Abstract

Perioral rejuvenation is a critical component in the comprehensive approach to the aging face. The perioral region—comprising the lips, philtrum, and areas surrounding the oral commissures—plays a significant role in an individual's perceived age, attractiveness, and emotional expressions. However, the perioral region is often the “forgotten area” and has the potential to undermine the success of otherwise outstanding rejuvenation surgeries. This article will shed light on 40 years of experience in perioral rejuvenation surgery, demonstrating techniques and methodologies that have consistently yielded long-term, reliable results in my practice.
