Rejuvenation of the Mid-face
Abstract:
Mid-face rejuvenation has long been a difficult area for aesthetic facial surgeons.
In this article the author reviews the techniques currently available and examines in depth
two techniques that he feels are noteworthy for their efficacy in improving mid-face
aging. One of these techniques is the “SMAS division mid-face lift” which targets aging
of the mid-face associated with a deep nasolabial fold. The other technique is known as a
“SOOF lift blepharoplasty” and helps to improve aging of the lower lid associated with a
tear trough deformity. Facial aesthetic surgeons should gain a better appreciation of the
approaches available for improving this challenging area after digesting the contents of
this review article.
