Endoscopic facial aesthetic surgery is feasible, offering advantages over traditional methods. This technique allows for brow lifting and facial rejuvenation with minimal incisions.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques
  • Facial Anatomy

Background:

  • Traditional facial aesthetic surgeries often involve extensive incisions.
  • Endoscopic techniques offer potential for reduced invasiveness and improved aesthetic outcomes.
  • Previous studies have explored endoscopic applications in various surgical fields.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To demonstrate the feasibility of endoscopic techniques for facial aesthetic surgery.
  • To evaluate the clinical application of endoscopic brow lifting.
  • To compare endoscopic approaches with traditional methods.

Main Methods:

  • Laboratory investigations were conducted on fresh cadaver heads.
  • Endoscopic techniques were applied to the cheeks, forehead, orbit, nose, and nasal septum.

  • Clinical experience involved 32 patients undergoing endoscopic coronal brow lifting.

    • Main Results:

    • Endoscopic techniques proved feasible for multiple facial aesthetic procedures.
    • Coronal brow lifting in 32 patients demonstrated successful eyebrow elevation.
    • The endoscopic approach eliminated the need for large ear-to-ear coronal incisions.
    • Muscle division (corrugators, procerus, frontalis) and scalp dissection were key components.

    Conclusions:

    • Endoscopic facial aesthetic surgery is a viable alternative to traditional open techniques.
    • The endoscopic approach offers significant advantages, including reduced scarring.
    • Further clinical application of endoscopic techniques in facial aesthetics is warranted.
