Today's the day
WORTH IT
Today my stitches and staples are coming out. Oh joy. I'm not great with discomfort so not my favorite day but I'm sure things will be better afterwards!
My progress visually is really good. The scalp, however is very sensitive and there are certain areas with scabbing and just plain discomfort. I 'll post some close ups photos of the scalp (although it ain't so pretty) and and update on healing.
One day at a time!

November 8th update
Swelling is going down, my stitches are a bit itchy but I'm feeling pretty good right about now. :) My next appointment is Nov. 12th for removal of stitches and staples. I notice the hooding (thank God) is gone and I am liking the results I am seeing so far.
Surely, I will be morphing along as I heal but so far the only complaint I have is that I can't style my hair.

ORIGINAL POST
Endoscopic Brow LIft
About four years ago I had a facelift with Dr. David Rosenberg which I was extremely happy with. At that time I was not in need of a browlift as Dr. Rosenberg pointed out to me. He is very conservative and prefers very natural results which is a great match for me.
Recently, I noticed that my upper lids were beginning to have some 'hooding' and botox was much more challenging in the forehead area so I visited him for his opinion on what would be the best approach for these particular issues. Dr. Rosenberg and I both agreed that the endoscopic brow lift would be a good choice for me at this time.
My surgery was on November 2nd and it's only been 4 days since the surgery but recovery has been quite comfortable except for the normal swelling and some slight headaches. There were stitches in the top of the hairline with a 'device' called endodine and on the side incisions, there are staples.
I will update this review as the days go on. So far, so good!

I’m having a brow lift in February but she said that there will be no staples. Only stitches??!! Were you put out, and how long was the surgery? Was it in a hospital?

Can I ask how much you paid for the entire surgery? I’m having a temporal brow lift. Do you know what is the difference in the results?????

Are you going to post recent updates. I’m so anxious to see how your before and after pix look. I’m having a brow lift in two weeks.
