Is the percutaneous cheek lift a good method compared with endoscopic/subperiosteal methods?

I have always been bothered by my midface. Im 39 and had a smasectomy facelift, but my midface still bothers me. I have had a little cheek filler, but i was interested in a cheek lift as an isolated procedure. Is the percutaneous cheek lift a good method compared to endoscopic/ subperiosteal methods? Its mild cheek descent that I want to address.

You have some options. If you are trying to stay minimal, buccal fat removal with jawline lipo would improve some of the cheek fullness and jowling.
