[Doctor's Answer] Think Twice Before a Brow Lift! Common Misconceptions About Brow Lifts—These People Are Not Suitable for Endoscopic Forehead Lifts
Who is not suitable for brow lift surgery?
• Having overly high expectations for brow lift surgery:
While Endoscopic Forehead Lift is a very effective and noticeable facelift, no surgery is a panacea. If you expect all fine lines to disappear completely after the procedure, your face to achieve a perfectly firm state without any problems, or even to stop aging after the procedure, such expectations will definitely fall short of reality.
Misjudging the effect - believing that the eyebrows need to be higher than before the surgery for it to be effective.
How to judge the surgical results? Some people think that an Endoscopic Forehead Lift is effective only if the eyebrows are higher and the double eyelids are wider. However, the effect of an Endoscopic Forehead Lift cannot be judged by the height of the eyebrows. An Endoscopic Forehead Lift is like laying the foundation for the eye area. It can effectively lift the upper facial tissues, and the tissues around the eyes will also be noticeably lifted. However, if you have a habit of unconsciously raising your eyebrows before the surgery, you will not need to raise your eyebrows to support your eyelids after the brow lift. The brow muscles will return to normal function, and your expression will return to natural. Comparing the eyebrow height before and after the surgery, because of the eyebrow raising before the surgery, you will not find a big difference in height.
Misjudging the effect - believing that the double eyelids need to show obvious strain after surgery, and how wide they need to be to be considered effective.
For individuals who have specific requirements regarding the shape, height, or even whether the double eyelids are open or closed after surgery, Endoscopic Forehead Lift alone may not be sufficient to achieve the desired effect; other oculoplastic surgeries may be necessary.
The obvious lifting effect of brow lifts is overlooked because of issues that can be assessed and adjusted locally.
If you have previously had hyaluronic acid or other fillers injected into your forehead, you need to inform your doctor before the procedure so they can confirm the amount and evenness of the injections to avoid surgical risks. If you undergo a brow lift without knowing this, there is a possibility of unevenness in the forehead due to the injected material. In this case, you will need to be re-evaluated and adjusted, but it usually will not affect the lifting effect of the Endoscopic Forehead Lift, which will show significant improvement in forehead wrinkles, sagging, and overall eye appearance.
If the unevenness or depressions in the forehead caused by hyaluronic acid injections are not obvious after the procedure, they can be re-evaluated and improved. If the patient is very concerned about local issues, it is essential to clearly inform the patient about any previous forehead surgeries before the procedure and to understand the necessary risks during pre-operative health education. This will help avoid related sequelae and allow the patient to enjoy the results of the Endoscopic Forehead Lift surgery with peace of mind!
