The need for overcorrection: evaluation of computer-assisted, virtually planned, fronto-orbital advancement using postoperative 3D photography

CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative measurement of the applied FOA on 3D photographs is a feasible and objective method for assessment of surgical results. The delta between the FOA correction planned with CAD/CAM and the achieved correction can be analyzed on postoperative 3D photographs. In the future, calculation of the amount of "overcorrection" needed to avoid relapse of the affected side(s) after FOA may be possible with the aid of these techniques.PMID:33794499 | DOI:10.3171/2021.1.FOCUS201026
