ENDOSCOPIC FACELIFT
An endoscopic facelift is an advanced, minimally invasive facial rejuvenation procedure designed to restore youthful contours to the brow and midface while maintaining a natural-looking appearance. Using small, well-concealed incisions and specialized instrumentation, the procedure elevates the brow and midface by repositioning the underlying tissues rather than simply tightening the skin. The result is a smoother, more youthful appearance while preserving your natural facial expressions.

If you've been researching a "ponytail lift," you're not alone. Many patients use this term when searching for a minimally invasive facial rejuvenation procedure. In many cases, they are actually referring to an endoscopic facelift. While "Ponytail Lift" is a popular term used online, an endoscopic facelift is the established surgical technique designed to elevate the brow and midface through small, well-concealed incisions.
An endoscopic facelift is often an excellent option for patients with early to moderate signs of facial aging who want subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation. During your consultation, Dr. Henry Mentz will evaluate your facial anatomy, discuss your goals, and determine whether this procedure or another facial rejuvenation approach is the best fit for you.

– L. Makin
"Dr Mentz and his entire staff are wonderful. He takes time with you and your questions and/or concerns! Dr. Mentz apologized for a very short wait after my pre-op session. I replied with “it’s not as if it’s a doctor’s office” — meaning waits happen in good doctors offices because they care enough to take the time to care about the person/patient. You are not just a “case” with Dr. Mentz, you are HIS patient, so show him some patience! A doctor should never feel bad about a very short wait. I am looking forward to my after photos!"*

The best candidates are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are looking for natural-looking facial rejuvenation.
What Areas of the Face Can an Endoscopic Facelift Improve?
An endoscopic facelift primarily addresses the upper and midface, including the brow, forehead, temples, and cheeks. It can restore a more youthful facial contour by repositioning underlying tissues while preserving natural facial expression.

Yes. Depending on your goals, an endoscopic facelift may be combined with complementary facial procedures such as eyelid surgery, a neck lift, fat grafting, laser skin resurfacing, or injectable treatments to create more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Your surgeon will recommend a customized treatment plan during your consultation.
How Long Do the Results of an Endoscopic Facelift Last?
While the aging process continues, the improvements achieved with an endoscopic facelift are long-lasting. Results vary based on factors such as age, skin quality, genetics, and lifestyle.
