Abstract:
ObjectiveTo avoid the complications such as scar,alopecie,scalp numbness,hematoma etc,resulted from the conventional coronal incision rhytidectomy,and to explore and solve the issues about endoscopic frontal and temporal rhytidectomy.MethodsThrough 3-5 short incisions in hairline,we dissected under frontal periosteum or gales aponeurotica and in superficial layer of deep temporal fascia.The frontal and temporal cavitites were feedthrough at temporal crest.The corrugator supercilii muscle,superciliary depressor muscle,frontal muscle and orbicularis oculi were treated.Sufficient dissection was done under the periosteum of os orbitale.ResultsThis method had been applied in 186 patients with forehead lift.After operation,transient paralysis of facial nerve frontal branch were found in 3 patients.The depression of glabellum and lateral canthus were found in 5 patients.The depressions were corrected by autologous fat injection. Other 178 patients' results were satisfactory.ConclusionsEndoscopic frontal and temporal rhytidectomy has some advantages,such as minute invasion,less hemorrhage,few complications,and stable operation result,etc.Compared to the conventional coronal incision rhytidectomy,this method will be used more widely.
