Surgical Approach

Endoscopic Forehead Lift is a type of minimally invasive surgery. Make four incisions on the upper part of both sides of the forehead and within the hairline near the temple with wounds measuring just a little over 1cm. Then, place an elongated microscopic endoscope to view from an amplified external screen. Using a special endoscopic peeling instrument that penetrates the gap between the deep-laying facial tissue and bone, while avoiding the blood vessels and nerves, the periosteum is slowly peeled. Then, the “Endotine Forehead Device” is fixated in the depths of the soft tissue. The whole slice of tissue (fascia, muscle, and skin tissue) undergoes 3D stereoscopic lift and fixation. to the small wounds, postoperative bleeding and pain are greatly reduced, thereby minimizing postoperative discomfort.

Endoscopic Forehead Lift Fixation Method


Endoscopic Forehead Lift wounds are within the hairline. Four small incisions are made, each measuring only slightly over 1cm. Wounds are invisible, as if small moles are removed from the hairline. There is also little blood loss during surgery, and there is no need to place draining balls or hospitalization. Therefore, there is a short recovery period and greatly reduced swelling after surgery. Some people can even return to work after one or two days. It is commonly referred to as scarless lifting.

Q&A

Q:I had double eyelids when I was young, but they have become hidden double eyelids in recent year and the corners of my eyes are drooping. Should I undergo double eyelid surgery? I have heard Endoscopic Forehead Lift is the solution to my problem, but I know little about it?

A:Hidden double eyelid and eye corner drooping are normal signs of aging. Double eyelid surgery is not suitable if the distance between the eyebrow and the double eyelid is too close, as it will aggravate the eyebrow-pressing problem. Therefore, it is only temporary relief to the problem. Through the endoscopic forehead lift surgery, sagging tissues will be lifted to their original locations, thereby improving hidden double eyelid and eye corner drooping caused by tissue relaxation.


Q:Will there be much pain after the Endoscopic Forehead Lift?

A:Since nerves and vascular tissues can be precisely avoided through the microscopic instrument during Endoscopic Surgery, most customers only feel bloated or the tingling sensation of the scalp after surgery!


Q:How long is the recovery period after surgery? Can I work normally?

A:The postoperative recovery period is about 7-10 days. Since thickness of forehead tissues is thinner, the bloating will be greatly reduced. The bloating is similar to edema the next day if you drink more water before bedtime the previous day. If this is not an issue for you, you can work normally!


Q:My eyebrows are not symmetrical. How can I improve them so both sides look even?

A:Through Endoscopic Forehead Lift, our muscular tissues in the forehead can be clearly seen. We may make appropriate adjustment through endotine to make the eyebrows on both sides as asymmetrical as possible!


Q:Is Endoscopic Forehead Lift only for lifting eyes? Will my eyes turn into unnatural Chinky eyes?

A:Endoscopic Forehead Lift lifts upwards through the force of the endotine. Unlike traditional lifting surgery, it gives a more flat and firm feel. Also, Endoscopic Forehead Lift lifts drooping forehead tissues to restore the youthful look. Therefore, unnatural Chinky eyes will not happen!!


Q:My eyelids are drooping and are slightly obstructing my vision. Is there a way to solve the problem?

A:You can improve the problem through Endoscopic Forehead Lift. Do not mistake it to be a problem of the eyes and undergo double eyelid surgery, as it might cause your eyebrows to press the eyes as if they are flirtations. Although double eyelid surgery is a simple procedure, it may come with serious hidden problems. Please consult with more clinics to avoid regret!


Q:Does Endoscopic Forehead Lift involve skin removal?If not, where is the excess skin hidden?

A:Endoscopic Forehead Lift does not require skin tissue removal. After endotine fixation, excess skin tissues will be concealed in the scalp. Since the scalp has strong contraction, the excess skin will evenly contract and firm up after several days. Therefore, there is no need for skin removal.


Q:Will I have peacock tail eyes like those of a Chinese opera actor after Endoscopic Forehead Lift surgery?

A:Surgery generally will not lead to eye deformation or peacock tail eyes showing, but there may be slight swelling for several days after surgery, thus the temporary “peacock tail eye” appearance. After the swelling subsides, the eyes will gradually be returned to normal. OF course, they will appear more energized and profound!


Q:My forehead is elevated. Does Endoscopic Forehead Lift involve shaving the head? Will my forehead appear even more elevated after surgery?

A:Endoscopic Forehead Lift only produce very small wounds, about 1.5-2cm. Therefore, there is no need to shave the head. The surgery will restore the sagging tissues to their youthful locations, so the forehead will not appear higher.


Q:Can double eyelid surgery and nose lift be done at the same time in Endoscopic Forehead Lift?

A:It is not recommended, because the face will be slightly swollen after endoscopic lift. If Upper Blepharoplasty with Rhinoplasty is done at the same time, misjudgment might result due to the swelling. Moreover, forehead lift surgery will improve double eyelid or hidden double eyelid, so double eyelid surgery may not be necessary after surgery. However, if the eyelid skin is too long, the eyelid may need to be repaired after swelling is reduced after surgery depending on personal conditions.


Q:If the cheek tissues are too thick, will tissue removal be needed during Endoscopic Forehead Lift?

A:Endoscopic surgery does not involve any tissue excision or scraping. Fully consult with your doctor before surgery to understand the whole surgical procedure.
