Question:
I’ve heard of lots of different types of surgery that are performed endoscopically. Can this be done with the facelift to minimize the scarring?
Answer:
We utilize endoscopic procedures in facial plastic surgery for lifting the brow, but for the lower face we use an open technique. The incisions are placed in inconspicuous locations around the ear and hair which hide them very well. For rejuvenation of the cheek region we use fat transfer of fillers. This technique does not involve any incisions at all.
