A recent study in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal surveyed ASPS members to understand how brow lift surgery has evolved over the past two decades, showing a trend towards less invasive procedures.
While endoscopic brow lifts remain the most popular technique, surgeons are increasingly favoring hairline and isolated temporal approaches. This shift reflects a growing preference for minimal scarring and faster recovery times.
The survey also highlights the rise of neuromodulators (like Botox) as a non-surgical alternative. In fact, nearly 30% of surgeons reported that neuromodulators have significantly replaced traditional brow lifts for some patients.
Key Takeaways
- Minimally invasive techniques reign supreme. Hairline and temporal brow lifts offer effective results with less downtime. Mastering these approaches is crucial to stay competitive.
- Embrace neuromodulators as a powerful tool. Neuromodulators can address early signs of aging and provide a non-surgical option for some brow lift patients.
- Stay ahead of the curve. Patient preferences continue to evolve. Continuously refine your surgical techniques and expand your non-surgical offerings to meet the growing demand for less invasive rejuvenation.
By understanding these trends and adapting your practice accordingly, you can ensure you’re providing your patients with the most cutting-edge brow lift solutions.
