The ageing face
نویسندگان
چکیده
As populations expand and life expectancy increases, growing numbers of people are seeking methods to counteract the ageing process. Over the past three decades, refinements in surgical techniques have enhanced our ability to manage the ageing face patient. The goal of ageing face surgery is to achieve a natural, rejuvenated, youthful appearance. Higher patient expectations and increasing demand for comprehensive rejuvenation have led to today’s multi-faceted approach to the ageing face. This chapter focuses on rhytidectomy, or facelift surgery, which is a central component in ageing face surgery. Other important considerations, such as laser skin resurfacing and blepharoplasty are covered in Chapter 58, Laser principles in Otolaryngology, head and neck surgery; and Chapter 221, Blepharoplasty.

We propose a method to age these face models using Partial Least Squares to extract from the data-set those factors most related to ageing. These ageing relat...
