In today’s modern times, facelifts are definitely becoming a trend to achieve a younger, fresher, and a more rejuvenated appearance. However, people tend to get scared of some issues that having a facelift entails: scarring, surgical risks, complications, costs, etc. so, what does one do when confronted with these factors? One, you can totally disregard the idea of having a facelift and forever endure your aging looks; or two, you can explore options other than a facelift to revitalize your looks.

Endoscopic Facelift Surgery: what is it, how is it done, is it for me? Read on to know more about it.

An endoscopic facelift is an inexpensive, less invasive, and a more convenient alternative to conventional and specific types of facelift. Some people do not need to have a full facelift procedure to correct some early signs of aging. All they need is an endoscopic facelift to improve the appearance of an aging skin but without the hassles of a full facelift surgery. Endoscopic facelift is also called as a scar- less facelift since the cuts made are not long and are intricately placed on areas where scarring is not visible or detectable to an untrained eye.

How is it done?

The surgeon uses an endoscope, a wand-like device that has a camera on it, to explore the tissues beneath the skin surface through very small incisions. This visualization of the underlying muscles and fats enables the surgeon to remove the excess fatty tissues and reshape the muscles to make it more tight and smooth. Sutures will close the minute wounds and since they are relatively small and short, they tend to blend with the hairline, or with the natural folds on the skin for a scar- less looking skin surface.

Is it for me?

People on their 30’s, 40’s and mid 50’s can benefit from this procedure since they do not have extensive sagging on their face due to excess fat and loose skin. The skin is somewhat still supple on these ages and an endoscopy procedure could greatly enhance the skin but without worries on having to manipulate a great amount of sagging skin.
Is it not a risky procedure?

An endoscopic facelift is probably the safest among all types of surgeries that corrects flaws caused by aging. It requires smaller incisions thus lesser damage is done to the skin and risk for bleeding, swelling and bruising is also kept to a minimum. Considering these factors, recovery period is shorter and you can also forget worrying about scar formation post- surgery since this scar- less procedure delivers very satisfactory results.

Aside from the fact that an endoscopy facelift is a much simpler form of conventional and modern facelifts, you only get to pay a fraction of what you have to pay for more complex types of face lifts.

This procedure involves less time, money, and stress plus complications after the surgery is virtually impossible. So you think only a traditional facelift could combat the signs of aging? Think again! Ask your doctor about an endoscopic facelift procedure to have an in depth knowledge of this type of surgery.
