Subperiosteal Lift Facts

There are many different cosmetic procedures to choose from when a person wishes to enhance or rejuvenate areas of their body. A subperiosteal lift is a procedure in which the soft tissue of the face is lifted to make the face look younger. A subperiosteal lift is a very intricate and highly specialized procedure and should only be performed by a plastic surgeon that has had substantial schooling and experience. Some surgeons prefer to do a subperiosteal lift endoscopically. Although this method causes significantly more swelling, and a longer recovery time, the effects last longer than other methods. Risks of subperiosteal lift include swelling, infection, nerve palsy, facial asymmetry, and delay in wound healing. Some patients may also suffer from medication reactions.
