An improved technique for zygoma reduction malarplasty

Zygoma reduction malarplasty is a standard procedure primarily performed in Asia on patients who prefer an oval facial shape. The technique is well established and standardized. However, the esthetic results are frequently unsatisfactory or accompanied by complications such as nonunion, malunion, and cheek drooping. These complications are generally attributed to postoperative bone fragment movement.In this study, we present an improvement to this standard procedure that involves modifying the surgical technique.
