Forehead deep wrinkles make man's face ugly. Especially, in case that a young people has short forehead, one or two forehead deep wrinkles is likely to give a aggressive impression to people. Traditional forehead lift basically not only perform the selective excision of frontalis muscle which cause forehead wrinkles, but extend the width of forehead by practical lift through scalp excision. Recently, various filling materials such as collagen have been developing, and laser resurfacing and endoscopic plastic surgery has gradually been generalized, so the frequency of the traditional forehead lift which needs the extensive operation through coronal incision is gradually diminished. But collagen injection is repeatedly taken every regular times and it has a weak point that the width of forehead cannot be regulated. Laser resurfacing can't solve the problem of deep wrinkles. The purpose of endoscopic brow lift which has been generalized currently is mainly brow lift, and so this method is not good for deep wrinkles because it can't modualte frontalis muscle which cause forehead transverse wrinkles. Recently It has been reported that Alloderm○R composed of dermal collagen from cadavar skin is universally used in covering as well as filling up soft tissue defect and its usability is also successful. Authors recently correct three young persons who have forehead deep wrinkles by combination of endoscopic forehead lift and subcutaneous Alloderm○R implantation under the wrinkles for 2 years. At first, we extended the width of forehead and smoothed the depth of wrinkles by endoscopic brow lift. After having endoscopic operation, we inserted Alloderm○R in subcutaneous pocket and performed suspension suture outside. 
  The average increase of forehead width is 5 mm and all patients had corrected transverse wrinkles remarkably. During the 9 months, wrinkles didn't recur and implanted Alloderm○R also didn't absorbed. As a better method, authors reported that combining endoscopic brow lift with Alloderm○R implantation for the correction of short forehead and deep wrinkles could be used in place of traditional forehead lift.
