Endoscopic midface lifts aren’t AS good as facelifts but they still don’t leave a scar.
Answer: Endo mid face lift Since we have so many great fillers available now, endoscopic mid face lifts have largely gone away. If you really need it, you should consider having a proper lift done. If you are thinking about minor changes, you should not submit to any surgery, but rather consider non-surgical treatments. Without an exam, it will not be possible to fully evaluate you and give you recommendations. Be sure to discuss your goals and concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon and consider the pros and the cons. Be certain your surgeon is properly certified.

Answer: MACS Mini-Facelift Better Option Endoscopic Mid-Facelifts have fallen out of favor for many reasons, but mostly because Mini-Facelifts have evolved and have proven to be a better option. My favorite technique is the MACS short scar Mini-Facelift. Developed in Europe, it is the ideal approach for the younger patient, not ready for a full facelift, or patients who desire a less invasive procedure with a shorter recovery time. I would also consider fat grafting to your mid and lower face to re-define your jaw line and fill out those areas that have lost volume over time.

Answer: Facial evaluation Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. There are many options for midface rejuvenation. The best option for you will depend on your individual facial anatomy. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Mid face lift options Best to see an experienced plastic surgeon who can explain the options and recovery times.In special cases an endoscopic face lift maybe the best option. Albeit limited results are expected for a limited time, with potential for orientalizing the eyes. Approach this option with care. Good luck...

Answer: Endoscopic midface lifts aren’t AS good as facelifts, if you need very little correction of midface why not opt for one? No they are not, in my experience I decided not perform any more Endoscopic Facelift ( I began in 1997 with this procedure), because they do not allow me to properly dissect,elevate, trimm and re-suture the structures I need to work on to get good and lasting results as the traditional techniques do. Scars will be hidden and conceal into the hair line, behind the ears, and only a tiny incision will pass in front of the ear. I prefer my patients to get satisfactory results than mediocre ones, I would'nt be happy with my work either.Member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)Member of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS)Certified Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
