“…However, it's important to address misconceptions regarding the effects of filler treatments. Some critics argue that fillers merely puff up the face, creating an unnatural and balloon‐like appearance that can make the skin appear overly taut and the facial structure awkward during expressions 19,20 . While there is a kernel of truth in these concerns—particularly when excessive volumes are used—the SSRT method mitigates such outcomes by judiciously varying the consistency of the fillers used.…”

“…Some critics argue that fillers merely puff up the face, creating an unnatural and balloon‐like appearance that can make the skin appear overly taut and the facial structure awkward during expressions. 19 , 20 While there is a kernel of truth in these concerns—particularly when excessive volumes are used—the SSRT method mitigates such outcomes by judiciously varying the consistency of the fillers used. This approach ensures that enhancements contribute to the facial structure without the drawbacks of excessive volumization, thus reducing the potential for complications associated with overuse of fillers.…”

BackgroundThe skin & SMAS layer remodeling technique (SSRT) represents a significant advancement in facial aesthetic treatments. Traditional methods primarily address wrinkles and volume loss, whereas SSRT focuses on achieving both volume and natural lifting effects through strategic filler injections. This technique emphasizes the anatomical and dynamic properties of facial tissues, particularly the SMAS, to enhance facial symmetry and contours while maintaining natural movement.Materials and MethodsSSRT employs a combination of firm and soft hyaluronic acid fillers to sculpt a youthful, dynamic appearance, simulating the natural lift of a smiling expression. This study explores the effects of gravity on facial tissues and uses advanced imaging techniques to corroborate the shifting of tissues. The technique is compared with other recognized methods, such as true lift and myomodulation, to evaluate its effectiveness in balancing volume enhancement and dynamic facial expressions.ResultsThe results indicate that SSRT uniquely balances volume enhancement and dynamic facial expressions, achieving a visibly lifted but natural appearance. The use of advanced imaging techniques substantiates SSRT's effectiveness by showing the shifting of tissues. SSRT reduces the risks associated with excessive filler use and aligns with contemporary aesthetic preferences.ConclusionSSRT offers a novel approach by mimicking the facial lift observed when lying down, providing insights into potential transformative “lifts” when upright. By strategically combining firm and soft hyaluronic acid fillers, SSRT achieves a balance of volume and lift, enhancing facial symmetry and maintaining natural movement. This technique represents a significant advancement in facial aesthetic treatments, offering a natural and dynamic alternative to traditional methods.

“…This requires a focus on the anatomical positioning and structure of the soft tissues overlying the facial bones, taking into account the changes that occur with aging, rather than solely focusing on skeletal structures. 1 Therefore, an accurate analysis of the face, aligned with contemporary aesthetic standards and tailored to the individual differences of each patient, becomes essential.…”
