I'm annoyed by the outcome. Money and time wasted on this. Plus more scars and numbness and stinging sensations. I can't think of one positive reason for this surgery I had.

Dent in middle of forehead
SavanahhopeFebruary 24, 2017
I noticed this vertical indentation in my forehead a few months ago after the surgery. If I run my fingers across my forehead I can feel it go inwards. :-(

I can't see any dent. Your forehead looks smooth. Was the dent there before? I wonder if your surgeon cut any muscles?

I can vaguely see a little mark but really REALLY had to look. You are gorgeous.

I have that same line! It's from the beginning of my hairline straight down to my eyebrow. a straight line. I can actually see it from certain angles and in some pictures. I have not had surgery, fillers, nothing. It came out of nowhere. STRANGE!

I looked at your pics before reading any of your reviews and I thought you were going to say you're super happy. Cause really you look amazing. Much more attractive than your pre op pic. But I can understand you freaking out about the scars and hair loss. That's very infortunate. But anyway, just looking at your face I would say the surgery was a success.

Sorry to hear you're not happy. What kind of brow lift is this? Did the procedure also lower your hairline? You look great by the way. I hope things will improve for you.

Ugly stretched scars
SavanahhopeDecember 28, 2016
It's been over 6 months and my scars are hideous. I can't wear my hair up anymore unless I want this huge shiny bald spot to show. It is indented in my scalp. It feels like a dip in my head. My right side is way worse than my left side. I asked the doctor if this was normal and if the scar needed to be opened and closed tighter. He said I might need some scar cream. But there is no way that scar cream will close that one and a half inch indention. It is really shiny, so I know there are no hair follicles alive underneath. My forehead has started to settle more and I have small wrinkles where it's pushing down. It feels like the skin is much more loose. My right brow is lower than my left. I still have numbness and weird sensations in my forehead and scalp.

I'm so sorry about your scars and problems you are having from your brow lift. It sounds awful. I have the same issue you had - I had an upper blepharoplasty on my right eyelid and the right brow fell. I was so hoping you would have a good result because I wanted a brow lift also. I hope you can find a solution. Will you see another surgeon for a revision?

I'm thinking about starting a failed browlift forum so I can see if anyone else out there had similar experiences. It's good to be able to know you aren't alone in bad outcomes. Lol. I have a couple of names of reconstructive FACIAL plastic surgeons. Since I've spent the majority of my savings on this procedure, I need to get some more saved up. But I'm hoping the scars can be fixed and my forehead can at least be put back up where it was prior to the surgery.

I too had a failed browlift, my forehead is bumpy, have scars in my hairline, will be wearing bangs the rest of my life.

Robby d when did you have yours? Did you get bald spots? Are you thinking of having a revision? Or did you already have a revision?

I'm really sorry for you, that's why I still have not undergone this procedure, are you going to see another surgeon for opinion, because it seems that modern temporal lifting do not have important risks of complication , You certainly had a tradtional temporal lifting with scars of at least 5 cm, I think you have to go and see another specialist.Can you send photos of your forehead with new wrinkles?
January 3, 2017
I plan on going see a facial surgeon. I used more of a general surgeon and I think I'm paying the price in more ways than just money. I think my scar on my right is way larger than 5 cm. (It must just be the angle of the camera in the photo.) I will post some photos of my forehead. I never had any lines small or large on my forehead before. Now small "settle" lines all over.

I'm so sorry your going through this, but know your not alone. I had surgery 5 weeks ago and I already know things are not right. What did your surgeon say about you baldness. Mine says it will come back, I'm like no it won't and my scar looks like a huge caterpillar on the one side. I don't even know what to do about this.
January 14, 2017
I'm sorry about yours too. Last time I saw him he said put scar cream on it. He just brushes off anything I say. Hopefully your doctor will work with you to fix (if needed, you're still early out) your scars and brow. Best wishes.

Sorry for this experience, but thank you for the information! For what it's worth, you still look really pretty in the photos, and I wouldn't have noticed the asymmetries. I can't see what you see in person, though, and I'm not dismissing it, especially the hair fallout! So outrageous what he did! Can you post the facial doctors in Nola that you recommend? I am trying to move there, as may get something done. I would like to know, if you know someone good there for fat grafting to the face from the butt, with lipo and fat repositioning on the butt, too.
January 26, 2017
Hi, thank you. I don't really know any in NO and I surely don't know anything about fat grafting. lol I can only imagine the outcome of that on me. I'm gonna go to a reconstructive facial surgeon a little closer to home, not in NO.
