New breakthrough technology in rejuvenating the upper Eye area with the ENDOTINE TransBleph

Traditional browlift surgeries consist of incisions across the head along the hairline and possible longer incisions at each temple. Muscles are repositioned and excess skin is trimmed away. Multiple sutures, scarring, time off work, a painful, lengthy recovery time and possible hair loss are all typical outcomes with the traditional browlift method.

With nearly 400,000 face lifts performed worldwide each year, often in conjunction with a browlift as well as 350,000 upper eyelid procedures performed annually, which are ideally performed with a browlift to yield longer lasting results, you can see why there is a need for a browlift technique that is less-invasive, has a quicker recovery time and offers optimal results.

The ENDOTINE TransBleph is a revolutionary new procedure that allows you to have a browlift through a single upper lid incision. So, if you are having an upper eyelid (blepharoplasty) procedure as well as a browlift - you can now have both procedures all through the same single incision.

Using a patented, multipoint soft tissue fixation technology-via a small, three tined bioabsorbable implant-you now have the opportunity to regain a youthful, beautiful appearance around the eyes, without undergoing a complete forehead lift.

Simple and Quick

This is a dynamic new combination in eye rejuvenation that is simple, quick and direct. The entire procedure is performed under local anesthesia and can be completed in just minutes per side.

Dr. Schafer also specializes in additional procedures including less-invasive forehead lifts and mid-face lifts using the ENDOTINE technology.
