[BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE] The zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) is one of the most commonly fractured areas of the midface. As the zygoma is an inherent component of the orbit, any fracture of the ZMC naturally involves the orbital floor. Pr…

[BACKGROUND] Overdevelopment of zygomatic bones often results in protrusion and flaring of the midfacial region. This makes the face appear squarer than the more favorable oval shape. Therefore, zygoma reduction surgery has become a commonl…

[BACKGROUND] This in vitro study compared the stability of different fixation method combinations for the zygomatic complex after simulated L-shaped osteotomy reduction malarplasty, a common facial contouring surgery in East Asia with high …

This case report describes our treatment of a persistent periantral abscess in a 35-year-old woman. The abscess developed following a zygoma-reduction surgery, during which a preexisting fungal ball had not been addressed. Our comprehensive…

[BACKGROUND] Reduction malarplasty (RM) is a common facial contouring procedure among Orientals. Currently, fixation methods selection and placement vectors are controversial. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of different …

[BACKGROUND] Malar/zygoma reduction is an effective procedure to change a broader, flatter facial appearance to an oval facial shape. Of the intraoral and coronal approaches, the intraoral is the more commonly used technique than the corona…

This paper introduces my personal perspective on anatomic structures for reduction malarplasty, mandibular contouring surgery, and masseter muscle resection. The zygomaticofacial nerve innervates a rectangular area, and each side measures 1…

[BACKGROUND] Malarplasty is widely performed for zygoma reduction. The effects of body segmentation, plate bending, and postoperative arch location on zygomatic movement have not been analyzed using computed tomography (CT). [RESULTS] We q…

[BACKGROUND] Revisional malarplasty is the most frequently performed and difficult to perform revision surgery among facial contouring surgeries. The incidence of postoperative complications and need for revision surgery is increasing becau…

[INTRODUCTION] In case of zygomaticomaxillary fibrous dysplasia (FD), surgical treatment is often required due to visual disturbance, exophthalmos, and also necessary for cosmetic reasons. However, it is not easy to determine the timing and…

This study analyzed the outcomes of zygomatico-orbital fracture reconstruction using the real-time navigation system with intraoperative three-dimensional (3D) C-arm computed tomography (CT). Fifteen patients with zygomatico-orbital or isol…

[INTRODUCTION] Endoscopically assisted malarplasty with a greenstick fracture is a method for preserving the body eminence and improving arch protrusion. However, this technique is inadequate when malar body reduction is required. To compen…

[BACKGROUND] An increasing number of transgender females are suffering from a critical gender dysphoria, which often presents as depression and self-destructive behavior. Facial feminization surgery (FFS) is an effective method to alleviate…

[BACKGROUND] With aging, the facial contour shows a double-concave deformity. Conventional facial contouring procedure, including face lifting and fat grafting, cannot yield a smooth facial contour line. This study was the first to propose …

[INTRODUCTION] In order to increase junior resident physician proficiency and improve patient safety, simulation-based procedural training courses, or bootcamps, have been become an emerging educational tool. [OBJECTIVES] To compare pre- a…

The investigators hypothesized there would be differences between the sexes in recovery pattern following bimaxillary orthognathic surgery as measured by patient responses at 5 weeks postprocedure. A total of 378 participants underwent bima…

[PURPOSE] Reduction malarplasty is one of the most common esthetic surgical procedures performed in the Asian population. Traditional procedures have several complications, such as bone nonunion, malunion, cheek drooping, and damage to the …

[PURPOSE] Intraoperative imaging is gaining widespread use in the management of facial fracture repair. The aim of this study was to determine whether intraoperative imaging changes the management of orbital fracture repair. [MATERIALS AND…

[BACKGROUND] Recent anatomical findings have suggested that facial fat distribution is complex and changes with age. Here, the authors developed a grafting technique based on the physiologic distribution and volume changes of facial fat com…
