Fascia in aesthetics: what it is & why it matters (ultrasound findings-based study)
Objectives: -Fascia ( SMAS & temproparietal) was thought to be passive, like a rubber band, elongating when we stretch, then returning to its original length. 2004 iwas the first evidence that fascia, is a living,
-How can one diagnose a fascia problem caused by incompatible Fillers ?
-role of dynamic fillers in this area
- the benefits for patients
Introduction: fascia forms a 3D, full-length bodystocking that keeps everything separate and at the same time connected.
Fascia assists in organizing and coordinating our every movement. It helps keep us flexible and supple.
Problems can occur when our bodystocking begins to get stuck.
accumulation of fascial restrictions serves to functionally shorten some muscles, while letting others lengthen, becoming overly stretched or loose. Over time this can visibly distort posture and make even simple movements difficult or painful.
Fortunately, fascia is a two-way street. What is restricted can
become smooth agai
Materials / method: Fascia does not show up on standard imaging tests like X-Rays or MRIs, but it can be seen nicely on ultrasound. Since ultrasound imaging is performed in real-time, one can easily see the layers sliding on each other as well as restrictions in fascial movement.
Ultrasound shows abnormal Masseter contractions and dense fascia due to incompatible fillers with strong muscles contractions and continuous movements
Choosing low G- prime H.A fillers is the key to avoid this type of complications
Dynamic fillers of low G-prime work well with area of injection with these physical & physiological proper
Results: Dynamic fillers on ultrasound don’t tend to form the usual oval shape of fillers usually seen on ultrasound beneath the fascia,
patients report positive outcomes:
significant reductions in depression;
significant improvement in mood, fatigue, sleep and well-being;
a more proactive role in overall health.
Conclusion: We should not forget that we are doctors at the first place, we give our patients younger look beautiful faces and also quality of life
To Respect and understand the anatomy is a must to avoid a type of complications that affects the patients quality normal usual activity, sleep and life
