Profiloplasty in One Session Versus Single Treatment Areas

Area of Science:

• Aesthetic medicine
• Facial rejuvenation
• Dermatology

Background:

• Dermal fillers are commonly used for facial profile enhancement.
• Optimal results are often achieved by treating the entire facial profile concurrently.

Purpose of the Study:

• To compare patient outcomes between single-area facial profile treatments and total profiloplasty reharmonization in a single session.

Main Methods:

• Patient outcomes were assessed using the angle of convexity and the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS).
• Two groups were compared: one receiving single-area treatment and the other receiving total profiloplasty.

Main Results:

• Synchronous treatment led to a 56.3% increase in patient approval, 81.3% in practitioner approval, and 76.3% in independent practitioner approval.
• Total profiloplasty demonstrated superior aesthetic improvement compared to single-area treatments.

Conclusions:

• Single-session total profiloplasty effectively creates a more harmonious facial profile.
• This comprehensive approach significantly boosts patient satisfaction and aesthetic approval ratings.
