    Background:

    • Malar augmentation is common in Caucasians.
    • Prominent zygoma is a frequent concern for Oriental individuals seeking facial contouring.
    • Reduction malar plasty is less frequently reported than augmentation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the authors' specific surgical technique for reduction malar plasty.
    • To present clinical cases illustrating the efficacy of the reduction malar plasty method.
    • To address the aesthetic goals of Oriental patients desiring a more oval facial shape.

    Main Methods:

    • Detailed description of the authors' reduction malar plasty surgical approach.
    • Presentation of multiple case studies involving patients undergoing the procedure.
