BROW LIFTRisks of Brow LiftComplications of brow lift are and include bleeding, infection, loss of sensation, and muscle weakness with the inability to elevate the forehead, temporary or even permanent hair loss, asymmetry, and recurrence of sagging brows. The longevity of the endo-brow lift has specifically not been established. The Pre-Operative Visit An appointment will be made to meet with Dr. Parson approximately 2 weeks prior to your operation. At that time you will need to discontinue medications which can lead to surgical complications, such as bleeding. Any remaining questions regarding the operation will be answered. The consent for Dr. Parson to perform the brow lift will be reviewed and signed. Photographs will be taken. You will be asked to sign a photographic consent prior to having any photographs taken. A general physical examination will be done to ensure that no ongoing medical problems are present which might interfere with the success of the operation. Specific instructions regarding the date and time of your procedure will be given to you in writing. You will need to arrange for an escort to drive you to and from the surgery center on the day of the operation and for the first post-operative visit. You should wear loose fitting clothing that will wash easily in the event they are soiled. Do not wear jewelry, contact lenses, or bring valuables to the operating room. Remove all body jewelry from pierced body parts; this can interfere with the procedure and may represent a safety threat to you because of the use of electrocautery during the procedure. DO NOT SHAVE your scalp prior to surgery; this may increase your risk of infection. Appropriate shaving will be done on the morning of your procedure. Perms and bleaching should be avoided for 2 weeks prior to and 2 weeks after your brow lift. The balance of your surgical fee is due at this pre-operative visit. Finally, Dr. Parson will write prescriptions for preventative antibiotics to decrease your risk of infection and a narcotic analgesic for post-operative pain relief. YOU NEED TO INFORM US OF ANY HISTORY OF ALLERGIC REACTIONS TO MEDICATIONS. The antibiotics should be started the day before surgery.
