Endoscopic brow lift has become widely accepted as a procedure for restoring a youthful brow, as only three, hardly noticeable incisions of the scalp are needed for this subperiosteal dissection and final repositioning of the brow. It has become an acceptable technique, an alternative to the conventional technique or transcoronal browpexy. Endoscopic brow lift allows separation and repositioning of the periosteum of the orbital rims and zygomaxilla. In a 7-year period beginning September 1999, 350 patients underwent endoscopic brow lift. In these patients, we used our fixation approach, which was accomplished with an absorbable suture subperiosteally. Satisfactory forehead rejuvenation was obtained in all patients with correct eyebrow movement. Long-term results over 7 years confirm the strength and durability of our fixation approach. We consider this approach to be a simple, fast, and reliable fixation technique that establishes precise, secure, and direct brow fixation that allows satisfactory and long-lasting cosmetic results.
内窥镜额部提升术已被广泛接受,成为恢复年轻眉形的一种方法,因为这种骨膜下解剖和最终眉部重新定位只需要三个几乎看不见的头皮切口。它已成为一种可接受的技术,是传统技术或冠状额部固定术的替代方法。内窥镜额部提升术可分离和重新定位眶缘和颧骨的骨膜。从 1999 年 9 月开始的 7 年期间,有 350 名患者接受了内窥镜额部提升术。在这些患者中,我们使用了我们的固定方法,即骨膜下可吸收缝线固定。所有患者的眉毛运动均正常,均获得了令人满意的额头年轻化效果。7 年以上的长期结果证实了我们固定方法的强度和耐久性。我们认为这种方法是一种简单、快速、可靠的固定技术,可实现精确、安全和直接的眉部固定,从而获得令人满意和持久的美容效果。
