The course of the procedure
The procedure is usually performed under general or local anesthesia and lasts approximately 1–2 hours.
The surgeon makes discreet incisions in the hairline on the forehead or temples, then lifts and tightens the layers of tissue.
The stitches are placed in such a way as to minimize the visibility of scars.
Pacjent zwykle wraca do domu tego samego dnia lub zostaje na krótką obserwację w klinice.
Recovery and post-treatment recommendations:
Swelling and bruising usually subside within 2–3 weeks.
A feeling of tension or numbness in the forehead area may persist for several weeks.
The stitches are removed after 7–10 days.
Avoid physical exertion and bending your head for at least 2 weeks.
Protect scars from the sun for at least 6 months
Recommended follow-up visits: after 1, 3, and 6 months
Possible complications and risks:
Hematoma or bleeding requiring drainage
Infection requiring antibiotic therapy
Transient or rarely persistent sensory disturbances in the face or auricle
