When you look at yourself in the mirror, are you concerned about how pronounced the lines on your forehead are?
Have your friends come to you with concern over your emotional state due to your drooping eyebrows?
You may want to start considering getting a forehead lift or an endoscopic brow lift to get that problem fixed.
Likely, though, the possibility of getting sutures on your forehead will not seem appealing to you. The next treatment you might be considering is Botox for your brow. You must get another set of injections to maintain your appearance because the effects of Botox diminish after a period of four to six months.
A solution that lasts longer than that is what you are looking for. How about getting an Endotine Brow Lift instead?
What is an Endotine Brow Lift?
Using MultiPoint Technology (MPTTM), the Endotine Brow Lift helps your facial tissues by giving them more points of contact once they are repositioned. The facial tissues lift and shape the brow by being placed onto the small tines of an endotine, which is a small device made from a co-polymer. With the help of the small tines on the device, the tension on the tissues is redistributed, aiding the tightening and strengthening of the skin. Within six months, the endotines melt into your body, and your facial tissues are now attached to your skull at the new position.
Using only small incisions, a qualified plastic surgeon affixes the endotines onto the patient’s brow. Then, the surgeon frees the tissues from the skull and attaches them to the tines of the endotine to achieve the desired effect. One minute is all it takes for an experienced surgeon to attach an endotine onto the skull.
What makes the Endotine Brow Lift different
So, what are the advantages of the Endotine Brow Lift compared to the other forms of brow lifts? Incidences of tissue tearing are reduced because the tines of the endotine give more places for the tissue to hold on to. Compared to the endoscopic brow lift which uses screws, the endotines do not cause irritating wounds. Loss of hair due to the operation is non-existent because screws aren’t used. Due to the fact that no large sutures are required, damage to hair follicles that leads to hair loss is minimal. Within a four to six month period, the endotines are absorbed by the body, giving the patient no reason to return to have them removed.
Having the Endotine Brow Lift performed on you does include some risks. You may experience an infection or have a problem while the wounds heal. The patient may be sensitive to the co-polymer that the endotine is made from and this may cause thinning hair or skin scarring. Weeks after the operation, some patients have reported that they still feel the endotines. Surgeons recommend that patients refrain from exercise, facials, and other activities that may lead to the tissues of the scalp to detach from the endotines.
Endotine Brow Lift candidates
Some people are still not eligible for the Endotine Brow Lift. It may prove unsafe to perform the Endotine Brow Lift on people who are allergic to the material the endotine is made of, people who have thin skin on their scalps and foreheads, and people with thin, fragile bones. Since the foreheads and brows of obese males are very thick, these facial tissues may lose its grip of the tines of the endotines.
