When performed together, submalar augmentation and facelift synergistically enhance facial rejuvenation results. Determine the long-term safety and efficacy of submalar implant augmentation as an adjunct to facelift. Retrospective review evaluating results and complications in all consecutive patients who had submalar implant augmentation with SMAS-plication facelift in a single surgeon private practice setting from January 1, 1991, to December 31, 2017. Forty-eight patients underwent submalar augmentation with simultaneous facelift with an overall satisfaction rate of 95.7%. Complications included 2.1%transient infraorbital hypoesthesia, 1.1% prolonged swelling, and 1.1% capsular contraction that required a minor adjustmen...Continue Reading
