This procedure corrects the sagging, heavy eyebrows that makes you look older. It effectively repositions the eyebrow and evens out the forehead to give an alert and youthful look. The ideal eyebrow for women should be arched upwards, and can be created with this technique. It is a more permanent procedure than muscle relaxant injections like Botox and lasts for many years. Small incisions are made behind the front hairline and the skin is pulled up to elevate the muscles of the eyebrow to the correct position.
A state-of-the-art technique uses an endoscope(camera) connected to a video monitor. This helps the surgeon work faster and more accurately, leaving virtually undetectable scars. Recovery is fast, the swelling and pain are much less as compared to the other open techniques. The results are comparable and at times even better than the open techniques.
BOTOX is injected into the muscles that depress the brow to relax them and lift the eyebrow into the right position. This is a 5-minute day care procedure, and you can return to work the same day. However, the effect lasts only 4-6 months, depending on the muscle strength of each individual.
