    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Otolaryngology
    • Cosmetic Procedures

    Background:

    • The double YV mucosal plasty, a surgical lip augmentation technique, was introduced in 1981.
    • This method has demonstrated satisfactory and enduring outcomes, especially in younger patient demographics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the efficacy of the double YV mucosal plasty for lip augmentation.
    • To present an updated approach for lip augmentation in older patients using temporalis fascia grafts.

    Main Methods:

    • The study discusses the historical application of the double YV mucosal plasty.
    • It also details the contemporary use of temporalis fascia grafts for lip augmentation.
    • A combined approach using both techniques is suggested for patients over 40.

    Main Results:

    • The double YV mucosal plasty yields effective and long-lasting lip augmentation results.
    • Temporalis fascia grafts are utilized for lip augmentation in current practice.
    • Combining temporalis fascia grafts with the double YV mucosal plasty is proposed for patients aged 40 and above.

    Conclusions:

    • The double YV mucosal plasty remains a valuable technique for lip augmentation, particularly in younger individuals.
    • For patients over 40, a combined surgical strategy involving temporalis fascia grafting and the double YV mucosal plasty is recommended for enhanced outcomes.
