Aesthetic evolution drives birth of minimally invasive surgery subgroup

Descripción:

Facial and neck skin tightening, and rejuvenation began decades ago with maximally invasive incisional face‐lift surgery. Aesthetic trends, patient demands, and innovative technology brought about minimally invasive and noninvasive interventions—such as radiofrequency, ultrasound, laser and intense pulsed light as well as dermal fillers and other injectables—to address facial and neck skin laxity. These procedures reduce facial and neck skin laxity with less risk and less downtime than maximally invasive face‐lift or face‐lift plus liposuction; however, these interventions are often deemed to offer reduced results.
