Procedimentos para rejuvenescimento facial e monitoramento de seus efeitos com fotogrametria: relato de caso

Abstract

Introduction: orofacial harmonisation treatment involves procedures that aim to address the individual's main aesthetic and functional complaints. Procedures such as botulinum toxin, collagen biostimulator and hyaluronic acid filler are the most sought-after in clinical practice for morphological modifications and management of facial ageing and require the cautious use of these materials that cause subtle changes in the face of individuals. Therefore, it is important that the professional uses recording and monitoring tools, such as standardised photographs or facial scans. Stereophotogrammetry is a method that uses three-dimensional (3D) facial imaging systems for treatment planning and monitoring, enabling the visualisation and quantification of the results achieved. Methodology: this study describes a clinical case of orofacial harmonisation, with the application of collagen biostimulator, botulinum toxin, lip filler and periorbital region, using stereophotogrammetry to record the subtle facial changes and evaluate the effect of each of them. Result: it was possible to observe a significant improvement in the patient's facial appearance, with posterior and superior tissue movement. Conclusion: the clinical case demonstrated that knowledge of facial anatomy, the use of planned injection techniques and specific products for each facial region are essential to achieve the predetermined objectives. Monitoring each facial and tissue change with stereophotogrammetry offers the possibility of carefully monitoring each change obtained, in addition to bringing the patient and professional closer together, getting more assertiveness in clinical follow-up, monitoring of facial rejuvenation procedures and verification of the results achieved.
