title: Facelift adjunctive techniques: skin resurfacing and volumetric contouring.
abstract: Optimizing outcomes for rhytidectomy patients involves careful evaluation for conditions likely to benefit from adjunctive facial contouring and/or skin resurfacing procedures. On an individual basis, concurrent procedures should be performed only if benefits far outweigh any added risk and patient safety is not compromised. In this manner, physicians may improve practice productivity and overall patient satisfaction.
