  • Traditional (coronal) brow lift. Incision along or just behind the hairline for full access to underlying tissue (source).
  • Endoscopic brow lift. Small incisions hidden in the hairline with camera-guided adjustment of underlying structures, described as resulting in smaller scars and quicker recovery (source, source).
