Answer: Headache after Brow Lifts
Headaches are not uncommon following a coronal brow lift or even an endoscopic brow lift. In my practice however they are rarely seen after the short scar brow lifts/temple lift techniques. They usually go away in 2-3 days.
Staples are used as it is less likely to catch hairs withing the stitches that are placed eliminating the need to trim or shave hair or developing irritations from buried hairs. It is actually less traumatic to the skin to use and also saves a bit of time while resulting in a nice result

Answer: Headache after coronal forehead lift
It is common to have headache for a few days after coronal forehead lift. It is likely due to 1. transaction of the supraorbital (sensory ) nerve (causing numbness of the top of the head for several months, 2. tightening the muscles and skin and 3. general manipulation of the forehead tissues. Nevertheless, it is easily controlled by mild analgesics.
