[Peribuccal esthetic surgery].
This paper concerns the procedures of remodelling the peribuccal area for aesthetic purposes; these techniques may be planned in isolation or as a complement to a face-lift. In our hands these interventions are helpful firstly to correct and excessively deep nasolabial fold and sublabial crease using dermis or fascia grafts. Secondly, are designed to correct the contour of the upper lip either by smoothening the fine vertical folds, excising a fine strip of skin along the cupid's bow associated with dermabrasion or by diminishing the labial height resecting a buffalo-horn shaped cutaneous strip at the nasal vestibular sill and at the base of the columella. The philtrum is sculptured by dissecting the philtral columns. The medial philtral depression is maintained using translabial mattress sutures. Furthermore the upper and lower lips themselves are able to be augmented by means of dermal or fascia grafts or on the contrary thinned by resecting an appropriate horizontal strip of vermilion or mucous membrane, without any lesion of the orbicularis muscle. To eliminate the sadness of sagging buccal angles, we model the subcutaneous tissue of the labial commissure.
