Forehead
The forehead and wrinkles which are present may reveal a lot about the person, including age and also some personal habits. The effects of gravity and lack of care can gradually cause the shift of the skin with the eyebrows to shift down. Furthermore, in connection with an excess of upper eye lid skin and small wrinkles, the forehead looks more distorted with deep wrinkles and the whole facial expression finally changes.
In Asklepion we can help this aging process by different methods.
The wrinkles can be successfully eliminated by botulinum toxin (Dysport, Botox) or with the help of different filling materials – hyaluronic acid (Restylane, Juvederm), collagen (Zyderm, Zyplast, Artecoll) and others. Some of these have permanent effects, others only temporary.
Preventive methods are regenerative and rejuvenating cosmetic procedures as well as using the right cosmetic products. In Asklepion we offer many such therapies including cosmetics Orlane and Decleor and special instruments, such as Belex.
Chemical peeling is sought by women with already obvious signs of complexion aging.
In Asklepion the regeneration lasers Smoothbeam and GentleYAG are considered to be the most favourite methods for the rejuvenation of any complexion. The lasers are known as a “fountain of youth” because of the excellent results achieved by this treatment. They substitute the old collagen, which acts to support the skin, by new collagen.
The loose skin of the forehead and eyebrows with small wrinkles can be easily reversed by the endoscopic procedure of browlifting. The specialist needs to use only three injections in the hair line (approx.1cm), to elevate the forehead and secure it with the help of specific fixations. There are hardly any postoperative scars, the wounds do not bleed and they heal very quickly.
The especially effective and popular procedure is called the featherlift. The specialist fixes the skin by special threads only in a few desensitised areas which are introduced under the surface. The immediate effect for the client lasts for two years with minimal complications.
If the lax of the face and the excess of skin on the forehead are really marked, we suggest a classic facelift. The surgeon removes skin in the hairy part of head; the skin from the forehead is stretched and secured in that place. The operation is done under general anaesthesia. The patient has to stay in hospital one or two days and needs about two weeks of convalescence.
Asklepion is also well known for its expertise in removing skin outgrowths, freckles, warts and scars which are quite common on the forehead and can be treated by different laser procedures.
