Forehead Lifting

One of the most important things to consider when choosing the forehead lift method is undoubtedly the location of your hairline. If your hairline, where your scalp meets your balding forehead, is too far ahead, incisions can be made under the hair for forehead lift. This condition can be treated with an open method, where the entire forehead is stretched through the hair, called a "bicoronal" incision, or with a closed method called "endoscopic" by entering the forehead from 3 or 5 points.

In the operating room, the surgeon performs the surgery to lift the skin on the forehead. General anesthesia is used during the surgery. For this reason, the anesthetist checks the patient before the surgery. In forehead lift aesthetic surgery, incisions must be made on the scalp. This method is also recommended if you want to hide any surgical scars after the operation. Then, the excess skin on the forehead is cut and the muscles that cause wrinkles are weakened. It is a cosmetic procedure that is frequently used and often gives good results. Most forehead lifts take between one and one and a half hours.

There may be some swelling, bruising and mild pain in the first 3-4 days after forehead lift surgery. Your doctor will give you painkillers for pain after the operation. On the fourth day, you can return to your normal life.

Swelling and bruising of the forehead is likely after surgery. To reduce bruising and swelling, the head is lifted up and a cold compress is applied on the area.
