          Abstract

          ABSTRACT: In addition to functionally correcting skeletal facial deformities, orthognathic surgery also has a great impact on aesthetics and facial proportions. However, patients who have soft tissue changes, such as tissue flaccidity, may not achieve an ideal result, and require complementary surgical techniques that promote aesthetic refinement. The literature on less invasive techniques is limited, and therefore, this work aims to report a surgical technique performed concomitantly with genioplasty to refine the harmony of the submandibular region, in a simple and effective way. Patient with skeletal class II deformity, with lack of mandibular definition and submandibular flaccidity, underwent bimaxillary advancement orthognathic surgery with advancement genioplasty to correct chin retrusion. Due to limited results with bone repositioning alone, plication of the suprahyoid musculature was performed in association with the same approach used in the genioplasty. As a result, there was traction in the cervical region, with a consequent decrease in the submental-cervical angle and improvement in submandibular aesthetics. Furthermore, there was no need for extensive surgical intervention and no impairment of the functional results of the orthognathic surgery itself. Therefore, it can be concluded that plication of the suprahyoid musculat ure concomitantly with genioplasty is a technique that promotes aesthetic gains in the cervical region.

          RESUMEN: Además de corregir funcionalmente las deformidades faciales esqueléticas, la cirugía ortognática también tiene un gran impacto en la estética y las proporciones faciales. Sin embargo, los pacientes que tienen cambios en los tejidos blandos, como la flacidez, pueden no lograr un resultado ideal y requieren técnicas quirúrgicas complementarias que promuevan el refinamiento estético. La literatura sobre técnicas menos invasivas es limitada, por lo que este trabajo tiene como objetivo reportar una técnica quirúrgica realizada concomitantemente con la genioplastia para refinar la armonía de la región submandibular, de manera simple y efectiva. Se trató a un paciente con deformidad esquelética clase II, con falta de definición mandibular y flacidez submandibular, intervenida de cirugía ortognática de avance bimaxilar con genioplastia de avance para corregir la retrusión del mentón. Debido a los resultados limitados solo con el reposicionamiento óseo, se realizó la plicatura de la musculatura suprahioidea en asociación con el mismo abordaje utilizado en la genioplastia. Como resultado, hubo tracción en la región cervical, con la consiguiente disminución del ángulo submentoniano-cervical y mejoría en la estética submandibular. Además, no hubo necesidad de una intervención quirúrgica extensa ni deterioro de los resultados funcionales de la cirugía ortognática en sí. Por lo tanto, se puede concluir que la plicatura de la musculatura suprahioidea concomitantemente con la genioplastia es una técnica que promueve ganancias estéticas en la región cervical.

          Submental-submandibular suction lipectomy: indications and surgical technique.

          The submental and submandibular regions play an essential role in the overall harmony of facial aesthetics. The appearance of the cervicomental area may be the result of many factors, including mandibular hypoplasia, localized lipodystrophy, a low-positioned hyoid bone, platysmal deformity, soft tissue laxity, or a combination of any of these. Although much attention has been directed toward correction of bony contour deformities of the mandible and chin, minimal emphasis has been placed on evaluation and correction of soft tissue disharmonies in the submental-submandibular areas. This article discusses the indications and contraindications, patient examination, surgical technique, and potential complications of suction-assisted lipectomy of the cervicomental region. Select cases are presented to illustrate the concepts and techniques discussed herein.

              The influence of orthognathic surgery on the perception of personality traits: A scoping review.

              The purpose of this scoping review was to determine the current state of evidence regarding the influence of orthognathic surgery on the perception of personality traits in dysmorphic patients by laypersons. The MEDLINE database was searched for relevant studies using the search strategy: ("Personality"[Mesh]) AND ("Orthognathic Surgery"[Mesh] OR "Orthognathic Surgical Procedures"[Mesh]). A qualitative and quantitative synthesis of the results was performed. Descriptive statistics were used. The PRISMA-ScR guidelines were followed. Five studies, published between 2012 and 2018, remained after screening. Seventy-two dysmorphic patients and 12 class I control individuals were rated based on a total of 296 pre- and postoperative photographs or videos. The available data showed concordant results. Dysgnathic patients were more negatively perceived than class I patients for both aesthetic and personality dimensions. Compared to control class I patients, class II patients were perceived as more flexible, less confident, and less intelligent, whereas class III patients were characterized by dominance, aggressivity, and brutality. Dysgnathic patients showed an improvement in the postoperative ratings but did not reach the ratings attributed to the control class I group in most traits evaluated. This added understanding should help surgeons to counsel their patients in a realistic and reasonable manner.
