Endoscopic Facelift Face Neck Rejuvenation

Sigmund L. Sattenspiel, MD answers: What would an endoscopic mid-face lift correct?

I understand that they place some of the incisions inside the mouth and above the ear. Will this endoscopic mid-face lift help jowls?

Question: What would an endoscopic mid-face lift correct?

Answer: An endoscopic mid-face lift is employed to elevate the malar (cheekbone region) and sub-malar (mid-face sagging depression) regions. In selected cases, this procedure is useful. More often, however, the lower facial jowl sagging and the neck soft tissue sagging is of greater importance in corrective face/neck rejuvenation procedures. The endoscopic mid-face lift may be a useful adjunct. However, well-performed face/neck lift may obviate the need for a mid-face endoscopic procedure.
