“…2-4 Due to its unique anatomical features, this region has also been the subject of various rejuvenation procedures including augmentation cheiloplasty, soft tissue fillers, laser assisted and chemical peeling. 5, 6 The orolabial region is frequently affected by treatment procedures dealing with congenital deformities, trauma and orthognathic surgery as well as during orthodontic teeth movement.…”

The orolabial region frequently undergoes significant changes following trauma, orthognathic surgery or orthodontics. Ethnicity, age and gender specific normative data are needed during the planning phase before surgical interventions in this region. In 2008 the British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery published anthropometric lip measurements of Chinese children; however such reference data for Chinese young adults are currently unavailable. Therefore this cross-sectional study using 3-D facial photographs acquired from 103 healthy Chinese young adults with Class I skeletal pattern was conducted to deliver normative data for this age group. Anthropometric landmarks were identified on these 3-D images and linear, angular measurements as well as proportions were calculated. It was found that all orolabial measurements were significantly higher in males other than the labiomental angle. No gender differences were found in the anthropometric proportions. This study established the orolabial anthropometric normative data for Chinese young adults. These norms can be used to objectively evaluate the morphology of the lips during diagnosis, treatment planning and assessment of treatment outcomes.

“…Treatment of facial wrinkles with dermis grafts or fascia was described by Meyer and Kesselring [4] and Peer and Paddock [61. However, as we have come to recognize the disappointing short-term effects of injectable collagen or fat, a reappraisal of the value and techniques for using dermis grafts is now appropriate.…”

“…been used during the past five years to augment the vermilion and nasolabial folds, and is a technique reported by Meyer and Kesserling [4], although they favored the use of temporal fascia. More recently, Hinderer and Escalona [2] reported the injection of diced dermis in an experimental study.…”

Results are presented of dermis grafts used in conjunction with surgery for aging changes in the face. During a two-year period grafts were used to correct crease lines in the glabella and nasolabial creases, as well as angles of the mouth and vermilion. Volume of the grafts was well maintained and very few complications occurred. This technique offers better long-term results than can be obtained by collagen or fat injections. The results and techniques are presented in detail.

“…The surgical techniques used aimed at shortening [1,2], remodeling [8], and augmenting the lips [5], as well as a combination of these [7]. The use of buried, dermofat local flaps, saved when shortening the lips to fill in creases around them as published in 1978 [6] (Figs.…”

Upper and lower lip augmentation by buried, deepithelialized local flaps: An alternative to the use of foreign material implants when shortening the lips

Augmentation of the lips has become a new request among patients searching for aesthetic improvement, although it is a very old goal among plastic surgeons when enhancing facial harmony. The simplicity of injecting synthetic material may have contributed to this request; nevertheless, the short-term duration and bizarre results seen with these materials, convinces us to the beneficial effects of our "good, old-fashioned" surgical methods with autologous tissues.
