Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Facial Rejuvenation Techniques

Background:

  • Endoscopic techniques are increasingly utilized for facial rejuvenation.
  • Midface widening is a potential concern with some rejuvenation procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of a personal endoscopic technique for upper and midface rejuvenation.
  • To assess patient satisfaction and complication rates associated with the described endoscopic approach.

Main Methods:

  • A cohort of 72 patients underwent endoscopic upper and midface rejuvenation using a personal technique.
  • The technique involved biplanar endoscopic dissection (subgaleal and subcutaneous) and excision of a galeal strip for stable forehead lift.
  • A lower blepharoplasty incision was used for midface lifting and malar fat pad fixation to prevent midface widening.

  • 5 patients experienced an improved appearance of the mid and upper face.
  • Complications included temporary numbness (11), temporary lower lid retraction (3), and eyebrow asymmetry requiring revision (5).

Conclusions:

  • The described personal endoscopic technique is effective for upper and midface rejuvenation, achieving high patient satisfaction.
  • The method successfully addresses concerns regarding midface widening.
  • While complications are generally temporary or correctable, careful surgical planning is essential.
