Malar deformities can be categorized into types I, II, and III, depending on the presence of bony malar hypoplasia, submalar soft tissue volume loss/ptosis, or both, respectively. Choosing the correct implant design is essential in achieving ideal malar augmentation. A combination of malar, submalar, and malar-submalar implant shapes are available. The surgeon should thoroughly inspect the face for the presence of any significant preexisting facial asymmetries before determining the type and size of implant to be used. The transoral surgical approach allows for rapid and precise placement of malar implants. Implant stabilization in the immediate postoperative period is necessary to minimize the possibility of implant displacement.

As a result, achieving a successful outcome in rhytidectomy requires a nuanced understanding of the underlying anatomy of the face, as well as the natural aging process of the face. All pertinent anatomy of the soft tissues of the face, including relevant cervical anatomy, will be thoroughly discussed in this chapter to provide the surgeon with the core foundation necessary to perform a successful rhytidectomy.

In this chapter, we review the key features and differences between the most common and well-established techniques in facelifting, including conventional SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) techniques such as the lateral-SMASectomy and extended-SMAS procedures such as the deep plane and high-SMAS rhytidectomy techniques. At the core of understanding the differences between these varied facelift types lies a comprehensive understanding of facial anatomy and the facial aging process. In this chapter, the history of facelifting, surgical approaches, and complications pertaining to this iconic surgery are discussed.

The solid, pliable, biocompatible nature of modern alloplastic synthetic implants offers a superior tool in the correction of facial deformities originating from skeletal bony insufficiency. Within the realm of the midface and periorbit, facial deformities are typically encountered stemming from maxillary hypoplasia. Malar augmentation, tear trough correction, and submalar and temporal fossa augmentation are all potential applications of alloplastic implants in facial contouring. In this chapter, we review the pertinent facial anatomy, modern implant material types, and the applications of alloplastic implants in the treatment of common midfacial deformities.

The modern facial plastic surgeon must balance surgical resuspension with volumization to achieve the desired results. Therefore, implants and fillers will forever play a crucial role in the treatment of the aging face.
