Endoscopic Forehead Lift for Improving Wrinkles Around the Eyes

The effects of an endoscopic forehead lift can influence the entire upper face, so it is a procedure preferred across a wide age range, from people in their 20s to middle-aged people in their 50s and 60s.

To put it simply, a forehead lift is a method of lifting the forehead skin through a forehead lift procedure.

As the forehead skin is smoothed, forehead wrinkles, glabellar lines, bridge-of-the-nose wrinkles, and crow’s feet may improve, and when the distance between the eyes and eyebrows is short and the upper eyelids are thick, lifting the forehead skin can naturally bring improvement.

Even in cases where there is a double eyelid line but a sleepy-looking eye shape or a heavy-looking eye shape that could not be improved with eyelid correction, an endoscopic forehead lift can offer a clearer and more defined eye appearance.

However, because eye shapes differ from person to person, a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is very important for an accurate diagnosis.

Many forehead lifts are performed using endoscopic equipment.

With endoscopic equipment, a minimally invasive incision provides sufficient visibility, allowing highly precise dissection and creating expectations for a natural hairline and forehead shape.

At the Sinsa Station endoscopic forehead lift clinic, the procedure is also performed with precision using endoscopic equipment, and ultra-fine cannulas are used to minimize the incision size and help with a quicker recovery.

In our clinic, the incision for the endoscopic forehead lift is made through five openings behind the hairline.

Using a forehead-lift-specific endoscope, the forehead skin tissue is sufficiently dissected up to the eyebrow area, and the eyebrow and wrinkle muscles are removed to help improve wrinkles around the eyes.

The forehead skin is pulled toward the back of the head to improve forehead wrinkles, and it is firmly fixed with Endotine to prevent sagging again.

There are broadly two fixation methods: Endotine and suture fixation. At our clinic, fixation is performed using genuine FDA-approved Endotine.

Endotine is a material that is absorbed by the body after a certain amount of time. In the beginning, it may be felt under the skin, but over time the foreign-body sensation and palpability disappear, allowing a return to daily life without major discomfort.

A key point in an endoscopic forehead lift is dissection. If the dissection is performed well, the maintenance period can be extended regardless of the fixation method or incision method.

The way patients can check this is by looking at the duration of the results.

If someone around you has undergone an endoscopic forehead lift long ago, it may be easy to verify, but for most people that may not be the case.

A simple way to check is to visit a clinic you are considering and review before-and-after photos and videos of forehead lift procedures performed long ago.

To improve the safety and satisfaction of an endoscopic forehead lift, thorough and careful consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in forehead lifts is important.

It should not be the same approach for everyone; a 1:1 customized design and plan must be applied so that satisfaction can be improved for each individual.
