BACKGROUND: Cheek drooping after reduction malarplasty remains a concern for patients.
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the anti-drooping effectiveness of the bracing system technique with the preservation of the zygomaticus major muscle (ZMj) bony attachment and to determine the role of ZMj in anti-drooping.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted of patients who accepted this method in our department from February 2016 to May 2021. Patients' subjective evaluation and two plastic surgeons' objective assessment of photographs were performed. The pre- and postoperative three-dimensional (3D) ZMj models were reconstructed and compared. ZMj length and tortuosity were also measured from 3D models.
RESULTS: Twenty-two patients (44 ZMjs) met the inclusion criteria. Most patients (21/22, 95.45%) were satisfied with the postoperative appearance without ageing after reduction malarplasty, except for one feeling slightly older after the operation. The objective scoring results showed no deepening of the nasolabial fold in the majority (20/22, 90.91%) of patients. Two patients were one-grade worse, from score 1 to 2. Upward movement of the postoperative ZMj bony attachment was clearly observed compared with the preoperative 3D model. The significantly reduced ZMj tortuosity (p < 0.001) and the slightly increased ZMj length (not significant) after surgery supported the straightening of the ZMj which was also seen in the 3D comparison.
CONCLUSIONS: The bracing system technique with preservation of the bony attachment of the ZMj is an effective and cost-effective anti-sagging method for reduction malarplasty. The ZMj was lifted and straightened after reduction malarplasty, which helped to prevent sagging.
