“…These were performed under local anaesthesia without undermining and using direct closure with controlled skin tension and often involving multiple sessions. 30 Modern subcutaneous lifting started being performed in the 1930s as a result of linking the multiple skin excisions with a continuous incision, along with the release of subcutaneous attachments. 28 Interestingly, even with this advance in technique a pattern was emerging, acknowledging the advance as being 'too much for the would-be surgeon' .…”

“…By the late 1920s the benefit of undermining the skin for a short distance was appreciated. 30 To improve the cheek correction, the skin dissection progressively extended towards the nasolabial fold, usually, but not always, stopping a few centimetres short of this landmark. 29 Similarly, poor facelift results were being seen, with an unnatural appearance resulting from tightly stretched skin.…”

“…Kurze Zeit später wurde die Technik des Facelifts bzw. der Gesichtsstraffung verbessert, indem ausgedehntere Hautunterminierungen und Fettentfernungen vorgenommen wurden [3,4]. Es vergingen viele Jahre, in denen solche einfache subkutane Liftings durchgeführt wurden, bis in den 70er Jahren neue Techniken vorgestellt wurden.…”

“…Bei ausgedehnter SMAS-Präparation kann das mobilisierte SMAS im Bereich des Ohrläppchens inzidiert werden, so dass 2 Schenkel entstehen und einer präaurikulär im Bereich der Fascia temporalis profunda und der andere Schenkel retroaurikulär im Bereich der Fascia mastoidea verankert wird [3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14]. Hierdurch wird eine zusätzliche Langzeitunterstützung für die Suspension der tiefen Schichten gewährleistet und eine bessere Wangen-bzw.…”

The demand for a younger appearance is increasing as the average age of the population increases. Extensive anatomic studies in recent years have improved for facial and breast reconstruction the understanding of anatomic structures and the basis of the aging process. Numerous new surgical techniques have resulted. This understanding of the anatomy of aging and the diversity of surgical methods have made the attainment of naturally young facial appearance more easily possible, in which repositioning of the tissue plays a more important role than lifting. In the past, plastic surgery of the eyelids aimed primarily at hiding the aging process, not at true anatomic restoration. Modern techniques in this field aim more toward redistribution of fatty tissues and the anatomic restoration of aging structures. In this way long-term results are stabilized and secondary stigmata can be avoided. New concepts have also been established in breast surgery that allow more natural results, particularly in augmentation. Although no single method may be designated as superior, there still exists an optimal technique suited to every patient's anatomy and personal wishes.

“…In 1920 and 1921, Bettman 9 and Bourguet 10 were independently credited with the first subcutaneous rhytidectomy. Unlike previous procedures, this one consisted of extensive undermining and lipectomy.…”
