Question:
Is there such a thing as a mini browlift?
Answer:
There are many different ways to lift the brow. The more traditional approach involves an incision across the top of the scalp, from ear to ear. Fortunately, this is a technique that has been replaced by less invasive techniques. We perform a modification of an endoscopic browlift, with small incisions hidden in the hairline. Although this is not truly a mini browlift, it achieves an excellent correction of a drooping brow with all the benefits of a minimally invasive approach.
