Fewer Scars Thanks To Endoscopic Face Lift Surgery

Traditionally face lift surgery involves some degree of scarring due to the incisions involved. With the endoscopic approach to this cosmetic procedure however, the chances of scarring are reduced considerably.

The endoscopic technique is better suited for those individuals who have less facial tissue. Cosmetic surgeons can work on those parts of the face that require closer attention paid to facial improvement on a smaller scale.

This cosmetic facelift surgery technique utilizes a device called an endoscope which is inserted into the incision to scan the area of surgery. One endoscopic method lifts the facial skin at the hairline level and is referred by plastic surgeons as the superficial facelift.

The other method is the deep lift method where the facial skin is lifted completely and re-imposed on the underlying facial bone. This method allows a tighter placement of the facial skin and takes care of wrinkles in one go.

The endoscope used for this face surgery procedure is minuscule and the incisions are spaced wide enough to insert the probe and the surgical instruments. Due to this the scarring is kept to a minimum.

The results of an endoscopic face lift surgery technique are distinctive and take care of a lot of the annoying signs of aging like wrinkles, sagging tissues and bulging fat deposits.

If you think this procedure could work for you, you can get in touch with the Plastic Surgery Institute of California for further advice.
