FIGURE 2.
A 25-year-old Japanese female; marked improvements in skin texture and clarity were observed in 2D color digital photographs relative to pretreatment (A, B). Tightening effects on the lower half of the face and perioral area were observed during 3D volumetric assessment (C). Each point of the skin surface at the forehead, periorbital areas, and medial sides of the cheek was 3D displaced in a centripetal direction (D). The vectors in the perioral area indicate downward. The varying degrees of 3D movement of the skin are shown in colors blue (0.7mm) to red (9.3mm). Green vectors indicate areas that were 3D displaced from 1.7 to 3.9mm.
