Endoscopic Browlift: A Modern Technique
An endoscopic brow lift is a cutting-edge approach to traditional brow lifting. This minimally invasive procedure involves making a few small incisions behind the hairline. A tiny camera, known as an endoscope, is inserted to guide the surgeon as they reposition the muscles and lift the brows. This technique reduces the risk of visible scarring, swelling, and bruising, and promotes a quicker recovery.
Temple Lift: Rewind the Clock
The temple lift, or lateral brow lift, specifically targets the outer portion of the brow and the area around the temples. This procedure can reduce crow’s feet and lift sagging brows, creating a more open, friendly, and youthful expression. The incision is hidden within the hairline, making the scars virtually invisible. As opposed to an Endoscopic brow lift the central part is not elevated.
Non-Surgical Alternatives to Temple Lift
While surgical procedures like the temple lift offer long-lasting results, there are non-surgical alternatives available for those not ready for surgery. Botox and dermal fillers can help to temporarily lift the brows and smooth out wrinkles, providing a subtler enhancement. However, they do not deliver the same level of dramatic and long-lasting results as a temple lift.
Temple and Brow Lift Recovery and Aftercare: What to Expect
After a brow or temple lift, patients can expect some swelling and bruising, which should subside within two weeks. Pain can be managed with tylenol and prescribed medication. The sutures are typically removed within a week post-surgery. It is important to follow your double board-certified facial plastic surgeon’s specific aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery.

Dr. Patrick Cleveland, is a respected surgeon with a track record of excellent results.

Endoscopic Browlift: Myths and Facts
There are many myths surrounding endoscopic brow lifts, such as the misconception that the procedure will result in an overly surprised look. The truth is, a skilled surgeon can provide subtle, natural-looking results that merely refresh the face. The procedure does not affect the upper eyelid directly; it lifts the brow, reducing the appearance of upper eyelid hooding. Another common misconception is that a browlift leaves a large scar. Older style browlifts did, but utilizing modern techniques several small incisions are made which easily hide in the hairline.
Ideal Candidates for a Temple Lift
Ideal candidates for a temple lift are individuals experiencing sagging eyebrows and wrinkles around the temples and upper eyelid area. This procedure can particularly benefit those who have undergone a blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and still want to address droopiness around the brow area.
Does a Browlift Affect the Eyelid?
While a browlift procedure primarily targets the forehead and eyebrows, it can indirectly improve the appearance of the upper eyelid area. By elevating the brow, the procedure may reduce the perceived heaviness or drooping of the upper eyelid, providing a more open, alert, and youthful appearance. However, for patients with significant eyelid sagging or puffiness, a separate procedure known as blepharoplasty may be recommended.
