What is medical profiloplasty?

Medical profiloplasty is an aesthetic medicine technique aimed at enhancing and harmonizing the profile of the face.
Since the rise of social media and selfies, the beautiPHIcation of the profile has become a growing demand. Depending on the patient's gender, the profile will also be either masculinized or feminized.

Profile analysis

A harmonious profile has the following characteristics :

  • It is pleasant to look at.
  • Masculine or feminine traits are well defined.
  • Its components respect the divine proportion of the golden ratio (BeautiPHIcation).
  • The interplay of light and shadow / convexity and concavity makes it attractive (7/9 points shape technique).

Forehead

The forehead is rounded in women and straight in men. Hollow areas will be treated, and bumps camouflaged. The height and projection of the eyebrows are calculated and adjusted according to gender.

Nose : medical rhinoplasty

Seen in profile, the nose forms a convex curve in men and a concave curve in women. In most cases, it is possible to create this curve and correct bumps and hollows.

Chin : medical genioplasty

We project the chin appropriately : its projection is calculated in relation to the nose and lips. We sculpt the most suitable shape according to gender and facial morphology : a rounded or rounded-square chin is sought in women, a square chin in men.

Lips

Lips are full and well defined in women. In men, their volume depends on facial morphology and the patient’s preferences. The upper lip is one third the height of the lower lip and projects slightly beyond it. The white lip is concave, and the red lip is convex.

Cheekbones

The cheekbone is the main feature of the female face. In women, it is high and centered over the zygomatic bone, forming a soft curve from the ear to the nose. In men, the cheekbone is flat and rectangular.

Jawline

The jawline should be well defined – it is the most important element of the male face. The lower third of the face is wider in men and narrower in women. The mandibular angle is projected and square in men, rounded and softer in women.

How long do the results of a medical profiloplasty last ?

The results of a medical profiloplasty (performed with hyaluronic acid injections) typically last between 12 and 18 months, depending on the patient’s metabolism, the treated area, and the type of product used. Maintenance sessions are recommended to preserve results and maintain facial profile harmony

Medical profiloplasty is generally well tolerated and minimally painful. A numbing cream can be applied beforehand, and most injectable products contain lidocaine (a local anesthetic), making the procedure more comfortable.

Medical profiloplasty is a non-invasive technique using hyaluronic acid injections to reshape the profile, correct minor imperfections, and harmonize facial features. It offers immediate, reversible results with no recovery time. Surgical profiloplasty, on the other hand, is a more invasive procedure intended for permanent corrections. It requires anesthesia, has a longer recovery period, and carries surgical risks.

To ensure safe and natural results, it is essential to choose an experienced and certified physician who specializes in aesthetic medicine and facial anatomy.
