Just as the tissue in the lower face may sag creating a jowl (or what is commonly called a chicken neck), the upper face and eyebrows can droop, which weighs down the eyelid or forces tissue out over the eyelids, creating a hooding effect. The traditional method of correction of this condition involves a direct incision above the eyebrows or along the hairline leaving unsightly scars, excessive bleeding, forehead numbness and or hair loss. Fortunately, Dr. Longo employs the use of the C02 Laser in fusion with the amazing fiber optic miniature digital Camera the endoscope.

The endoscope is used to gain greater visibility during the procedure. This allows for maximum flexibility and versatility during surgery. The results are an optimized efficient safer surgery using smaller more precise incisions, unveiling a more aesthetically pleasing result, and a quicker recovery. These incisions are well hidden within the hairline. The muscles along and underneath the eyebrow are released allowing the main elevating muscle, the frontalis, to elevate the eyebrows in an unopposed position, much higher than before. After a brief recovery period, the upper facial area will naturally be tightened and raised to a more youthful sculpted position.
