Has anyone had an endoscopic brow lift with high hairline and been happy with the results?

Endoscopic brow lift: Most brow lifts are done endoscopically these days. The problem is the high hairline whichshould be adressed. I would love to see apicture of the hair line. It may be done openly to excise some skin possibly.

Yes: Endoscopic browlifts, carefully done, can yield very nice results without appreciable elevation of the hairline. This is because unlike open browlifts, no scalp is removed. The balance between brow elevators and brow depressor muscles is changed so the brows rise naturally. The hairline generally does not rise significantly.

Small hairline shift: Endoscopic brow lift minimally shifts the hairline. If you want the hairline lowered with a brow lift it is possible with a pretrichial lift with an incision at the hairline. It leaves a longer scar than with an endoscopic lift and has a higher risk of long term scalp numbness.

Hairline will rise: The endoscopic browlift does raise the hairline. The question is how high your hairline already is and how much elevation is acceptable for you. I hope this information is helpful. Stephen weber, M.D. Lone tree facial plastic surgeon.
