  • Title: Excision of forehead and malar lesions using endoscopic techniques.
    Author: Butts SC, Setlur J.
    Journal: J Craniofac Surg; 2012 Jul; 23(4):1146-8. PubMed ID: 22777436.
    Abstract:
    The use of endoscopes via limited incisions to access areas of the forehead and cheek has allowed facial rejuvenation procedures to be performed in a way that minimizes some of the morbidities associated with more traditional approaches. The possibility of expanding the indications for these approaches arises when endoscopic, minimally invasive techniques can be applied to the excision of lesions of the upper part of the face and the midface. Such methods offer several advantages without compromising therapeutic outcome. The specific techniques used will be illustrated as they were applied in several cases.
