PROCEDURE DESCRIPTION
The procedure is done on an overnight basis under sedation and
local or general anesthesia. Three short incisions are placed in
the hairline.
The operation is done using an endoscope (a narrow hollow
instrument with a fiber optic light source and camera, through
which the procedure is done with small special instruments.)
The forehead skin is lifted and repositioned. The muscles that
cause frown lines are weakened.
RECUPERATION AND HEALING
The patient goes home with head wrapped in dressings, which are
usually removed on the first or second day after surgery. Initial
discomfort is easily controlled with oral medication.
Sutures or staples are removed within 7 - 10 days. Most swelling
and bruising is gone in 7-10 days.
OTHER OPTIONS
Additional procedures that may enhance the result are Lower and/or
Upper Eyelid Lift, Face Lift, Laser Resurfacing, or other facial
procedures or implants.
NOTE
The specific risks and the suitability of this procedure for a
given individual can be determined only at the time of
consultation. All surgical procedures have some degree of risk.
Minor complications that do not affect the outcome occur
occasionally. Major complications are unusual.
