Reveal Your True Self

What is an Open Brow Lift?

The Open Brow Lift is a pivotal component of feminization surgeries aimed at feminizing and rejuvenating the upper face by creating a softer, arched, feminine brow. Unlike endoscopic techniques, the open approach necessitates a longer incision. There are two options for incisions: the coronal incision (in the hair) and the pretrichial (in front of the hairline). An open approach allows greater control of the brows compared to endoscopic techniques, facilitating precise adjustments to the underlying tissues and muscles. It is often done at the same time as brow bossing reduction, orbital rim reduction, and/or hairline advancement, but can be done as a stand-alone technique. This technique fosters significant and enduring outcomes, ensuring a harmonious and feminine facial contour.

What Is The Difference Between The Coronal Incision And The Pretrichial Incision?

Both coronal brow lifts and pretrichial brow lifts are surgical procedures used to elevate the eyebrows and rejuvenate the upper face, but they differ in their incision location and impact on the hairline.

Coronal Brow Lift

    • Incision: A coronal brow lift is performed with an incision made across the top of the head, from ear to ear, following the curve of the scalp (coronal plane). Dr Rodman creates this incision with a significant curve and gentle S-shaped curves, so no obvious line is visible from any hairstyle. 
    • Hairline: This approach will elevate the hairline along with the browlift
  • Benefits:
      • The incision is easier to hide while healing.
  • Drawbacks:
    • Unintended hairline elevation might not be desirable for everyone.

Pretrichial Brow Lift

    • Incision: A pretrichial brow lift utilizes an incision placed directly in front of the hairline
    • Hairline: This approach aims to minimize impact on the hairline and will shorten the forehead. 
  • Benefits:
      • It reduces the forehead. Extra skin after lifting the brows is removed, making the distance between the eyebrows and the hairline shorter. 
      • It can be done at the same time as a hairline advancement for patients who wish to have additional decrease in forehead height. 
  • Drawbacks:
    • The scar generally heals very well but may be visible while the patient heals.

Choosing Between the Procedures

Ultimately, the best choice between a coronal and pretrichial brow lift depends on your individual needs and aesthetic goals. Here are some factors to consider:

  • Hairline concerns: If you have a low hairline and want to avoid further elevation, a pretrichial lift might be preferable.
  • Scarring concerns: If minimizing scarring is a priority, a coronal lift offers a more discreet incision location.

Consultation is Key

In your consultation with Dr Rodman, she will discuss your specific situation and help you determine which brow lift technique is best for you. She will evaluate your facial anatomy, discuss your desired outcome, and explain the risks and benefits of each procedure in detail.

Feminine Empowerment

Open Brow Lift Benefits

  • Attain a Youthful Radiance: By lifting the brows, a softer, brighter, younger, and more feminine look is achieved. An Open Brow Lift instills a renewed and rejuvenated appearance, accentuating your feminine allure.
  • Enduring Results: Benefit from the enduring effects of an Open Brow Lift, with results that endure for years, perpetuating a heightened sense of femininity.
  • Personalized Treatment: Dr. Rodman tailors each Open Brow Lift procedure to address your individual concerns and aspirations, ensuring results that authentically enhance your femininity.

Does Dr. Rodman Use Any Special Techniques To Help Reduce Scarring?

Dr Rodman does several things to reduce the appearance of scars.

Trichophytic Closure: In the trichophytic technique, the surgeon modifies one edge of the wound before stitching. This is done by beveling one edge of the cut. The top edge at the hairline is angled with a bevel cut, creating a slanted edge. The beveled edge is then overlapped with the opposing edge. A key benefit of the trichophytic closure is that the beveling allows for existing hair follicles to grow directly through the scar, making it much less noticeable.

She also secures the browlift in a deep layer. She creates small tunnels in the superficial bone of the skull to anchor the brow in its new position. This ensures that the brow stays in place for many years to come. It also holds the tension of the browlift, and removes all tension from the incision. A tension-free closure is the key to a well-healing incision and minimally visible scar.

Your Open Brow Lift Procedure

On the day of your Open Brow Lift procedure, our compassionate team will welcome you into our state-of-the-art surgical facility. Dr. Rodman will review your treatment plan, address any questions, and ensure your comfort before commencing the procedure. The Open Brow Lift procedure typically encompasses anesthesia administration, an incision along the hairline, meticulous tissue adjustment, and closure, culminating in a seamless transformation that epitomizes feminine elegance.

The procedure for Open Brow Lift usually involves a series of steps:

  • Anesthesia: You will be administered either intravenous sedation or general anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
  • Incision: Dr. Rodman will make a discreet incision, either coronal or pretrichial pending what the patient decides. This incision allows for optimal access to the underlying tissues and muscles.
  • Tissue Adjustment: Dr. Rodman will carefully lift and reposition the brow tissues, creating a feminine shape and restoring a more youthful appearance.
  • Closure: Once the desired results have been achieved, the incisions will be meticulously closed with sutures or staples, leaving minimal scarring that is easily concealed.

The entire procedure typically takes approximately one to two hours to complete, depending on the complexity of your case.

Open Brow Lift Results

Following your Open Brow Lift procedure, you can expect some initial swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which are easily managed with prescribed medications and cold compresses. While you will notice immediate improvement in the appearance of your brows and forehead, the final results will continue to improve as swelling subsides and the tissues settle into their new position.

With proper care and maintenance, your Open Brow Lift results can last for many years, helping you look and feel more confident and rejuvenated. Dr. Rodman will provide detailed post-operative instructions to help you achieve the best possible outcome and will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure your satisfaction with the results.

Open Brow Lift Recovery and Aftercare

When recuperating from your Open Brow Lift, it is crucial to diligently adhere to your post-operative guidelines to ensure a seamless and successful recovery. You may need to:

  • Adhere to prescribed medications as instructed to manage discomfort and lower the chances of infection.
  • Refrain from vigorous activities and heavy lifting for a few weeks to minimize swelling and aid in the healing process.

  • Shield your incisions from direct sunlight and excessive heat, as these can impede the healing process.
  • Keep scheduled follow-up appointments to track your progress and address any queries or concerns.
