What Makes an Endoscopic Midface Lift Different from a Traditional Facelift?

If you’re considering facial rejuvenation but want a less invasive option than a full facelift, an endoscopic midface lift may be ideal. At Enhance® Medical Center in Beverly Hills, CA, board-certified plastic surgeon Charles S. Lee, MD offers advanced techniques to help you restore youthful facial contours with precision and minimal downtime. Choosing the right provider is critical to achieving subtle, natural-looking results, and Enhance® Medical Center is known for surgical artistry and personalized care.

Targeted Rejuvenation of the Midface

Unlike a traditional facelift that focuses on lifting the lower face and neck, an endoscopic midface lift addresses the area around your cheeks, lower eyelids, and nasolabial folds. This procedure is specifically designed to reposition sagging cheek fat pads and restore volume where it’s lost due to aging or genetics.

By targeting the midface area, you can achieve a refreshed appearance without undergoing a full facelift. This makes it ideal if you’ve started to notice early signs of aging but don’t yet need more extensive correction.

Minimally Invasive with Shorter Recovery

One of the most significant differences lies in the technique. An endoscopic midface lift uses small incisions and a slender camera (endoscope) to guide the procedure. This approach minimizes tissue disruption, reduces visible scarring, and typically results in a faster and more comfortable recovery.

You’re likely to experience less swelling, bruising, and downtime compared to a traditional facelift. Most patients return to social activities sooner, making this option appealing if you’re seeking effective results with minimal interruption to your lifestyle.

Natural-Looking Results Without Over-Correction

With an endoscopic midface lift, the focus is on lifting the tissues vertically, which mirrors the natural aging process more closely. Traditional facelifts tend to pull the skin more horizontally and extensively, which can sometimes result in an overly tight or unnatural look if not executed carefully.

By elevating and repositioning the soft tissues of your midface, you can enjoy smoother under-eye areas, fuller cheeks, and a more youthful contour—all without appearing “overdone.”
