Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, and in particular to a surgical instrument for lifting the human face under an endoscope. Background Art

[0002] With a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology of midface aging, plastic surgeons have developed safer midface rejuvenation surgeries. Among them, endoscopic human face lift, also known as endoscopic facial rejuvenation surgery, is a minimally invasive cosmetic surgery method that uses endoscopic technology to lift the face. There are obvious advantages to using an endoscopic temporal approach to treat the midface, which provides a safe separation plane along the deep temporal fascia and the midface, allowing for good observation of the midface anatomy. The magnification of the endoscope allows for better observation of the complex midface anatomy and reduces the incidence of complications.

[0003] The long-lasting effect after face lifting often depends on the full separation of facial tissues, large-scale periosteal release and appropriate facial tissue fixation technology. However, when the tissue below the zygomatic bone (zygomatic fat pad, also known as the "apple muscle") is sutured and suspended in the temporal region in the deep layer (on the periosteum), since the position cannot be sutured and fixed using sutures under normal circumstances, a kind of foreign soft tissue consumables (five-claw mid-face instrument) is often used to provide multiple contact points to suspend and fix the position of the "apple muscle". However, the cost of this soft tissue consumable is relatively high and it is not popular in China. For this reason, the present application proposes a surgical instrument for human face lifting under endoscopy, which can suture and suspend the tissue below the zygomatic bone (zygomatic fat pad, also known as the "apple muscle") in the deep layer (on the periosteum) in the temporal region using sutures. Summary of the invention

[0004] The embodiment of the present application provides a surgical instrument for endoscopic facial lifting. By using needle two and needle one in coordination, the facial tissue is first pulled and lifted to expand the observation line of the endoscope. Then, needle one is used to reserve sutures in the facial tissue, so that the tissue below the zygomatic bone (zygomatic fat pad, also known as "apple muscle") is sutured and suspended in the temporal region in the deep layer (on the periosteum) to achieve lifting and fixation of the "apple muscle".

[0005] The embodiment of the present application provides a surgical instrument for endoscopic human face lifting, comprising a needle tool 1 and a needle tool 2, wherein the needle tool 1 and the needle tool 2 cooperate with each other for use;

[0006] The needle device 1 is configured as a hollow straight-bar needle with openings at both ends, and is used to place the suture thread in the facial tissue. The upper end of the needle device 1 is provided with a needle opening;

[0007] The needle set 2 is a solid L-bar needle, which is used to lift the facial tissue so that the facial tissue is better exposed under the endoscope lens; the needle set 2 is composed of needle bar 1, needle bar 2 and needle bar 3;

[0008] Needle rod two is fixedly connected to the left end of needle rod one, and the connection between the two is rounded. When needle rod one is inserted into facial tissue, the rounded corner of the connection between needle rod two and needle rod one can avoid damage to the facial skin; needle rod three is fixedly connected to the upper end of needle rod two, the upper side of needle rod three is slightly bent to the right, and a needle hole is opened at the upper end of needle rod three.

[0009] Furthermore, needle bar 1, needle bar 2 and needle bar 3 are arranged in an integrated structure, which is formed by bending a solid straight needle bar.

[0010] Furthermore, the needle tool 1 and the needle tool 2 are both made of smooth metal round rods.

[0011] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0012] 1. Use the needle of needle instrument 2 to enter through a small incision in the temporal region, puncture the skin of the "apple muscle" (zygomatic fat pad) and then withdraw it. Then insert needle rod 1 into the facial tissue, lift needle rod 1 with needle rod 3, and use the connection between needle rod 1 and needle rod 2 to lift the facial tissue, so that the facial tissue is better exposed to the endoscope lens.

[0013] 2. After the facial tissue is freed, needle one is inserted from the subzygomatic arch into the peeled cavity, and then moves in the cavity to the temporal incision. The suture passes through the inside of needle one, and then the suture is kept inside needle one. Needle one is withdrawn to the subcutaneous layer of the entry point, and after puncturing the subcutaneous layer for a distance of 3-5mm, it is inserted into the peeled cavity again to the temporal incision. One end of the suture is pulled along the end of needle one that has passed through, and the other side of the suture is continuously staggered in the facial tissue, thereby reserving the suture in the facial tissue. The puncture layer of needle one can be appropriately adjusted to sew the suture at the position of the "apple muscle".

