Temporal Browlift in Cleveland, Ohio

• Temporal browlift is a type of browlift or forehead lift that address the lateral (sides) of the forehead and eyebrow.
• Incisions are hidden in the hairline.
• Temporal brow lift can be performed endoscopically or threw small incisions. Both methods are considered minimally invasive.
• Unlike endoscopic browlift or forehead lift, temporal browlift does not lift the central (area over the nose and frown lines) brow and forehead.

Who is a Candidate for Temporal Browlift?

• Healthy patients with appropriate expectations seeking to the lateral forehead, malar cheeks and temporal area are good candidates.
• Temporal browlift is often performed as part of a comprehensive facial rejuvenation and frequently performed with eyelid surgery.
• This procedure is commonly performed with facelift procedures, including deep plane facelift and mini facelift.

How is Temporal Browlift Performed?

Temporal brow lift is often performed under general anesthesia, especially when performed as a complimentary procedure to facelift or eyelid surgery. Although, this may be performed under local anesthesia or with IV sedation.

Incisions are hidden within the hairline and gentle lifting of the tissues of the lateral brow and temporal area is gently performed. The dense attachments of the forehead and temporal brow are dissected free of the orbital rim (bone around the eye) and zygomatic arch (cheek bone).

Permanent sutures are used to suspend, or lift, the brow and lateral forehead into a higher, more rejuvenated and youthful, appearance.

How is Temporal Browlift different from Endoscopic Forehead Lift?

The main difference between temporal browlift and endoscopic forehead lift is the extent of dissection and areas of rejuvenation.

Endoscopic forehead lift typically involves lifting and repositioning of the central forehead, removal or weakening of the muscles responsible for frown lines, in addition to rejuvenation of the lateral forehead and temporal area.

Endoscopic forehead lift often requires the use of dissolvable implants to hold the lifted forehead in a higher, more youthful, position while healing takes place. Typically temporal brow lift does not require the use of bone-anchored implants for healing.

Recovery from temporal brow lift

• Prescription pain medicine is usually required for 3-5 days.
• Patients may shower and wash the hair on the second postoperative day.
• Most patients are able to return to work, school and social activity in about one week after temporal browlift.
• Full physical activity may be resumed at one month.
