Key benefits of brow lift surgery
- Elevates the brows into a youthful position to deliver a more refreshed, youthful appearance
- Smooths horizontal forehead lines and the vertical lines between the brows
- Improves the appearance of sagging folds between the brows and lids
Unique Features
- Cohesive Silicone Gel: Maintains shape even if the implant is ruptured, providing a soft, natural feel.
- Micro-textured Surface: Reduces friction between the implant and surrounding tissue, which may lower the risk of complications such as capsular contracture. This texture is also designed to enhance stability and integrate better with breast tissue.
- RFID Safety Identifier: Each implant contains a unique RFID tag for tracking and verification, giving patients enhanced safety and peace of mind.
Dr. Mentz’s surgical technique for a brow lift
Triple board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Henry Mentz has used an endoscopic technique for his brow lift procedure since 1991. This technique allows him to use tiny incisions made within the hairline in order to re-position the skin and the underlying tissues and muscles of the forehead. This technique ensures that scarring is minimal and well-concealed. In addition, the endoscopic brow lift technique allows Dr. Mentz to restore a rejuvenated look to the face with the aid of a tiny fiber-optic tube that is attached to a camera.
After making a one-eighth of an inch incisions at (or within) the hairline, the endoscope’s small video camera allows Dr. Mentz to view the internal structures of the forehead. This makes a long incision — commonly used in other brow lift methods — unnecessary. Dr. Mentz then re-positions the skin, underlying tissues, and muscles of the forehead to smooth away expression lines and gently elevate the brows to give the face a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
An endoscopic brow lift is completed in 1 to 2 hours under general anesthesia. It is performed at Dr. Mentz’s private AAAASF-certified SurgiCentre in Houston, Texas under the supervision of a board-certified anesthesiologist.
