Who needs a midface lift?
Midface cheek lift is not just needed by older people as earlier thought. The earlier concept was that surgical cheek lift should be done in older population and for younger people the best way to proceed is by dermal fillers and thread lift.
The current research suggest that filler have their own problems of not dissolving completely and also its compounded with the tendency of dermal fillers to migrate and eventually giving more heavy lower face as well as deep naso labial fold or deeper smile lines, giving lose heavy cheeks. threads also does not give long term cheek lifts as well as excessive thread lift from young age can actually lead to distortion of sub dermal tissues, eventually making a proper surgical lift extremely difficult and risky to perform.
The advances in surgical techniques, surgical understanding of modern surgeons, have actually made surgical midface and cheek lift a lot more predictable and safer.
The Dr Rahul Gogoi has worked for past 8 years in understanding the age changes , the structural differences in younger people who have heavy lose cheeks. He has developed 2 surgical techniques for midface cheek lift with both having different indications as per the requirement and age of every individual. These two surgical techniques have also been sent to scientific journals for expert peer review so they are available to surgeons across the world who would want to learn the surgical techniques.

APPLE LIFT
(Sub Periosteal Midface Lift)
Sub periosteal Vertical mid cheek lift - Also known as APPLE LIFT by Dr Rahul Gogoi. This technique was developed by Dr Rahul Gogoi and his team at RGIMS clinic, India, specifically for hollow lower eyelid with low cheek prominence often giving a hollow sagging cheeks appearance.
The Main candidates for this particular midface cheek lift are
1. Hollow under eyes often accompanied with under eye dark circles. The traditional management of these types of problem is to inject dermal fillers. But it often gives puffy filled look. Apple lift midface surgery technique gives a more natural looking fuller under eyes and also gets rid of the the pigmented stubborn dark circles
2. Older people with excessive lose skin, lower eyelid fat bags along with excessive lower eyelid skin wrinkles. These types of problems cannot be truly managed by non surgical techniques. Fillers in these types of problems can lead to extremely puffy filled up face and cheeks, nowadays often known as Pillow faces. the excessive lose skin further compound the problem. A standard skin excision lower blepharoplasty may work in certain cases, but in people having malaria festoons, the regular skin excision lower eyelid surgery does not yield satisfactory results, with people often complaining of puffiness on the lower corner of the lower eyelids, even though the eyebags are gone. Here our Sub periosteal Vertical Mid cheek lift is among the best treatment for under eye puffy eyes with excessive lose skin. The surgical technique has been published in top international Aesthetic plastic surgery journals, with Dr Rahul Gogoi also presenting in aesthetic surgery conferences as an invited lecture. Here the unique part of this surgical technique is that, the deep medial cheek fat which often goes down with age, or is placed low genetically is pulled superiorly and suspended near the lower eyelids giving a natural fuller and lifted cheek appearance. The additional advantage is the overlapping of the inferior lower eyelid muscle over the palpebral part of the lower eyelids. this particular region of the eyelid is where majority of surgeons all around the world struggle. The midface lift surgical technique innovated by Dr Rahul Gogoi and his surgical team at RGIMS have finally found a solution backed with long term results. some of the results you can see in our website. the before after picture of midface lift comprise of both young as well as older individuals. Right from hollow underlies to sagging cheeks and going all the way with older people with lower eyelid eyebags with excessive lose skin.
