Vol. 1 – Number 4 – 2020 Case report Page 22 Three-dimensional face restructuring – Case report Roberta Fontanari1 Rosana Francisco Rebellato2 Karina Freitas3 Fabricio Valarelli4 ABSTRACT Facial aging is a natural, dynamic and progressive process, which can be influenced by several intrinsic or extrinsic factors. It is known that it occurs in a three-dimensional way, that is, in all face planes. These alterations include changes in facial morphology caused by loss of bone quality, muscle, subcutaneous and dermal tissues, which leads to the appearance of several deformities. In this report, it is presented the case of a 47-year-old patient who complained of the “tired look”, loss of “cheekbone” volume, lack facial contours definition and dissatisfaction with lip filling previously performed by another professional. After correct diagnosis and planning, it was demonstrated with the results, that it is possible to meet patient’s expectation using minimally invasive procedures of Orofacial Harmonization to restructure the face, restoring youthfulness, attractiveness, self-esteem and restoring harmony and proper proportions. Descriptors: Facial restructuring, non-surgical lifting, facial rejuvenation, three-dimensional face reconstruction. 1 Esp. in Orthodontics – UNOPAR, Professor and Coordinator of Postgraduate courses in Orofacial Harmonization – UNINGÁ, Professor in the course of Facial Anatomy and Advanced Techniques of Orofacial Harmonization – MARC Institute Miami / FL. 2 Post-graduate student in Orofacial Harmonization, Esp. in Orthodontics – UNICSUL. 3 Ma.
