VILLAFUERTE VELEZ, César Kelly; MARQUES VILLAFUERTE, Luana  and  RESTREPO VILLAFUERTE, Paloma. Hybrid facial rejuvenation in intermediate aging: 18 years of closed circular rhytidopexy and ancillary procedures. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2022, vol.48, n.1, pp.29-36.  Epub May 02, 2022. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922022000100005.

Background and objective.

We present a group of techniques called hybrid facial rejuvenation (HFR) as a less invasive or traumatic alternative indicated in patients between 30 and 55 years old, age group of the senile intermediate stage, who request effective outpatient procedures, with rapid recovery and early labor and social integration.

Methods.

In this group of simultaneous techniques practiced stands out: closed circular peri-auricular deep ritidopexy (round block Stochero), without skin removal (Formula 1) or with excision without undermining (Formula 2); closed or open cervicoplasty, blepharoplasty, chemical peeling, malar and nasolabial fold lipotransfer, depending on the individual surgical plan.

Results.

Between 2002 to 2019 were treated 482 patients, 95% between 30 and 55 years old (average age of 52 years), 85% female and 15% male; 84% of the surgeries were primary cases and 16% secondary. The satisfaction index pear 1 year, of 452 cases, were good for 89% patients. Complications were minimal and under 1.6%.

Conclusions.

Our set of techniques, called together as HFR, preferably indicated for individuals between 30 and 55 years, showed excellent results with ambulatory procedures under local anesthesia, minimal morbidity and allow a short convalescence with quick return to different daily activities.
