Brow Lift

What are the risks?
There are both general and specific risks and Mr Banwell will talk to you in detail regarding these. General risks include bruising and swelling, bleeding, wound infection, problems with general anaesthetics, abnormal scarring and keloid scarring. Specific risks include altered or loss of sensation in the forehead or top of the scalp, numbness may be replaced by itching and this typically resolves within several months as the nerves heal, rarely permanent injury to nerves that control eyebrow movement resulting in asymmetry of the eyebrows, rarely both eyes may be swollen and shut for a few days, hairline may be slightly raised although the endoscopic technique procedure is less likely to cause this, while most deep wrinkles will look less obvious, some may be improved only slightly or not at all, rarely temporary hair loss may occur near the treated area, rarely hair thinning or permanent loss near the scar. The results of surgery may not meet your expectations and there may be the need for revisional surgery.
