Endoscopic Face Lift
Dr. Fodor has pioneered a state-of-the art approach to facial rejuvenation. There is no visible scaring with an Endoscopic forehead lift, mid face lift, complete face lift or other types aesthetic plastic surgery. Endoscopic procedures are also less invasive than their traditional counterparts and as a result, there is also usually less postoperative swelling and bruising.
The technology applied in endoscopic procedures is similar to that used for years in other types of surgeries such as arthroscopic knee surgery. Tiny incisions are made in remote, hidden areas such as the hair-bearing scalp. A “scope” (a periscope-like tubular probe fitted with a tiny camera and bright light) is then inserted at the point of incision and used along with other instruments to assist in the operation. The surgeon can view the progress of the procedure on a T.V. monitor. While most patients can undergo endoscopic surgeries, not everyone is a good candidate.
