Endoscopic plastic surgery offers minimally invasive "buttonhole surgery" for head and neck procedures, resulting in smaller scars and less morbidity. This technique requires specialized training but yields results comparable to traditional methods.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Endoscopic Techniques

Context:

  • Aesthetic plastic surgery of the head and neck region is evolving with new techniques.
  • Endoscopic procedures, termed "buttonhole surgery," are gaining traction due to patient and surgeon preference for minimal scarring and reduced morbidity.
  • The adoption of video-assisted surgery necessitates specific training and laboratory practice.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the application and outcomes of endoscopic techniques in aesthetic plastic surgery of the head and neck.
  • To compare endoscopic procedures with conventional facelifting techniques regarding results and complication rates.
  • To establish the indications and limitations of endoscopic approaches in different facial regions.

Summary:

  • Endoscopic procedures are increasingly utilized in aesthetic head and neck surgery, offering benefits like tiny scars and reduced morbidity.

  • Established indications exist for endoscopic forehead lifting, while neck lifting has a relative indication. Endoscopic subperiosteal composite dissection in the midface is facilitated safely.
  • Results and complication rates are comparable to conventional facelifting. Endoscopic forehead lifting eliminates the need for large scalp incisions, particularly suitable for younger patients with elastic skin.

    • Impact:

    • Endoscopic surgery provides a less invasive alternative for facial rejuvenation procedures.
    • The technique reduces patient recovery time and visible scarring compared to traditional methods.
    • Further research is needed to ascertain long-term results and refine indications for broader application.
