There are different types of brow lifts. During consultation our Surgeon, Dr. Chartchai will examine you, and discuss your options to help you choose the one that is best for you.

Dr. Chartchai and Dr Oumyos are experienced in the major brow lifting techniques: the minimal incision brow lift; the endoscopic brow lift; the brow lift through an upper eyelid incision; and the open or traditional brow lift. Excellent results can be achieved with each method provided the right method is selected. Dr. Chartchai or Dr Oumyos will discuss with you the most appropriate technique for you and choose what is best for the outcome you want:

• • The Minimal Incision (short scar) Brow Lift is a very effective way to obtain the desired elevation of the lateral brow and crows feet area with only a small incision within the hairline or just above the hairline.
  • The Endoscopic Brow Lift is almost the exact same as the minimal incision brow lift except Dr. Chartchai uses an endoscope. The endoscope helps him visualize the dissection, what needs to be lifted, and what muscle needs to be severed to eradicate the frown lines. The incisions are within the scalp.
  • The Brow Lift through an upper eyelid is best performed at the same time as an upper blepharoplasty. During this procedure, the corrugator muscle is severed and fat may be redistributed or removed. This type of brow lift does not raise the brows as much as the others but it is an effective way to get rid of the “furrows” without making another incision.
  • The Open (Coronal) Brow Lift involves a very long incision usually within the scalp but may be done at the hairline. It is useful when there is a significant amount of loose skin within the forehead and the eyebrows have descended a great deal. This type of brow lift, if not carefully and circumspectly done, can result in a wide-eyed look or excessively large forehead.
