Direct Browlift
LSA Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Clinic is the first to offer Direct Browlift in the Philippines and has been performing this procedure for a year now.
- This procedure elevates eyebrows by removing excess skin above the eyebrows.
- The surgeon makes incisions directly above the eyebrow and removes excess skin.
- The incisions are closed with fine sutures.
What is Direct Browlift or Eye Brow Lift
Popular procedure for men and women wishing to reduce wrinkles and return a more rested, youthful look to their foreheads, this is often performed in conjunction with a face lift, eyelid surgery, dermal fillers, and/or skin treatments.
Procedure
Typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, the brow lift procedure may take one to two hours. In its various formats, the coronal forehead lift has an incision starting at ear level running across the top of the head and down to the other ear. Hair will normally camouflage the scar since the incision is made well behind the hairline.
The mid-scalp or hairline lift technique is commonly recommended for people with high hairlines or high foreheads. In this, the incision is made at the junction of the forehead skin and the hairline and runs over the top of the head and from side to side. This avoids raising the hairline any higher when elevating your brow area.
