Q

Supraperiosteal technique for cheek filler

A

0.2ml at apex, followed by 3 x 0.1ml injections along zygoma

21
Q

Piriform fossa

A

Treat maxillary recession

Improving nasolabial fold appearance

22
Q

Piriform fossa technique

A

Supraperiosteal bolus

Cannula passes through layer 2

26
Q

Ligament of the midface

A

Orbicularis retaining ligament

Zygomatic cutaneous ligament

27
Q

Aging process in the midface

A

resorption of maxilla bone

maxillary angle reduces

pyriform apeture of nose widens

orbit widens

28

29
Q

Location of SOOF

A

inferior to orbicularis retaining ligament

superior to zygomatic cutaneous ligament

30
Q

What is the SMAS

A

Layer 3

Superficial musculoaponeurotic system

A

Lateral cheek fat pad

33
Q

Transient piriform fossa filler side effect

A

Temporary upper lip anaesthesia from lidocaine infiltration to trigeminal nerve

34