[0014] 3. Through the coordinated use of needle 2 and needle 1, the facial tissue is first pulled and lifted to expand the observation line of the endoscope, and then the suture is reserved in the facial tissue using needle 1. The suture is then used to suture the tissue under the zygomatic bone (the zygomatic fat pad, also known as the "apple muscle") in the deep layer (on the periosteum) and suspend it in the temporal region to achieve the lifting and fixation of the "apple muscle".

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] See also Figure 1-6A surgical instrument for endoscopic face lifting, comprising a needle 10 and a needle 20,

[0029] The needle 10 and the needle 2 20 are used in coordination with each other;

[0030] The needle 10 is configured as a hollow straight-rod needle with openings at both ends, and is used to place the suture in the facial tissue. The upper end of the needle 10 is provided with a needle opening; the needle 2 20 is configured as a solid L-rod needle, and is used to lift the facial tissue so that the facial tissue is better exposed to the endoscope lens; the needle 2 20 is composed of a needle rod 1 21, a needle rod 22, and a needle rod 3 23;

[0031] Needle rod 22 is fixedly connected to the left end of needle rod 1 21, and the connection between the two is rounded. When needle rod 1 21 is inserted into facial tissue, the rounded corner of the connection between needle rod 22 and needle rod 1 21 can avoid damage to the facial skin; needle rod 3 23 is fixedly connected to the upper end of needle rod 22, and the upper side of needle rod 3 23 is slightly bent to the right, and a needle hole is opened at the upper end of needle rod 3 23.

[0032] Needle bar 1 21, needle bar 22 and needle bar 3 23 are configured as an integrated structure, which can be formed by bending a solid straight needle.

[0033] The needle 10 and the needle 2 20 are both made of smooth metal round rods and are provided in different sizes (thickness, length, and width) to facilitate use by different patients.

[0034] The operation of lifting surgery performed under endoscopy using the needle 10 and the needle 2 20 together specifically includes the following process:

[0035] (1) Preoperative preparation: The patient's hair is tied back to leave space for marking the incision in the temporal and paramedian parts of the scalp. The temporal and midface parts are infiltrated with anesthetics to make better observation holes through vasoconstriction and facilitate separation.

[0036] (2) Incisions: The temporal incision provides access to the temporal region and midface;

[0037] (3) Endoscope placement: The endoscope is placed directly into the superficial layer of the deep temporal fascia through an incision and vertically entered for separation. Using the magnification and lighting functions of the endoscope, the doctor can clearly see the muscle and nerve structures in the surgical area. Identifying the temporalis muscle under the deep temporal fascia is useful for ensuring the correct dissection plane. The separation plane should be above the deep temporal fascia.

[0038] (4) Insertion of Needle 2: The needle of Needle 2 is inserted through a small incision in the temporal region, punctured at the skin of the “apple muscle” (zygomatic fat pad) and then withdrawn. Needle 1 is then inserted into the facial tissue, and needle 1 is lifted by needle 3. The connection between needle 1 and needle 2 is used to lift the facial tissue, so that the facial tissue is better exposed to the endoscope lens.

[0039] (5) Suture insertion: After the facial tissue is freed, needle one is inserted from the subzygomatic arch into the peeled cavity, and then moves in the cavity to the temporal incision. The suture passes through the inside of needle one, and then the suture is kept inside needle one. Needle one is withdrawn to the subcutaneous layer of the insertion point, and after puncturing the subcutaneous layer for a distance of 3-5mm, it is inserted into the peeled cavity again to the temporal incision. One end of the suture is pulled along the end of needle one, and the other side of the suture is continuously staggered in the facial tissue, thereby reserving the suture in the facial tissue. The puncture layer of needle one can be appropriately adjusted to sew the suture at the position of the "apple muscle".

[0040] The technical solution in the above-mentioned embodiment of the present application has at least the following technical effects or advantages: through the coordinated use of needle two and needle one, the facial tissue is first pulled and lifted to expand the observation line of the endoscope, and then the suture is reserved in the facial tissue using needle one, so that the tissue under the zygomatic bone (zygomatic fat pad, also known as "apple muscle") is sutured and suspended in the temporal region in the deep layer (on the periosteum) with the suture, thereby achieving the lifting and fixation of the "apple muscle".

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
