Endoscopic forehead lift

Plastic surgery techniques are constantly being perfected. The endoscopic forehead lift is one of the most recent developments in this area.

In a conventional brow or forehead lift an incision is made from ear to ear at the top of the skull. The endoscopic method, for its part, requires only three fine incisions in the scalp, through which the plastic surgeon inserts an endoscope (a narrow tube fitted with a light and magnifying glass) to explore the area of the surgery and perform the lift.

Given the limited lesions, healing is extraordinarily rapid. After performing the operation, the surgeon places a bandage over the area that must remain in place for a week, after which one can resume one's normal activities.
