Summary
Facial aging, particularly perioral atrophy, can be addressed through rejuvenation techniques. This study details fillers, surgery, and resurfacing for effective correction and improved outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Aesthetic medicine and facial rejuvenation surgery.
Background:
- Facial aging is characterized by atrophy, most prominent in the perioral region.
- Perioral aging significantly impacts facial aesthetics and perceived youthfulness.
Purpose of the Study:
- To discuss and detail various rejuvenation techniques for the aging perioral region.
- To provide a comprehensive overview of corrective approaches including fillers, surgery, and facial resurfacing.
Main Methods:
- Detailed explanation of surgical techniques for perioral rejuvenation.
- Discussion of different types of facial fillers, their composition, and application.
- Outline of facial resurfacing methods for perioral enhancement.
Main Results:
- Analysis of filler composition, clinical outcomes, and duration of effect.
- Presentation of clinical photographs illustrating preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative results.
- Evaluation of the effectiveness of surgical and resurfacing techniques.
Conclusions:
- Perioral rejuvenation can be achieved through a combination of fillers, surgery, and resurfacing.
- Understanding filler properties is crucial for optimal and long-lasting results.
- These techniques offer effective correction for age-related perioral atrophy.

01:14Muscles for Facial Expressions
The craniofacial muscles are a collection of approximately 20 thin skeletal muscles situated beneath the skin of the face and scalp. These muscles, primarily responsible for the vast array of human facial expressions, originate from the bones or fibrous structures of the skull and extend outwards to connect with the skin. While most skeletal muscles in the body are enveloped in thick fascia, facial muscles generally have a more delicate fascial covering, with the buccinator muscle being a...
01:12Renewal of Skin Epidermal Stem Cells
The skin is divided into epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis, the skin's outermost, middle, and inner layers. The human epidermal layer regularly undergoes renewal, where old, dead cells are replaced by new cells. Epidermal stem cells or EpiSCs divide and differentiate to restore the lost cells. For the renewal process, some EpiSCs continuously self-renew. In contrast, few others differentiate into transit-amplifying cells, which later form prickle or spinous cells, followed by granular cells,...
