The Surface-Volume Coefficient of the Superficial and Deep Facial Fat Compartments: A Cadaveric Three-Dimensional Volumetric Analysis

Abstract

These results, confirmatory in their nature to current injection strategies, provide evidence for the validity and reliability of the surface-volume coefficient. Injection procedures should be targeted in terms of facial fat compartments and fascial planes for a desired aesthetic outcome, as each fat compartment and fascial plane has unique tissue responses to injected soft-tissue fillers.
