A new endoscopic midface lift technique effectively corrects aging signs like sagging cheeks and deep folds, offering a youthful appearance. This minimally invasive approach enhances facial rejuvenation and can be combined with other cosmetic procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Facial Rejuvenation Surgery

Background:

  • Midface aging presents as malar ptosis, infraorbital hollowing, and deepened folds, often unaddressed by standard rhytidectomy (SMAS face lift).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate an endoscopic technique specifically designed for midface rejuvenation.
  • To address limitations of standard facelifts in correcting midface aging.

Main Methods:

  • An endoscopic approach was utilized for subperiosteal elevation and release of midface tissues.
  • Tissues were suspended to a higher position in the malar area following endoscopic temporal dissection.

Main Results:

  • The technique successfully softened nasolabial folds, reduced jowls, and restored youthful fullness to the malar and infraorbital regions.

  • Over 200 procedures were performed with positive early follow-up results.
  • Conclusions:

    • Endoscopic midface lifting is an effective technique for addressing specific midface aging concerns.
    • This procedure can be integrated with other facial surgeries for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
