Brow Lift Surgery – Forehead Lift Surgery:

Forehead lift surgery also known as brow lift surgery is among the cosmetic surgery procedures that the Medical Tours Costa Rica Medical Tourism Group Offers:

Brow lift surgery, also known as a forehead lift, is a type of plastic surgery helps to minimize the wrinkles and deep creases that tend develop across the forehead as we age. There are also wrinkles and creases that develop high on the bridge of the nose, and those can also be minimized through this type of surgery. The surgery helps to improve what are commonly referred to as frown lines. It also repositions a sagging or low brow.

What happens during forehea lift surgery?

First Step – Application of Anesthesia prior to the forehead lift procedure:

During a forehead lift or face lift, there will be medications administered for your comfort. Whether IV sedation or general anesthesia is used is a personal choice, but it should be made in conjunction with surgeon recommendations. Your surgeon will discuss the options in detail, and he will recommend what he believes is the best choice.

In order to further enhance your face lift procedure, you can opt for a variety of complimentary procedures. These include but they are not limited to:

  • Facial implants.
  • Reducing wrinkles through injections.
  • To re-contour the facial structure, soft tissue augmentation.
  • To improve the tone and texture of facial skin, soft tissue augmentation.

Second Step – The surgical incision is made:

Depending on the degree of change you’d like to see, there are different rhytidectomy surgery choices. These different surgery choices include a traditional face-lift, limited incision face lift, a forehead lift and/or a neck lift.

If you opt for a traditional face-lift, the incision often begins in the hairline at the temples, it then continues around the ear, and it ends in the lower scalp. Fat from the jowls, face, and neck area may be redistributed to enhance your appearance. It is common for the deeper layers of the face and the muscles to be lifted, and for the underlying tissue to be repositioned.

The uplifted contours will have skin re-draped over them, with excess skin being trimmed away. Another incision, this one under the chin, may be necessary to further improve your neck if it shows signs of aging. Incisions will then be closed using skin adhesives, and you will then move to the healing process.

There is an alternative to a traditional face-lift which utilizes smaller incisions at the temples, and these continue around the ear, and then they could continue within the lower eyelids, or perhaps under the upper lip.

Accumulated fat, sagging jowls, and neck skin that is loose under the chin could be corrected with a neck lift. An incision for a neck lift often begins in front of the ear lobe and goes around behind the ear, and it ends in the lower scalp.

Third Step – The Surgical Incisions are Closed:

When they have healed, incision lines from the cosmetic surgery will be well hidden and concealed within the hairline, and they will follow the natural contours of the ear and face.

Fourth Step – Take a Look at the Forehead Lift Surgery Results:

There will be bruising and swelling following your surgery, but these will subside as time goes by. The outcome will be to restore you you to a more youthful, exuberant, and rested appearance, with the added bonus that you will feel more confident and self-assured.
