Endoscopic Plastic Surgery

Endoscopy is a surgical technique that involves the use of an endoscope, a special viewing instrument that allows a surgeon to see images of the body's internal structures through very small incisions. Endoscopic surgery has been used for decades in a number of different procedures, including gallbladder removal, tubal ligation, and knee surgery. Endoscopy is being used on a limited basis for both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures.

The primary procedures performed with this technology are brow and upper face lifts. The major advantage is the use of very small incisions toaccomplish the task.
