What is an Endoscopic Mid-Face Lift?
An endoscopic mid-face lift is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the middle third of the face, particularly the cheeks, nasolabial folds (smile lines), and under-eye area. This procedure restores volume and lift to sagging tissues, resulting in a youthful and refreshed appearance. By using an endoscope (a small camera) and specialised instruments, surgeons can achieve precise results with smaller incisions and faster recovery times compared to traditional methods.
Turkey is a sought-after destination for this procedure, offering world-class expertise, modern echnology, and cost-effective solutions.
Before the Procedure
• Initial Consultation: Your surgeon will assess your facial anatomy and discuss your
goals, ensuring the procedure is tailored to your needs.
• Medical Assessment: A thorough health evaluation and lab tests will confirm your
readiness for surgery.
• Planning the Surgery: A personalised surgical plan is created to address your concerns, with 3D imaging often used to visualise the results.
• Pre-Operative Instructions: Avoid smoking, alcohol, and certain medications (like
blood thinners) before the surgery.
The Procedure
The surgery is typically performed under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia with sedation and takes about 2–3 hours. Small incisions are made within the hairline or inside the mouth, minimising visible scarring. The surgeon uses an endoscope to visualise and lift the soft tissues of the mid-face, repositioning them to restore youthful contours. Excess fat or tissue may be removed or redistributed to enhance the results.

After the Procedure
• Immediate Recovery: Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are normal and begin to
subside within a few days.
• Post-Surgical Care: Follow your surgeon's instructions, including keeping your head
elevated and avoiding strenuous activities.
• Results Timeline: Initial improvements are noticeable within 2–3 weeks, with full results visible after a few months as swelling resolves.
Possible Complications (Minimised with Expert Care)
An endoscopic mid-face lift is a safe and effective procedure, but potential risks include:
• Temporary swelling, bruising, or numbness in the treated area.
• Mild tightness or discomfort, which resolves over time.
• Rare complications, such as infection or asymmetry, are carefully managed with proper follow-up care.
