Malar Projection (Cheekbones)

Malar projection aims to enhance the contour and support of the cheekbone area as part of a comprehensive facial evaluation. The plan is defined according to anatomy, aesthetic and functional goals, and the case diagnosis.

Below is a CT scan from a patient who underwent orthognathic surgery, including bone cuts (osteotomies) in the malar (cheekbone) region to widen and project the cheekbones.
