The most important factor in the beauty of the face is the harmony of the facial skeleton and soft tissue. The postoperative result is not always satisfying after only classic soft tissue surgery. The reason for dissatisfaction is disharmony of the facial skeleton. Recently, the development of maxillofacial surgical techniques enable disharmony of the facial skeleton to be successfully corrected. The authors have had experience with 33 cases of congenital and acquired facial deformities, from March of 1986 to February of 1989, and have followed them from 6 months to 2 years. We used an intraoral approach in most cases and got good results. There were four wound disruptions which were treated conservatively and resolved without sequelae.
