    Summary

    Video-endoscopic facelift surgery elevates facial structures and muscles to improve contour and minimize wrinkles, offering an alternative to traditional rhytidoplasty. This minimally invasive technique enhances outcomes for various facial aging concerns.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Minimally Invasive Procedures

    Background:

    • Traditional rhytidoplasty (facelift) primarily involves skin resection.
    • There is a need for techniques that address deeper facial structures for more comprehensive rejuvenation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report on the experience with 22 cases of video-endoscopic facelift.
    • To highlight the advantages of endoscopic facelift over traditional rhytidoplasty.

    Main Methods:

    • Subperiosteal elevation in the frontal region for brow lifting and wrinkle reduction.
    • Subcutaneous dissection of the mid-face, addressing the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System).
    • Endoscopic treatment of the cervical region, including platysma plication and liposculpture for neck rejuvenation.

    Main Results:

    • Successful elevation of facial structures, improved facial contour, and minimized wrinkles.
    • Effective treatment of the nasolabial fold and jowls through SMAS plication.
    • Management of excess cervical fat and skin laxity, enabling treatment of older patients.

    Conclusions:

    • Video-endoscopic facelift offers a superior approach by elevating structures rather than solely resecting skin.
    • The technique effectively addresses multiple facial aging components, from the forehead to the neck.
    • Video endoscopy is poised to significantly impact the future of plastic surgery.
