    A new mini-invasive facelift technique offers results comparable to endoscopic facelifts with less swelling and shorter surgery times. This approach also avoids preauricular scars in most patients, enhancing cosmetic surgery outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Aesthetic Surgery
    • Minimally Invasive Procedures

    Background:

    • Endoscopic techniques have advanced aesthetic surgery through minimal incisions.
    • Subperiosteal lifting, derived from craniofacial surgery, forms the basis for these procedures.
    • Challenges with endoscopic instrumentation and technique have prompted alternative approaches.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate a non-endoscopic, mini-invasive subperiosteal facelift technique.
    • To compare its efficacy and patient outcomes against endoscopic rhytidectomy.
    • To assess the feasibility of avoiding preauricular scars with this modified approach.

    Main Methods:

    • A cohort of 63 patients underwent a mini-invasive subperiosteal facelift.
    • The procedure was performed without endoscopic assistance.

  • Outcomes were assessed over a follow-up period of up to 4 years.

    • Main Results:

    • The mini-invasive facelift yielded results equivalent to endoscopic rhytidectomies in selected patients.
    • This approach demonstrated reduced morbidity, edema, and operative time.
    • Preauricular scar avoidance was achieved in 84% of the cases.

    Conclusions:

    • A non-endoscopic, mini-invasive subperiosteal facelift is a viable alternative to endoscopic techniques.
    • It offers comparable aesthetic results with improved patient recovery and reduced scarring.
    • This technique is suitable for appropriate patients seeking facial rejuvenation.
