Facial aging is the combination of multiple effects such as sun exposure, tobacco, environmental stress and smog, reflecting the cumulative and dynamic effects of time on the skin, soft tissues and the deep structural components of the face that show an important change structural features of the skin and loss of facial volume. There are many different techniques currently used to perform face lifting, the ultimate goal is to get good results with respect for patient safety. This article describes a new approach to facial rejuvenation combining superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) plication elements on four vectors, with a blepharoplasty to achieve a lasting improvement in facial aging. The plication of the SMAS on the suture provides three vectors of elevation under the skin in the middle rhytidectomy, linked to the Lorè fascia and to the third platys elevation vector behind the ear. The blepharoplasty technique is often unavoidable in the execution of the global facial rejuvenation. This allows obtaining excellent results both in terms of aesthetic and of a good patient empowerment. This new surgical technique, called “KORU technique”, was used on 31 patients between October 2010 and October 2012, producing lasting results, reducing injuries and respecting anatomical planes. This approach can be safely and easily performed under local anesthesia as an isolated midface procedure, respecting and safeguarding the facial nerve. This type of chiropractic technique can be used by young surgeons.
