Forehead lift is a surgical procedure for correcting wrinkles and sagging in the forehead area. This process is often preferred to reverse the effects of aging or to get a younger look.
Forehead lift is usually done under general anesthesia, so that the patient is drugged and unconscious. In some cases, local anesthesia and sedation can also be used.
Incisions made with hidden hair sutures in the scalp are usually made on the forehead hairline or within the scalp. This way, the traces of the incisions are less noticeable.
The surgeon gently removes the skin in the forehead area and the tissues under it. This way, the wrinkles on the forehead are corrected and the dangling skin is stretched.
During the forehead stretching process, it can also be reshaped or corrected as needed. This helps the forehead to get a younger and fresher look.
After the procedure is completed, the surgeon carefully closes the incisions. This is usually done using hair stitches and care is taken to keep the marks as hidden as possible.
Forehead Lift Recovery Process
A recovery process is expected, which can take several weeks after the forehead lift. The first few days there may be mild pain, swelling, and bruising. When wound healing is complete, a younger and more dynamic forehead appearance is usually achieved.
Eyebrow lift includes some risks, as with any surgical procedure. These can be infection, wound healing problems, loss of sensation, scars or post-surgical complications. Therefore, if you are considering this procedure, it is important to discuss with an experienced plastic surgeon and discuss the risks and benefits in detail.
