Endoscopic Lifts

Endoscopic Lifts

An endoscope is a thin, flexible tube equipped with a light and camera at its tip. This instrument allows for a clearer view of the targeted area without the need for large incisions. Endoscopic lifting procedures aim to rejuvenate specific areas, such as the eyes, brows, and face, using the endoscope in a less invasive manner.

About Endoscopic Lifts

  • Endoscopic Eyebrow Lift

    Endoscopic Brow Lift is a surgical procedure designed to lift and rejuvenate the forehead and brow area with the help of an endoscope.  With this technique, eyebrows that have drooped down as a result of gravity and wrinkles on the forehead can be improved.  The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia.  The endoscopic approach allows a better view of the underlying facial nerves, reducing the risk of nerve damage during the procedure.  Since it is less invasive than traditional brow lift approaches, the recovery time is also relatively shorter.  

    How the Procedure Works

    After general anesthesia is administered, your surgeon makes a small incision about 1 inch in size through the hairline.  With the help of these incisions, the endoscope visualizes the underlying tissues and structures in the area to be treated.  The surgeon lifts and repositions the underlying tissues, including muscles and fatty tissue, according to the individual needs of the case.  This naturally lifts the brow and smooths forehead wrinkles.  After the procedure is completed, the incisions in the scalp are closed with absorbable sutures.  

    Incision and Scar

    In an endoscopic brow lift, the incisions are positioned at the hairline to reduce scar visibility.  The number of incisions is between two and five, depending on the case, and these incisions are usually less than one inch in length.  Incision recovery varies according to your daily routines and anatomy, but generally, the nature of the endoscopic surgery offers a fast recovery environment.  The scars are inconspicuous as they are strategically placed on the scalp well away from the hairline.  

  • Endoscopic Mid-Face Lift

    Endoscopic mid-facelift is a surgical procedure that provides facial rejuvenation with the aim of lifting sagging tissues on the face with the help of an endoscope, enhancing the cheek contour and reducing nasolabial folds.  This technique is a less invasive procedure compared to traditional facelift operations and therefore provides a shorter recovery time.  

    How the Procedure Works

    Individuals are prepared for general anesthesia before the procedure begins.  Incisions small enough for the endoscope to advance are positioned in the hairline and/or behind the ears.  With the visual map provided by the endoscope, the surgeon gently lifts and repositions the sagging muscles, fat pads and tissues in the facial area.  The goal is to achieve a more youthful and natural contour to the cheeks and to eliminate hollowing or sagging.  Once the planned appearance is achieved, the incisions are closed with absorbable sutures.  

    Incision and Scar

    In an endoscopic brow lift, the incisions are typically positioned at the hairline and/or behind the ear to reduce their visibility.   Depending on the case, the number of incisions is between two and five, and these incisions are usually less than one inch in length. Incision recovery varies according to your daily routines and anatomy, but the nature of endoscopic surgery usually offers a fast recovery environment.   The scars are inconspicuous as they are strategically hidden by the surgeon behind the hairline in the scalp and behind the ear.  

  • Endoscopic Neck Lift

    Endoscopic Neck Lift is a rejuvenation method performed with an endoscope that provides a younger and more dynamic neck appearance.  Compared to traditional neck lift surgery, it is less invasive as smaller incisions are used and the recovery time is shorter.  With this approach, excess fat and skin in the neck are eliminated and muscle laxity can be improved.  

    How the Procedure Works

    The procedure is performed under general anesthesia for patient comfort.  Your surgeon makes small incisions under the chin and behind the ear, small enough for the endoscope to advance.  These incisions are usually smaller than one inch.  With the help of the endoscope, excess fat and muscle laxity under the skin are visualized and the surgeon lifts and repositions the neck muscles.  In some cases, the surgeon may perform platysmaplasty, a procedure to tighten the underlying neck muscles (platysma muscles).  This can help remove vertical bands or the appearance of a "turkey neck".  Once a more youthful and contoured neck appearance is achieved, the incisions are closed with absorbable sutures.  

  • Endoscopic Lower Face Lift

    Endoscopic Lower Face Lift is a surgical procedure that rejuvenates the lower face by eliminating sagging tissue and excess fat in the jawline and jowl areas.  In this approach, the jawline appearance is defined and a more contoured facial projection is achieved.  

    How the Procedure Works

    The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia.  The surgeon prepares a pathway for the endoscope by making incisions of less than an inch around the hairline and ear.  With the help of the endoscope, the facial muscles and tissues in the lower face are lifted and repositioned.  Depending on the needs of the case, fat can be repositioned or removed to achieve a more balanced and natural appearance.  In this way, the "double chin" appearance of the jowl is improved.  Once the intended appearance is achieved, the incisions are closed with absorbable sutures.  

    Incision and Scars

    In an endoscopic lower facelift, the incisions are typically positioned at the hairline and around the ear to reduce visibility.  Depending on the type of case, the number of incisions is between two and four, and these incisions are usually less than one inch in length. Incision recovery varies according to your daily routines and anatomy, but generally offers a fast recovery environment due to the nature of endoscopic surgeries.  The scars are inconspicuous as they are strategically hidden by the surgeon behind the hairline in the scalp and in the folds around the ear.
