If you are interested in getting a new look, you may be wondering about the procedure's before and after results. Here you will find information on One-stage brow lift, Endoscopic brow lift, and hairline lowering procedures. We'll also talk about the incisions required and recovery times. You will be able to make an educated decision about cosmetic surgery after reading this article. Before you make a decision about scheduling your surgery, here are some points to keep in mind.
Endoscopic browlift
Endoscopic brow lifts are becoming more popular. You may be concerned about how the recovery process works. There are many benefits to this procedure. You can return to work and other normal activities within one to two week after the procedure. In some cases, however, this procedure can take several weeks or even months. Here's a look at what to expect. This procedure heals much faster than other plastic surgeries.
Because of gravity and the sun's exposure, a patient's brows will naturally droop. The skin's underlying support structures begin to break down as the skin ages. This can lead to a loss of skin structure and sagging. In this area, lines and wrinkles are often more obvious. These problems can be avoided by having a beautiful, healthy eyebrow at rest. A healthy brow should be slightly larger than the inner. A good brow lift procedure will adjust the underlying muscle layers and tighten loose skin.
One-stage forehead/hairline reduction/hairline lowering
One-stage forehead and hairline reductions can help you look natural. This procedure is not offered by every plastic surgeon. Dr. Aharonov, however, has performed hundreds of these procedures successfully. Dr. Aharonov will perform a video consultation and examine your face. If you wish, you can return to work that day.
After a one-stage forehead/hairline reduction/hairline lowering procedure, there is usually a minimal amount of downtime. There is also a light compression dressing. There will likely be some swelling and temporary bruising, but it will be very minimal. There may be some temporary numbness in the area behind their hairline that lasts several weeks. Patients may experience some numbness at the hairline for as long as seven days.
Surgical incisions
Surgical incisions for forehead plastic surgery vary depending on the type of procedure performed. A forehead lift, for instance, requires an incision to expose the forehead skin and the muscles beneath it. After the skin is removed, the incisions are closed with staples, clips, sutures or staples. To prevent infection and swelling, the patients are given bandages.
For a foreheadlift, the most common procedure involves several small scalp incisions. Each of these is less that an inch long. To view the muscles underneath the skin, the surgeon uses an endoscope. This is a small camera attached to a TV monitor. After the underlying tissue is removed the eyebrows will be lifted with temporary fixation screw or sutures. These procedures typically leave no visible scars and are recommended for patients seeking to minimize their scarring.
Time to recover
After having forehead plastic surgery, a week or so is required for full recovery. For at least two weeks after having forehead plastic surgery, patients are asked not to lift or bend over any heavy objects. They should also avoid hitting their heads on anything. Patients should avoid sleeping on their backs for at least a few days. Some people may feel tingling or numbness after surgery. It is best to avoid lifting large objects. Smokers should not lift heavy objects such as cars or suitcases. Smoking can delay healing and increase the likelihood of complications.
Swelling is normal and proportional to the severity of the surgery. You may notice swelling on your cheeks, nose, and eyes. This is the body’s natural reaction after surgery. It can peak between two to three days after surgery. After skin healing, swelling will decrease rapidly. Swelling is a temporary condition that can keep people from smiling and may cause discoloration of the eyelids.
