The use of submalar augmentation in facial rejuvenation surgery satisfies the need for enhancement of the midface to obtain longer lasting and better results from rhytidectomy. Submalar augmentation is a new surgical technique that positions anatomically designed silicone implants over the midthird of the face. It provides the appearance of restoring midfacial soft tissue and reduces the depth of anterior facial folds. The enhanced underlying bone structure avoids exerting excessive tension on the skin during face-lift surgery, thus preventing distortion of midfacial architecture. Submalar augmentation is a procedure that has been used as a supplementary enhancement to rhytidectomy in 56 patients over six and one-half years. Only minimal complications have been reported, all of which have been satisfactorily resolved. To date, no implant has been rejected or permanently removed. In our experience, when performed in conjunction with rhytidectomy, submalar augmentation has greatly enhanced and prolonged the results of face-lift surgery, and has significantly increased patient satisfaction.
在面部年轻化手术中使用颧下填充可满足对面中部进行提升的需求,从而使除皱手术获得更持久、更好的效果。颧下填充是一种新的手术技术,将解剖学设计的硅胶植入物放置在面部中三分之一处。它能恢复面中部软组织外观,并减少面部前褶的深度。增强后的下方骨骼结构可避免在面部提升手术中对皮肤施加过大张力,从而防止面中部结构变形。在六年半的时间里,颧下填充作为除皱手术的辅助增强手段,已应用于56例患者。据报道,仅有轻微并发症,且均得到了满意解决。迄今为止,没有植入物被排斥或永久取出。根据我们的经验,与除皱手术联合进行时,颧下填充极大地增强并延长了面部提升手术的效果,显著提高了患者满意度。
