Endoscopic Brow Lift in Miami

Endoscopic Brow Lift

Many people are self-conscious when it comes to their facial appearance. As we grow older, we experience forehead wrinkling, aged appearance, eyebrow drooping that makes others feel worried about having a surprised, tired, or annoyed look, which makes them appear older than their actual age.

Thanks to the revolutionary plastic surgery procedure, the aforementioned problems can now be achieved through an endoscopic brow lift procedure. It works in improving the symmetry of your eyebrow, change the shape of your eyebrow, and decrease the function of your muscles which cause brow wrinkling.

A brow lift is an aesthetic plastic surgery procedure being performed to correct the loss of soft tissue elasticity in the upper third of your face. Excessive sagging skin around your forehead is caused by some dropping of your brows and wrinkles on your forehead are removed by repositioning your underlying muscles and tissue. This creates a more youthful and refreshed look in the upper third area of your face. A brow lift can also be combined with a facelift.

On the other hand, endoscopy is done by inserting a flexible tube with a surgical instrument, specifically a lighted camera through a plastic surgery incision. At present, an endoscope is now being administered in many reconstructive and plastic surgery procedures. One of which is endoscopic brow lift plastic surgery where it gained widespread acceptance because of its faster healing as compared to a traditional facelift.

What is an endoscopic brow lift?

An endoscopic brow lift in Miami is a plastic surgery procedure that is minimally invasive performed under anesthesia. Dr. Carlos Spera—a board-certified plastic surgeon in Miami uses specialized plastic surgery equipment to release and gently elevate your brow tissue after making a series of small incisions hidden in your hair. This plastic surgery procedure involves faster healing time and less bruising as compared to the classic approach in a brow lift.

Endoscopic brow lift versus traditional brow lift

There are many brow lift plastic surgery in Miami to choose from to better meet your needs, By offering both traditional brow lift and endoscopic brow lift plastic surgery to his patients, Dr. Carlos Spera—a board-certified plastic surgeon in Miami can recommend the best techniques to help you achieve the optimal results you desire. With both plastic surgery techniques, brow lift surgery can help you restore your youthful lifts, smoothness, and softness to your brow and forehead area. The following is the comparison of an endoscopic brow lift to a traditional brow lift.

For the endoscopic brow lift plastic surgery technique, Dr. Spera will make tiny incisions hidden in your scalp. Then, he will carefully insert an endoscope through one of the incisions. It has a camera attached to a monitor that allows the plastic surgeon to see the underlying tissues easily without making long incisions.

By using the visual field provided by the endoscope and other incisions, Dr. Spera will adjust the tissues of your forehead to rejuvenate your appearance. He also places some small hooks underneath the skin of your eyebrow to hold them in place and lessen the risks of future sagging. Through endoscopic brow lift, it will smooth out frown lines and wrinkles in your forehead and raise your brows to a more attractive and youthful.

For a traditional standard or open brow lift, Dr. Spera will make an incision behind your hairline. The incision will go down up to your temporal regions. As compared to an endoscopic brow lift, it has a longer incision which provides full visual access to the area so that Dr. Spera can make the desired changes. He will then lift your eyebrows to a more youthful outlook and removes excess skin, pulling the remaining tissues taught; hence, making your forehead smoother.

Dr. Carlos Spera will recommend you the most ideal technique based on your needs as evaluated during your initial consultation.
