What You Should Know about Endoscopic Brow Lift Treatment
At Springs Aesthetics, we understand your desire to maintain a vibrant, youthful appearance. Our Colorado Springs, Colorado, medical spa offers a range of surgical and nonsurgical treatments to help you age with grace and beauty. Among these is an endoscopic eyebrow lift treatment to rejuvenate your upper facial features. In this post, Dr. John Burroughs addresses your questions and concerns about this procedure.
What is an endoscopic brow Lift?
An endoscopic brow lift is a minimally invasive surgery designed to raise sagging eyebrows, reposition forehead tissues, and smooth out frown lines to improve your upper facial appearance. Unlike the ear-to-ear incisions commonly used for forehead plastic surgery, an endoscopic brow lift requires only small incisions to allow a small camera (endoscope) to be inserted. This camera guides Dr. Burroughs in adjusting your brows and forehead muscles and tissues to complete your brow lift treatment.
Who’s a good candidate for an endoscopic brow lift?
Prospective candidates for this treatment are generally between 30 and 50 years, as this is typically when signs of sagging brows, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles appear. The procedure is more effective when performed on people with good skin elasticity, as the underlying tissue is repositioned rather than tightened.

Where are the incisions made for this treatment, and will I notice scars afterward?
Dr. Burroughs will make several small incisions behind your hairline to create space for the endoscope. This innovative device gives him a clear view of the muscles and tissues that need to be repositioned to complete the treatment successfully.
As the incisions are quite small and hidden within your hairline, the scars are practically invisible once the incisions heal. You’ll be so pleased with the results of your procedure that you won’t have time to worry about scar tissue!
How long is the recovery time for an endoscopic brow lift?
Full recovery from this procedure takes several weeks. You may experience minor swelling and/or bruising in your forehead area for the first week of your recovery. These symptoms generally subside on their own within 1-2 weeks. By week three, you should be completely healed.

How long do the results last?
By adopting a healthy lifestyle and good skin care habits after your treatment, you can enjoy your refreshed look for up to 10 years. The results aren’t permanent, as you’ll continue to age after your procedure. Occasional touch-up treatments with Botox or other cosmetic procedures can help you maintain your bright-eyed, youthful appearance longer.
Can I combine an endoscopic brow lift with other cosmetic surgical treatments?
Absolutely! This procedure can easily be combined with other facial treatments, such as a mini-face lift, lip lift, or eyelid surgery, to revitalize your overall appearance.
