Periorbital Rejuvenation for Asians

Abstract

A primary concern in facial aesthetics is the rejuvenation of periorbital areas through soft tissue recontouring, skin texture improvement, and harmoniousness with souring anatomic tissues. Currently, the ease of harvesting, abundance in volume, and lack of immune rejection make autologous fat transplantation a disruptive strategy in aesthetic medicine. The evolution and improvements made by myriad surgeons have contributed to the popularity of periorbital rejuvenation and have highlighted its indispensability in Asian patients. Lin and colleagues have advocated the technique of microautologous fat transplantation since 2007 for facial recontouring and rejuvenation. This article illustrates more in-depth technical details and innovative concepts for the improvement of the periorbita.
