How is the brow lift performed?
The technique chosen for your surgery depends on your features, your surgeon’s preferences and your desired results. There are several variations to the forehead lift procedure. Dr Sumita will recommend the surgical technique that she feels will obtain the best outcome for you. One common method is the coronal incision technique. Using this technique, an incision is made across the top of the scalp, beginning above the ears and concealed within the hair. Sometimes, the incision may be placed at the front of the hairline. The incision is inconspicuous when healed. Through this incision, parts of the muscles that cause wrinkling and frown lines are modified or removed lifting your eyebrows to a more pleasing level.
