here their opinion on direct brown lifts. The visibility of the scarring and overall results To treat my right brow ptosis the doctor recommended I get a direct brow lift. He didn't want to do a forehead lift because he suggested that my forehead is already short I just wish to have less heaviness in my brows, so I can stop lifting them up all the time, causing me to have super deep horizontal wrinkles in the forehead

Hello from Istanbul! I recommend a temporal lift which effectively lifts the midface and brows. Our method ensures better elevation by lifting both deep and superficial planes, prevents tissues from drooping prematurely and helps with longer-lasting rejuvenation and maximized brow mobilization for an exceptionally natural appearance. Best of luck on your journey!

A direct brow lift is better for older patients who have deeper wrinkles to hide the scar.  In my opinion, an endoscopic brow lift is standard of care.

Your ptosis will not be corrected by a brow lift. It requires an eyelid procedure. The procedure can be done with an incision inside the eye that does not show.a physician needs to measure the amount of opening that you have, and how your muscles move. drops that are put into the eye can give you an idea about how the procedure will look. certainly, you should not have a Direct Brow lift as this will leave a scar that is unnecessary

I recommend a frontal incision brow lift.  This will lower your hairline and raise your eyebrows.

Best Wishes,
