Eyebrow Lift in Turkey

Brow lift can be done in several ways; It can be done with the rope hanging method and endoscopically with forehead lift.

Eyebrow Thread Lift

Eyebrow thread lift is the process of pulling the eyebrow upwards by means of a small incision made from the scalp and a suture that goes down to the eyebrow. It is an easy, practical, and risk-free method.

It is a procedure that can be carried out under local anaesthetic.. There is no need for dressing as there is no scar after the eyebrow thread lift application. After the procedure, depending on the age of the individual, they can get lowered again. After a short time, the application may have to be renewed.

Endoscopic Eyebrow Lift

The endoscopic brow lift method is performed subcutaneously. A closed operation is performed under the eyebrow skin with the help of a telescope. The tip of the telescope is extended through the small incision made in the scalp. Here, mimic wrinkles are intervened and the muscles that cause the person to look low eyebrows are corrected. The person will have the eyebrow image that he/she wants, and which is suitable for him/her. There is no problem in performing endoscopic brow lift surgery and other aesthetic surgeries together.
