Face
On days when you are feeling well-rested and content, does your facial expression tell a different story? Often, the forehead is the main culprit. A lined or furrowed brow can make a serene face appear upset or concerned. Frown lines between the eyebrows can produce an angry look.
The technique chosen for your surgery depends on your features, Dr. Wigoda’s preferences, and your desired results. One common method is the coronal incision technique. Using this technique, an incision is made across the top of the scalp, beginning above the ears and concealed within the hair. Sometimes the incision may be placed at the front of the hairline. The incision is designed to be inconspicuous when healed.
