    Area of Science:

    • Craniofacial Surgery
    • Plastic Surgery
    • Aesthetic Surgery

    Background:

    • Midface hypoplasia presents significant functional and aesthetic challenges.
    • Corrective surgeries for craniofacial anomalies require careful planning and execution.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review outcomes of midface advancement surgery in a large patient cohort.
    • To analyze techniques and indications for different types of midface deformities.
    • To emphasize the importance of aesthetic outcomes in reconstructive surgery.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 162 midface advancement cases over a decade.
    • Categorization of cases into primary maxillary hypoplasia, post-cleft deformities, and major craniofacial anomalies.
    • Discussion of surgical indications and techniques tailored to specific deformities.

    Main Results:

    • Successful functional and aesthetic outcomes were achieved across diverse patient groups.
    • Specific techniques were identified as optimal for different craniofacial conditions.
    • A comprehensive facial aesthetic approach contributed to patient satisfaction.

    Conclusions:

    • Midface advancement is an effective procedure for correcting a range of midface deficiencies.
    • Tailoring surgical techniques to specific deformities and prioritizing aesthetic goals are crucial for optimal results.
    • This approach ensures both functional restoration and improved facial appearance.
