What is Buccal Fat Pad Augmentation for Midfacial Rejuvenation: Modified Fat Grafting Technique and Ogee Line Remodeling about?
## Abstract ## Background The volume and position of the buccal fat pad (BFP) change with age, which manifests as a hollow midface. Previous studies showed that autologous fat grafting for BFP augmentation could effectively ameliorate midfacial hollowing. ## Objectives The aim of this study was to introduce a modified fat grafting technique for female patients with midfacial hollowing to restore the volume of BFP, and to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this approach. ## Methods Two cadavers were used for the dissection of the BFP and to demonstrate the surgical procedures. Forty-eight patients were treated for midfacial hollowing with the modified grafting strategy. The BFP was filled through a percutaneous zygomatic incision and an immediate amelioration in the hollow area was observed. Improvements were evaluated from measurements of the ogee line and ogee angle, FACE-Q questionnaires, and 3-party satisfaction ratings. Clinical profiles were reviewed and statistically analysed. ## Results The mean [standard deviation] ogee angle was 6.6° [1.9°] preoperatively and 3.9° [1.4°] postoperatively (average reduction, 2.7°). Patients’ ogee lines were smoother postoperatively, wi
