Profiloplasty in One Session Versus Single Treatment Areas.

BACKGROUND Fillers have been widely used to improve facial profile, and a better result is obtained if the entire profile is treated at the same time. OBJECTIVE To compare the outcomes of 2 groups of patients: the former undergoing a treatment in a single area to improve the facial profile, and the latter undergoing a total profiloplasty reharmonization in 1 session. MATERIALS AND METHODS The outcomes of this study have been evaluated using both the angle of convexity and the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale method. RESULTS This study demonstrates that the approval rating increases by 56.3% for patients, 81.3% for the practitioner, and 76.3% for an independent practitioner when a synchronous treatment is used to improve the facial profile as compared with a single treatment of 1 profile area. CONCLUSION The profiloplasty treatment in 1 session allows the achievement of a more harmonic facial profile and increases the patient's approval as compared with treatments of a single facial area.
