What Does a Natural Facelift Look Like?
At BLS Surgery Center, facelifts are performed by board-certified plastic surgeons using deep-layer lifting techniques targeting the SMAS layer (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System)—the tissue layer between facial muscles and fat that supports skin firmness.
As we age, the SMAS layer begins to sag, leading to wrinkles, loose skin, and an aged appearance. Deep-layer facelifts aim to correct this sagging, restoring smoothness, firmness, and youthful contours. This procedure is ideal for those seeking long-term facial rejuvenation.
This natural facelift technique focuses on the SMAS layer, avoiding surface tension and resulting in a smooth, firm, and youthful appearance. A key highlight is the hidden incision technique, with scars discreetly placed along the hairline or behind the ears—virtually invisible even in early recovery. The results are long-lasting and ideal for those seeking safe, natural-looking facial lifting.
Choosing a SMAS-layer facelift by a board-certified plastic surgeon ensures aesthetic excellence, safety, and confidence in naturally beautiful results.
Can You Get a Facelift with an Endoscope?
Many patients love the Endoscopic Brow Lift (Endo-Brow Lift) for its ability to lift brows, correct drooping, and rejuvenate the upper face—without visible scars. This raises the question: can a facelift also be performed endoscopically?
At BLS Surgery Center, the answer is yes. We offer Endoscopic Facelift (Endo-Facelift), also known as Endotine Facelift. This technique addresses sagging cheeks, deep nasolabial folds, marionette lines, jowls, and double chin—without traditional surgery. Using a small incision, an endoscope is inserted to lift the face, and Endotine Midface is used to anchor tissue in the cheeks, chin, and neck.
Benefits include:
- Reduced nasolabial folds and marionette lines
- Lifted mouth corners and brighter smile
- Slimmer, more defined facial contour
- Firm, youthful skin with minimal scarring
- Long-lasting results with hidden sutures
