Added: 04/13/2006

Brow lift procedure reviews contain information about its advantages (available possibilities: reduction of wrinkles, sagging and crows' feet effects, etc) and disadvantages (possible brow lift risks that depend on the kind of lift procedure: face nerve injury, forehead paralysis, permanent loss of hair, early relapse, numbness of the forehead, brow asymmetry, hematoma). They provide all necessary information for potential clients and successful operation performance.

Brow lift operation is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures all over the world. It is famous owing to its difficult purposes and perfect results. It helps in the cases of drooping eyes and sagging eyelids, as well as crows' feet wrinkles, facial lines and creases. There are three kinds of brow lift procedure: classic coronal brow lift; endoscope brow lift and subcutaneous procedures. As all cosmetic surgery techniques, this procedure keeps both advantages and disadvantages so it is recommended to get a qualified consultation before operation performing where a qualified cosmetic surgeon informs about all positive results and possible brow lift risks. Coronal forehead lift is a procedure when the physician, by using some incisions made from ear to ear, removes the muscles, excess fat and skin that cause wrinkles and sagging effect. The endoscope forehead lift resembles the classical coronal forehead lift. The difference is kept in used incisions. In the case of the endoscope lift they are short (less than one inch in length) and the surgeon uses endoscope device with tiny camera at the edge. It is proved that side effects and after surgery health state depends on the kind of brow lift procedure: it may be a classical coronal brow lift operation, endoscope variant or subcutaneous procedures. If we talk about coronal brow lift, the most common side effects are temporal discomfort and numbness around the incisions. The surgeon will probably prescribe certain individual medications for controlling these side effects. Patients with regular headaches will be supplied with special long-acting anaesthesia (local variant) for brow lift preventing purposes. The temporal hair losing is a common problem after the brow lift procedure they tend to get thinner. The normal growth renovates after 2-6 weeks. In the case of endoscope brow (forehead lift) the side effects can be added by swelling although the itching sensations are milder than after the classical coronal procedure. According to the brow lift reports, despite high quality of modern equipment and professionalism of skilful cosmetic surgeons, there is still large probability of brow lift risks after the operation performance. Face nerve injury, forehead paralysis, permanent loss of hair, early relapse, numbness of the forehead, brow asymmetry, hematoma and slower healing process (as a result) are among the most common brow lift risks. Usually the final result of brow lift procedure is seen in two or four weeks. But it is possible to return to the usual lifestyle and work after three days. But the appearance will be still in an abnormal condition. So, in the first stages of recovery a special make-up (that can be done in 3-5 days) will help to appear in public. The patients, who used to wear contact lenses, can renovate their usage in a week after stitches removing (in 7-10days), although bandages are taken off in 1-3 days. However, the list of possible brow lift risks is very imposing, it does not stop potential clients to run to this service.
