Chiara Andretto Amodeo, MD, PhD - Midface Deep Fascia: New Anatomical and Surgical Insights
For many years, surgeons and anatomists believed that the lower part of the face lacked a distinct deep fascial layer beneath the superficial tissues of the cheek. In this webinar, Italian plastic surgeon Dr Andretto Amodeo will present groundbreaking work from a 15-year research project that challenges this traditional understanding. Through detailed anatomical dissection, surgical observation, and histological analysis, Dr Amodeo and her team identified a previously unrecognised deep fascial plane in the infraorbital region, which they named “Chiara’s fascia.” The webinar will explore the anatomy of this newly described fascial layer, explain how it was identified, and discuss its relevance in surgical procedures and patient care.
