For
some teenagers who are scared of local anesthetic injection, we may
use sticker applied on the upper eyelid instead. This alternative
does not work for middle-age and older people. However, if compare
the cost of sticker with surgery, surgery may be a better choice.

Browlift
or Forehead Lift
Have you ever
waken up in the morning, look in the mirror and ask yourself where
that oldie come from
As we age, it is the fact that we acquire wrinkles which is unavoidable.
There are lots of commercials and advertisements about anti-aging
products.
Plastic surgery has developed to help solving your problem by reducing
wrinkling in the "crow's feet" region. Here is information about the
procedure for you to make better decision
The surgeon will evaluate how loose your skin and its underlying tissues
are. Local anesthesia will be applied around your temple and hairline
regions. The surgeon makes small incision about 3 - 4 cm. long then
retracts and advances the skin and its underlying tissues to affect
a smoother and more defined contour. The excess skin is excised and
discarded as the incisions are closed with sutures. The procedure
normally takes less than an hour and you can return home right after
the surgery with slightly swelling wound. The swelling will get back
to normal within 1 - 2 weeks. In case that you are scared of surgery,
sedation may be used and you should stay overnight in the hospital
in this case.
