Abstract

The authors describe the minimal incisions vertical endoscopic lifting (MIVEL) technique for periocular upper facial aesthetic rejuvenation. The technique emphasizes a scarless approach to address upper facial involutional changes by addressing the vertical vector of brow tissue descent with elevation and the three-dimensional volume loss with volume restoration.
