Instead of opting for the conventional procedures of facelift, now you can look out for new age methods that are safe and produce good results.
Chances are,
if you’re looking into the possibility of getting a facelift, that you’d like the most advanced and professional procedure available. Perhaps you’re looking for an operation that didn’t result in any scars, without the risk of obtaining that old unnatural, pulled-back look we’ve come to associate with the treatment. Well, thankfully, this dream has become a very available reality. In this article, we tell you about the subperiosteal endoscopic facelift. Here’s how this revolutionary treatment really works:
As the main signs of aging generally occur in the mid-section of the face, the procedure bases it’s focus here. Non-visible incisions, spanning less than an inch, are made around the face and mouth. Specially designed instruments are used to gently elevate the tissues of the brows, cheeks, forehead, and temple area. An endoscope, or a glass rod that conducts light, is connected to a digital chip camera, which provides high magnified visibility to the surgeon.
As tissue are set free, sutures are placed on the cheek’s underside, passed through to the temple area, and secured to the connective tissues that lie over the muscles in the temple area. Through the technique of placing sutures in the appropriate place, the cheeks are then folded. The entire process elevates each cheek in both outward fullness, and vertical dimension.
Due to the fact that the earliest aging signs include sagging in the brow, lower lid, and cheek areas, this procedure helps to correct these issues long before a traditional facelift is ever required. In fact, only when large excess’ of skin in the neck and jowl area occur is it ever necessary to make an incision in front of the ears. Many patients are finding that even in their fifties, they are able to have this treatment serve as the main procedure in the quest for a more youthful appearance.
In addition, if the complete rejuvenation program is followed by adherence to sun protection and a regimen of alpha-hydroxy and retin-a acids and anti-oxidants, individuals are able to look younger longer. And when combined with today’s laser technologies, the entire process is a win!
