If you are interested in getting a new look, you may be wondering about the procedure's before and after results. This section will provide information about Endoscopic browlifts, One-stage browlifts, and hairline lowering. We will also discuss the recovery process and incisions. After reading this article, you should be able to make an informed decision regarding your cosmetic surgery. You should be aware of these things before scheduling your operation.
Endoscopic browlift
The recovery process for an endoscopic eyebrow lift is something you might be interested in. This procedure has many benefits. In one to two days, you will be able to return to work or normal activities. Sometimes, the procedure can take weeks or even months. Here's what you can expect. This procedure heals much faster than other plastic surgeries.
A patient's brows naturally droop as a result of gravity and exposure to sunlight. 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. An ideal brow should be slightly higher in height than the inner. A good brow lifting procedure will adjust the layers of muscle and tighten loosening skin.
One-stage forehead reduction/hairline lower procedure
One-stage forehead/hairline reduction/lowering surgery can create a natural-looking appearance. While not every plastic surgeon offers this procedure, Dr. Aharonov is experienced in this procedure and has performed hundreds of them successfully. Dr. Aharonov will conduct a video consultation to examine your face. He will then make recommendations based upon your specific anatomy and desired outcome. You can return to work the same day if you desire.
The typical recovery time after a one stage forehead reduction/hairline-lowering surgery is a short period of downtime with a light compression dressing. While swelling and bruising may occur, it will usually be mild and temporary. For several weeks, patients might feel some numbness at their hairline. The area behind the hairline will feel numb for seven days.
Surgical incisions
The type of forehead plastic surgery performed will vary in the types of incisions required. To separate forehead skin from underlying muscles, a forehead lift is an example. The excess skin is then removed, and the incision closed using staples, clips or sutures. Afterward, patients will be given bandages to wear to prevent infection and swelling.
Multiple scalp incisions are the most common way to do a forehead lift. Each one is less than an inch in length. The surgeon will then use an endoscope to examine the muscles below the skin. After the underlying tissue has been removed, the eyebrows can be lifted using temporary fixation screws and sutures. Patients who wish to minimize scarring will appreciate the fact that these procedures leave no visible scarring.
Time to recover
After having forehead plastic surgery, a week or so is required for full recovery. Patients should not bend over or lift any heavy items for at most two weeks. Additionally, they should avoid hitting the head with objects. Patients should avoid sleeping on their backs for at least a few days. Some people experience numbness or sensations of tingling after surgery. Smokers should not lift heavy objects such as cars or suitcases. Smoking can delay healing and increase the likelihood of complications.
The amount of surgery performed will affect the extent of swelling. Swelling may occur on the cheeks and face as well as the eyelids. This is the body's natural response to surgery. It will peak between two-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.
