The introduction of endoscopic plastic surgery provides a new look at
facial anatomy. Since this is different from that seen when the tradit
ional approach is used it is important to have a clear understanding o
f the endoscopically viewed facial anatomy before proceeding to perfor
m endoscopic face-lifting. This paper presents cadaveric dissections o
f each stage of the endoscopically-assisted face and neck lift, previo
usly described by Bostwik, Nahai and Eaves [1].
