2 The Triangle of Youth Becomes the Pyramid of Aging General Principles for the Upper Face Hyperfunctional rhytides are the most prominent feature in the upper face Botulinum toxin has become the standard of care for nonsurgical upper facial rejuvenation Volume changes in the upper face include deflation of the brow and hollowing of the temples Gravitational changes lead to descent of underlying muscle and soft tissue Adapted from Zimbler MS et al. Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am. 2001;9: Carruthers JD et al. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2008;121(5Suppl.):5S 30S. Elevator/Depressors/Abductors of Brows Facial muscles responsible for vertical and horizontal glabellar rhytides, forehead rhytides, and brow depression and elevation Corrugator Orbicularis Oculi Frontalis General Principles for the Midface Key to midface rejuvenation is volume restoration Dermal fillers Panfacial volumizing agents Malar contour should be restored Treatment of malar area improves surrounding areas, such as NLF Depressor Supercilii Procerus NLF, nasolabial fold.

3 General Principles for the Lower Face: Restoring Volume The primary goals are to restore volume, control muscle hypermobility, and treat for rhytides View and treat the lower face as a whole rather than as individual regions Treatment with fillers is considered standard of care However, consider combination treatment with botulinum toxin and dermal filler where appropriate When treating the lips, it is important to consider shaping as well as volumizing When treating the perioral area with botulinum toxin, avoid overtreatment to prevent mouth incompetence Injectable Botulinum Toxins Produced by various strains of Clostridium botulinum Seven known serotypes Serotypes A and B developed for clinical use Serotype A OnabotulinumtoxinA = BOTOX Cosmetic AbobotulinumtoxinA = Dysport IncobotulinumtoxinA = Xeomin Serotype B rimabotulinumtoxinb = MYOBLOC Carruthers Carruthers JD et JD al. et Plast al.
