Endotine Brow Lift (Forehead Lift)

Endotine Brow Lift is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses specialized bio-absorbable implants to lift drooping eyebrows and smooth forehead wrinkles via small incisions in the hairline. It provides a more refreshed and youthful appearance by repositioning the upper face tissues with long-lasting results.

Who it suits

Individuals with sagging eyebrows that make them look tired or angry.
People with deep forehead wrinkles or frown lines between the brows.
Those with heavy, drooping upper eyelids caused by brow descent.
Patients looking for a long-term alternative to Botox or temporary thread lifts.

Technique highlights

Uses Endotine, a specialized KFDA and US-FDA approved medical device for secure tissue fixation.
Endoscopic assistance allows for precise surgery through minimal incisions within the hairline.
Absorbable material that naturally dissolves in the body within one year while maintaining the lift.
Minimal downtime compared to traditional full brow lift surgery.

Surgical steps

Administration of IV sedation and local anesthesia for patient comfort.
Small, discreet incisions are made behind the hairline to hide future scars.
Using an endoscope, the surgeon separates the forehead tissues and identifies vital structures.
The Endotine device is inserted and fixed to the bone to hold the brow and forehead in the elevated position.
Incisions are closed with sutures or medical staples.

Recovery & aftercare

The surgery takes approximately 1 hour under IV sedation; no overnight hospital stay is required.
Stitches are typically removed about 7 days after the procedure.
Patients can return to most daily activities almost immediately, though heavy exercise should be avoided for 2-4 weeks.
Swelling usually peaks at 48 hours and subsides significantly within 1-2 weeks.

Risks & things to consider

Temporary numbness or a pulling sensation on the forehead or scalp is common during the first few months.
Possible minor swelling, bruising, or localized infection as with any surgical procedure.
Patients with very thin scalp skin should consult with a surgeon to ensure Endotine won't be palpable.
