Endoscopic Lift

Endoscopic lifts can be used on various areas of the face. It is a minimally invasive procedure that involves four to six short (one inch or less) incisions. Through these small incisions, your plastic surgeon inserts an endoscope which has a tiny camera on the end which monitors the activity of the long, narrow surgical instruments inserted through the other incisions. Through this technique, your plastic surgeon will be able to do many of the procedures that have traditionally been performed with longer incisions.

Some of the advantages of endoscopic lifts are less scarring, less trauma to the face and body, and less chance of infection. The recovery time for endoscopic lifts is generally shorter than for traditional procedures.
