Forehead lift
Forehead lift in Munich and Starnberg with PD Dr. Max Geishauser
Are you interested in a forehead lift or a temple lift in Munich or Starnberg? Let the plastic surgeon PD Dr. Max Geishauser advise you.
Two technically similar procedures are possible here, which, however, lead to completely different aesthetic effects
Procedure of the temple lift
The temple lift is a procedure in which the resulting scar lies behind the lateral hairline, as it is very inconspicuous. Nevertheless, it can lead to a considerable aesthetic rejuvenation. The tightening effect extends to the outer corner of the eye and can also include cheeks to eyebrows. Since the underlying anatomical structures are very resilient, the effect can last for many years. In addition, it is quite low-risk when performed correctly, rarely leads to visible bruising and thus often allows for short downtime.
Alone or in combination with:
Forehead lift – Upper/lower blepharoplasty – Midface lift – Facelift
Procedure of the forehead lift
The forehead lift stiffens the forehead skin, can lift the eyebrows and tighten the upper eyelids. In addition, depending on the technique, the hairline can be slightly displaced.
The forehead lift requires meticulous planning and execution and a fine aesthetic sense. Excessive tightening results in a “frightened look” with excessive lifting of the eyebrows. However, if the right balance is found, extraordinarily un-operated-looking results with a considerable rejuvenating effect can be achieved, often with simultaneous tightening of the upper eyelids.
