    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Facial Rejuvenation
    • Minimally Invasive Procedures

    Background:

    • Coronal approach forehead lifts require significant skin resection, posing challenges in determining adequate excision.
    • Existing forehead rhytidoplasty techniques can be invasive with potential for visible scarring.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore an alternative forehead rhytidoplasty procedure to overcome the limitations of the coronal approach.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of the endoscopic forehead lift for achieving natural eyebrow elevation and forehead contouring.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized an endoscopic approach for forehead and eyebrow lifting.
    • Performed minimal incisions for access.
    • Disrupted the continuity of forehead and glabella muscles to achieve a smooth aesthetic.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved a natural eyebrow lift without the need for skin excision.
    • Provided a smooth forehead appearance.
    • Demonstrated utility in patients with prominent foreheads or prior forehead rhytidoplasty.

    Conclusions:

    • The endoscopic forehead lift is an effective alternative for treating the aging forehead and glabella.
    • This technique offers a less invasive option with natural-looking results.
    • Further development and study are warranted for this emerging procedure.
