Global Standard in Facial Contouring: Introduction to the ‘Infracture Technique’ for Reduction Malarplasty(Cheekbone Reduction)

Details of Infracture Technique for Cheekbone Reduction

Hello, today I would like to introduce a world-renowned surgical method in the field of zygoma (cheekbone) reduction.

Published in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Journal

This technique, titled “Infracture Technique for Reduction Malarplasty,” was published in 2004 in the “Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (PRS)”, the most prestigious and authoritative academic journal in the global plastic surgery community.

 

 

🔬 What is the ‘Infracture Technique’?

This innovative method was first devised and developed by Dr. DB Yang in Korea. I had the privilege of co-authoring the original paper with him, where I contributed to refining and establishing the precise surgical protocols used today.

Unlike traditional methods that simply shave down the bone, the Infracture method focuses on strategically repositioning the cheekbone inward to create a more slender and balanced facial profile while maintaining structural integrity.

 

📸 Step-by-Step Surgical Process

To help you better understand the procedure, here is a brief overview based on the captured images from our clinical guide:

1. Precision Osteotomy: A systematic incision is made at both the anterior (front) and posterior (back) sections of the malar bone.
2. Inward Infracture: The osteotomized zygomatic arch is gently moved inward to effectively reduce the overall width of the face.
3. Stable Fixation: The bone is securely fixed in its new, optimal position to ensure proper bone union and long-term stability.
4. Soft Tissue Management: We meticulously manage the surrounding tissues to minimize postoperative sagging (ptosis) and ensure a natural lifting effect.

 

💡 Key Advantages of This Technique

• Natural Contours: Achieves a smooth, seamless facial line without unnatural indentations.
• Minimized Sagging: By preserving the connection of the soft tissues and avoiding excessive bone removal, we significantly reduce the risk of cheek drooping.
• Proven Safety: This is a gold-standard technique verified by one of the world’s leading medical journals.

“The precision of the technique determines the excellence of the result.” > Experience a safe and definitive transformation through a method proven by global academic standards.
