43.9 Complications
The possible complications depend on the technique and the choice of approach, also on the patient’s condition.
1.Based on the area of the incision, visible scarring or alopecia may occur.
2.The extension of the dissection may produce a neurological alteration with hypoesthesia or vascular damage caused by the occurrence of hematomas.
3.Other possible complications include:
Asymmetry or deformation of the brow with a surprised expression.
Excess or undercorrection of the frontal skin Injury to the facial nerve
Necrotic tissue Infection
43.10 Discussion
As a surgeon, it is important to acquire the experience in recognizing the most suitable approach or surgical technique that offers advantages and complies with the needs and expectations of each patient and to know that there is not a single approach that is useful for all cases.
Currently endoscopic surgery is an excellent option for the forehead-lift procedure, given its versatility,
advantages, and safety profile that allow optimum results in most patients. In cases when only the elevation of the brow tails and diminishing of the lateral furrows is required, it is possible to limit the dissection to a trough to single bilateral incisions that allows the suspension of this specific area.
Neither the effectiveness of the diverse suspension methods has been studied comparatively nor has its cost effectiveness has been analyzed. Currently there are different methods for anchorage such as nails, bone perforations to allow sutures, endothelial sutures [37], and multiple suture materials. The authors have only used Ethibond 3–0 for suspension, with favorable results.
43.11 Conclusions
Facial aging is a multifactor process, especially in the superior third of the face. Manipulation of this area must be integral in the process of rejuvenation. The chosen technique must be individualized for each patient, and gender, age, physical features, and expectations should be taken into consideration. The plastic facial surgeon who has diverse techniques in his operational resources can provide the best results depending on each patient. The technique to minimize incisions and reduce scarring has led to the development of advanced procedures.
