proposed to be major advantages. However, the lifting of the facial structures superiorly in one vector and the alteration of the anatomic localization of all the structures for repositioning of the facial fat pads correctly is a conflict to be illuminated in the future. Lower eyelid blepharoplasty combined with the same incision is claimed to result in fewer complications, despite the fact that restricted release and fixation of the face-lift flap could have negative effects on the blepharoplasty and face-lift in the long term. The anatomic regions of the face should be considered separately and the surgical procedures should be applied according to the distinct properties of these regions. The author has accomplished these techniques more successfully in selected and exceptional patients recently.
The similar properties of the skin and SMAS are revealed by anatomic studies. The attachments of the mimetic muscles to the skin and subcutaneous tissue in the nasolabial region constitute the nasolabial fold. Because of the redistribution of the cheek fat pad without any alteration in the skin composition and while maintaining the projections of surface landmarks within the cheek mass during smiling, SMAS plication for repositioning of the fat pads, rather than SMAS mobilization, is sufficient. The plication also increases SMAS stability and resistance and, in some instances, Vicryl mesh use is reported. The vectors of plication should be planned perpendicular to the relaxation of the SMAS by the mimetic muscles, so that repositioning of the fat pads is accomplished in addition to the strong stabilization of the SMAS, meanwhile reestablishing the contour of the nasolabial fold. The plication or Vicryl mesh use in the middle cheek region is efficient in accordance with the delicate and loose structure of the SMAS. The rigid and tight property of SMAS in the parotid region prevents excessive relaxation [32].
The dissection in the new localizations of the retaining ligaments of the face should be held deeper, leaving more subcutaneous tissue in the face-lift flap, and the figure-of-eight or continuous suturing techniques with colorless 5–0 propylene could decrease the possible irregularities in the soft tissue and dimpling. The SMAS plication and restabilization of the retaining ligaments of face are necessary for restoration of the normal anatomic structures of the face [32].
The development of SMAS surgery revealed the subperiosteal approach, allowing the repositioning of the ligaments of the middle cheek over the periosteum of the zygoma. However, retaining ligaments may cause some interior difficulties; first of all the mobilization of the vertical limb of the L is not possible, because it is formed by the masseteric fascia rather than the periost. Second, restricted repositioning of the medial cheek and nasolabial fold was encountered because of insufficient tension over the unblocked periosteum of the middle cheek region.
While knotting each suture, the probable dimples on the skin are watched. If there is a dimple that probably appeared because the traction is too wide or vertical or the suture is placed too superficial, the suture is changed. The fundamentals of face-lift surgery should include the fixation parallel to the natural anatomic ligaments unrestricting the functional results. The SMAS indicates various properties throughout the regions of face and is strengthened with vertical retaining ligaments including the deep fibrils of the reticula cutis.
The description of the zygomatic and masseteric retaining ligaments of the cheek supports extended SMAS face-lift surgery with the function and the localization of the retaining ligaments taken into consideration in the mobilization of the flaps.
For this relief, dissection underlies the expanded SMAS and composite techniques. The principle of fixation at the middle cheek region instead of the preauricular region is proposed with the help of the better understanding of the localization of the retaining ligaments and the deep attachments that form a mobile medial cheek and a less mobile part laterally [10, 11].
36.7Postoperative Care and Complications
To prevent dimples, the dissection should be deep and eight sutures are placed instead of one by one. The dimples caused by postoperative edema disappear in 2–4 weeks and this period decreases by soft massage on this region. The probable tension of the skin flap in preauricular region is reduced by SMAS

plication and flatting of retaining ligaments and so the expanded skin can be better contoured. It provides a more reliable dicession plane because the Sub-SMAS dicession is not made. According to observations, blepharoplasty is more useful in terms of midface restoration. Face-lift with blepharoplasty should be kept in mind to be applied for appropriate cases. The risk of hematoma can be prevented by a good hemostasis, an annular 5–8F axiom drain on the face-lift flap region,
and a soft dressing that doesn’t affect the viability of the skin flap. When no sub-SMAS dicession is applied, the recovery of a pathology in the facial nerve branches will be in 4–6 weeks, specifically in the mandibular branch region, if there is no action.
With this technique, the reposition of the facial fat pad, strengthening of the SMAS, fixation of the retaining ligaments, and tension of the skin flap can be supplied (Figs. 36.19–36.21) [32].
