Abstract:
The endoscopic brow lift is now widely accepted in aesthetic plastic surgery, and various fixation techniques have been described in the literature. New developments and technology have expanded the use of resorbable devices in different surgical specialties, including plastic surgery. The authors present a technique that offers simple, fast, and reliable forehead fixation for endoscopic brow lifts using resorbable tacks. Successful facial rejuvenation was obtained in the majority of the patients without complications, need for follow-up visits to tighten the flap fixation system, or secondary procedures to extract the fixation system.
