Aim: The author describes a new endoscopic midface lifting technique using solely temporal access and evaluates its advantages and perspectives.Methods: This is a single-surgeon case study. Through a short temporal incision, dissection is performed along a single plane connecting the superifcial surfaces of both the facial and temporal superifcial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) layers. Subsequent midface dissection divides the malar fat pad into the deeper and superifcial parts. A new concept of a combination high malar SMAS lift and intal skin lfap anchorage that provides long-term stability is described.Results: The temporal endoscopic midface (TEM) lift technique resulted in good objective results with high patient satisfaction. The temporal access allowed proper vertical vector correction of the sagging centro-facial structures. The resulting scar was inconspicuous and hidden in the hair bearing skin, and its length was measured between 5-6 cm. A conversion to the conventional long facial scar approach was completely avoided.Conclusion:The TEM lift is a new and effective procedure for facial rejuvenation, especially the midface and cheek. The results illustrate the importance of intal anchorage of both the midface SMAS and skin lfap. These are the keys to long-lasting and pleasing results. The procedure is best suited for younger men and women with little or no neck skin laxity.
