The New Endoscopic Facelift Technique

This Beauty Article is Brought To You By - Aazdak Alissimmo

When you picture plastic surgery, do you think about all the images from television shows? The bloody cut open bodies, the faces with bandages? Well, the newest technologies that surgeons are working on hope to eliminate some of that blood and guts imagery with fewer cuts and less blood loss.

One surgery that really stands out among the gory surgeries shown on the makeover shows is the facelift. Long cuts are required so that the doctors can actually pull the skin down off of the patient's face, in order to work with the tissues underneath to make the face look smooth.

There are other ways to perform a facelift - and other facelift surgeries that are performed. Some surgeons work on a patient in steps, with small cuts that allow the surgeon access in little parts. Other facelifts are "mini" facelifts, working on just one part of the face, such as the lower area of the face.

All of these facelifts, however, do require extensive cutting and removal of tissues, as well as large scale manipulation of tissue and possibly loss of blood. While this in itself is not necessarily dangerous or bad, there are other ways to perform facelifts that are being developed.

One way that is being developed to perform both mini and full facelifts is the endoscopic facelift. Similar to traditional facelifts in that the goal is to make the skin smooth, the endoscopic facelift is different because it uses small cuts in the skin in which instruments are placed under the skin.

These instruments, along with a camera so that the doctor can see what he or she is doing, perform the work that would normally be done during a facelift. They manipulate and cut the underlying tissues, suturing them in place. Less blood can be lost, and less scarring takes place due to smaller cuts.

Unfortunately, this is less than a perfect technique right now. Not everyone can get an endoscopic facelift, and not every surgeon is a trained endoscopic surgeon - meaning that he may or may not be able to perform your facelift endoscopically. You may have to search for a doctor who can do so.

Not all endoscopic facelifts turn out perfectly either - there is a chance, as there is in any endoscopic procedure, that your doctor may have to convert to the traditional form of the facelift in the middle of the surgery. This is because doctors can't always predict what will happen before the surgery.

While not yet a perfect or fully utilized way to get a facelift, the endoscopic facelift is still a promising new technique. If you were told that you couldn't get a facelift due to scarring issues, or a bleeding issue, this technique may make it so that you will be able to get that facelift after all.
