All About Endoscopic Forehead Lifts!

Hello.

This is Vibe Plastic Surgery.

​

​

The forehead, located at the uppermost part of the face,

is one of the important areas that determines your overall impression.

As wearing masks has become

a daily routine due to COVID-19 recently, rather than the lower face,

more and more people are looking to care for the upper face, such as the eyes and forehead.

As a result, various age groups from their 20s and 30s

to their 70s

are frequently visiting Vibe Plastic Surgery.

​

What is a Forehead Lift?

​

An endoscopic forehead lift involves precise and fine dissection

right down to just above the eyebrows,

lifting the entire forehead and eye area

to achieve a facial lifting effect.

By closely observing nerves and blood vessels through an endoscope

during the procedure, safety is enhanced,

and concerns about scarring can be minimized.

​

Why an Endoscopic Forehead Lift is Necessary

​

Wrinkles usually develop from aging,

but due to certain facial expressions or habits when opening the eyes,

forehead wrinkles, ptosis, and sagging eyebrows can also occur.

Thus, even among those in their 20s and 30s,

we can see cases where facial wrinkles are a concern.

In such cases, a forehead lift surgery is often performed.

​

Endoscopic Forehead Lift is Recommended for These People!

​

- Those with ptosis

When the eyelids cover the pupils, it can look aesthetically sleepy

and often causes discomfort by obstructing the field of vision.

Because the strength to open the eyes is insufficient,

people tend to strain their forehead or eyebrow muscles to open their eyes,

which leads to the formation of forehead and glabellar wrinkles.

This can be improved through a forehead lift.

​

- Those needing simultaneous improvement of deep wrinkles and sagging skin

When not only wrinkles appear but skin elasticity also decreases,

causing the eyebrows to gradually droop downwards,

the existing double eyelid lines become hidden,

and the distance between the eyes and eyebrows narrows,

giving a heavy or frustrated impression.

In such cases, through a forehead lift,

the overall impression can be improved.

​

- Those with asymmetrical eyebrow positions

If the positions of the eyebrows are asymmetrical,

the position of each eyebrow can be meticulously adjusted

to make them look even.

Additionally, even if the eyes and eyebrows are too close together causing a heavy look,

correcting this by pulling upwards through a forehead lift

can open up the eyes and improve

the previously heavy impression.

​

​

Through a Full HD endoscope at the hairline,

the forehead skin is finely dissected down to just above the eyebrows.

After lifting the forehead skin upwards,

using an implant (Endotine) and threads,

it is firmly secured.

Because the incision site is made very finely

along the hairline, it is barely visible,

so you do not need to worry about scarring.

​

Precautions Before a Forehead Lift

​

An endoscopic forehead lift may seem like a somewhat simple surgical method,

but since it is also a plastic surgery procedure, you must judge carefully

when deciding on the surgery.

Furthermore, because the forehead is an area where blood vessels and nerve tissues are complexly

intertwined, it is best to have a thorough consultation with an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon

to listen to the surgical plan

before making a decision.

​

​

At Vibe Plastic Surgery,

we implement a dedicated system by our chief board-certified plastic surgeon,

and with a thorough infection prevention system, including air showers,

as well as installing CCTVs inside the operating rooms,

we place a high priority on safety.

In addition, all rooms including consultation rooms, operating rooms, and recovery rooms

are prepared as single private rooms,

allowing you to use them more comfortably and privately.
