Recognition and experience
Care shaped by experience.
Dr. Ekrem Keskin’s recognitions are part of the wider context patients can review when considering facial surgery.
01 / Understanding the procedure
What is an endoscopic facelift?
An endoscopic facelift is a facial rejuvenation approach that may use small access points and an endoscopic camera to help the surgeon visualize deeper facial structures. Depending on your anatomy and surgical plan, selected tissues may be mobilized, repositioned and fixed to improve areas of descent and loss of definition.
The technique is considered as part of a wider assessment rather than as a universal replacement for other facelift approaches. Skin quality, tissue descent, facial proportions and treatment goals all influence whether an endoscopic approach may be suitable.
A consultation allows Dr. Ekrem Keskin to understand what you would like to change, review relevant photographs and discuss possible options. The aim is a plan that is specific to your face, not a technique selected from a template.
Discuss your case online →02 / Individual suitability
Is endoscopic facelift right for you?
Suitability depends on anatomy, skin quality, the degree of tissue descent, your facial ageing pattern and your treatment goals.
- Loss of cheek definition
- Midface descent
- Early nasolabial fold deepening
- Early facial tissue laxity
- Changes around the cheek and infraorbital area
- Preference for smaller, concealed access points where appropriate
- Limited lower-face or neck laxity

03 / Choosing an approach
Endoscopic facelift vs deep plane facelift
A neutral comparison can help you prepare for a more useful consultation. Neither approach is universally superior.
| Consideration | Endoscopic facelift | Deep plane facelift |
|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | Selected midface and upper facial rejuvenation | Broader midface and lower-face repositioning for selected patients |
| Surgical access | Small, concealed access points where appropriate | Access depends on the chosen deep-plane approach |
| Tissue planes | Endoscopic visualization of deeper structures | Release and repositioning within deeper facial planes |
| Lower-face laxity | Limited lower-face laxity may be a consideration | May be considered when lower-face laxity is more pronounced |
| Neck laxity | Usually limited neck laxity is considered | Neck treatment may be discussed when clinically appropriate |
| Individual suitability | Determined in consultation | Determined in consultation |
The appropriate technique depends on your facial anatomy, degree of ageing and treatment goals.

12 / Questions patients ask
Endoscopic facelift FAQ
Clear answers for patients considering an online consultation from the UK, USA or Europe.
What is an endoscopic facelift?
An endoscopic facelift uses small access points and an endoscopic camera to help visualize deeper facial structures. Depending on your anatomy and plan, tissues may be repositioned to address selected areas of facial ageing. It is not appropriate for every patient.
Who is a candidate for endoscopic facelift?
Suitability depends on your anatomy, skin quality, degree of tissue descent, facial ageing pattern and goals. Only an individual consultation can determine whether the approach is appropriate for you.
Is endoscopic facelift the same as deep plane facelift?
No. They are different approaches with different considerations around access, tissue planes and the areas being addressed. Neither approach is universally superior.
Does endoscopic facelift leave visible scars?
Access points are planned in concealed areas where appropriate, but all incisions heal differently. Scar visibility depends on healing, skin quality and the individual surgical plan.
How long is recovery?
Recovery varies from patient to patient. Swelling, bruising and tightness can be more noticeable early on, while tissues and scars may continue to settle over several months.
Can I have an online consultation?
Yes. International patients can begin by sharing their concerns, goals and relevant photographs online. An online consultation does not replace an in-person medical assessment.
When can I fly home after surgery?
You should allow sufficient time in Istanbul for postoperative assessment before flying home. Exact timing depends on the individual procedure and recovery.
Is endoscopic facelift suitable for everyone?
No. Only an individual consultation can determine whether endoscopic facelift is appropriate for you.
