Forehead (Brow) Lift
Minimize forehead creases, drooping eyebrows, hooding over eyes, furrowed forehead and frown lines by removing excess tissue, altering muscles and tightening forehead skin. May be done using traditional technique, with an incision across the top of the head just behind hairline. More modest improvement can often be achieved using an endoscope with 3-5 small incisions above hairline.
