What are some midface lift alternatives?

A lot of men are concerned with the scars of a Facelift- I do not think that is an unreasonable concern.  I do think a safe, mid face lift could help your situation but would need to see your entire face and hairline.   Good luck!

You have very valid concerns. I would want to know what the previous surgery was that resulted in skin sagging in the midface. Was there soft tissue removed? Also, have you had significant weight fluctuation in the last 5 years with recent weight loss? If you are concerned about scarring from a face lift, which I don't believe would address your problem adequately anyway, then you may want to consider medial submalar cheek implants which will replace volume and lift the tissue without any facial incisions. Generally the face lift incision in a man is not hidden inside the ear as such a design will bring hair-bearing skin into the ear and it is difficult to manage even with LHR. Also, most men wear their hair short, and the incisions have a tendency to be more conspicuous. The blepharoplasty incisions can be well camouflaged but can cause ectropion or tension on the lower lid from the suspended cheek tissue and cause rounding of the eye. The endoscopic approach is technically difficult and in your case may yield only limited results given heavy midface soft tissue. You can also discuss autologous fat transfer as an option with your surgeon.

A facelift does not leave obvious scars that have to be camouflaged!  When done properly the scars are not noticeable.

Look at before & after pictures with your surgeon.  It may not be the procedure you choose, but the scars should not be the reason.
