A minimally invasive neck lift,with or without an endoscope, can definitely help improve a double chin - good luck!

Endoscopic neck lift if done are a very new approach and I would wait 4-5 years to assess its utility
I have not heard of a neck lift done in an endoscopic fashion. I would imagine that it could be done however. But that would be very difficult and dangerous in my opinion. This is especially the case if bleeding were to occur. You could benefit from just a traditional neck lift. Below is an example of a video that helps to answer this question for you to watch and a link to see more informative videos:

These types, of procedures, do not lend themselves to any skin removal and as such have marginal value for Face Lift and or Neck Lifts, IMHO.

In my practice in New York, I routinely combine, liposculpure, platysma muscle repair/tightening and excision of redundant skin from an approach behind the ears and under the chin around the natural chin crease. As far as your question is concerned, I wouldn't assume that any additional neck lift procedure should be necessary for helping with a...
