Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Oculoplastic Surgery
  • Facial Aesthetic Surgery

Background:

  • Forehead aesthetics are crucial for facial appearance.
  • Traditional endoscopic brow lifts can be invasive.
  • Minimally invasive techniques are sought for brow and forehead rejuvenation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a nonendoscopic brow lift technique.
  • To assess aesthetic outcomes and patient satisfaction.
  • To determine the safety profile of the procedure.

Main Methods:

  • A case series of 12 patients undergoing the procedure.
  • Utilized small scalp and upper eyelid blepharoplasty incisions.
  • Included brow/forehead elevation and protractor myectomy.

Main Results:

  • All patients achieved aesthetically pleasing brow and forehead lifts.
  • Significant reduction in vertical and horizontal glabellar creases observed.
  • Minor complications included prolonged ecchymosis and asymmetric lid folds in one patient each.

Conclusions:

  • The small incision nonendoscopic brow lift is an effective technique.
  • It provides a viable alternative to endoscopic brow lift.
  • The procedure yields satisfactory aesthetic results with manageable complications.
