What is Endoscopic Facelift?

Endoscopic facial surgery is the process of lifting the upper and middle face with the help of small incisions made from the scalp and using an endoscope. If necessary, an additional incision can be made inside the mouth. The forehead, eye contour and cheekbones are peeled from under the bone membrane and lifted upwards. The procedures performed are displayed with the help of a camera and the surgeon can see all anatomical structures under magnification. The biggest advantage of this method, there is no cut from the outside and the results are long-lasting.

The endoscopic facelift  is a minimally invasive cosmetic surgical procedure that aims to lift and rejuvenate the mid-face and lower face by using an endoscope, which is a small, thin tube with a light and a camera attached to it. This technique allows the surgeon to visualize and manipulate the underlying facial structures through small incisions, resulting in less scarring, reduced recovery time, and fewer complications compared to traditional facelift procedures.

During an endoscopic facelift, the surgeon makes several small incisions, usually hidden in the hairline or inside the mouth, and inserts the endoscope to visualize the underlying facial tissues, including the muscles, fat pads, and connective tissue. The surgeon then uses specialized instruments to lift and reposition the sagging facial structures, tightening the skin and underlying tissues to achieve a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. The procedure can address concerns such as jowls, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and sagging cheeks.

Endoscopic facelifts are often performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on the patient's preference and the extent of the procedure. The recovery period is typically shorter than traditional facelift surgery, with less bruising and swelling. However, as with any surgical procedure, there are risks and potential complications associated with endoscopic facelifts, such as infection, scarring, nerve injury, and asymmetry, which should be discussed thoroughly with the surgeon prior to undergoing the procedure.

What is Plastic Surgery?

Plastic surgery covers the reconstruction and reshaping of various structures on the body, the elimination of serious tissue losses and all kinds of aesthetic procedures. Cosmetic and aesthetic surgery are the most well-known parts of plastic surgery. In plastic surgery, there is a common misunderstanding that the word plastic means artificial. Rather the word comes from the ancient Greek word “plastikos” means molding or forming. Reconstructive plastic surgery is a treatment used to heal dysfunctional body parts. It is used primarily to restore function, although it can also change the individual's appearance. Cosmetic plastic surgery procedures, techniques and principles are entirely focused on improving the patient's appearance. Improving aesthetic appeal, symmetry and proportion are key goals.
