    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Facial Anatomy

    Background:

    • Rhytidectomy (facelift) techniques require adaptation for diverse facial anatomies.
    • Oriental facial structures present unique considerations for achieving optimal surgical outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a specialized rhytidectomy technique tailored for the Oriental face.
    • To elucidate key procedural steps that enhance results and minimize complications.
    • To compare the anatomical considerations of Oriental and Caucasian rhytidectomy.

    Main Methods:

    • Preoperative design of incision lines.
    • Subcutaneous undermining.
    • Application of key sutures between auricular cartilage and cheek skin.
    • Utilization of specific incision patterns to preserve earlobe contour.

    Main Results:

    • The described technique facilitates easy subcutaneous undermining.
    • Key sutures effectively prevent scar widening.
    • Specialized incisions mitigate downward earlobe deformation.
    • Distinct anatomical differences between Japanese and Caucasian faces in rhytidectomy are identified.

    Conclusions:

    • The presented rhytidectomy technique offers a refined approach for Oriental facial structures.
    • Attention to specific anatomical variations and procedural details is crucial for successful outcomes.
    • This method aims to improve aesthetic results and patient satisfaction in Oriental rhytidectomy.
