A subzygomatic arch depression creates a bulky face outline. To smoothen these depressions and correct facial contours, hyaluronic acid filler injection methods are frequently used. However, the complexity of the subzygomatic region make it difficult for practitioners to effectively volume the region. The conventional injection of single layer injection has limitations of lack in volume addition and unwanted undulations and spreading. The anatomical factors were reviewed with ultrasonography, three-dimensional photogrammetric analysis, and cadaver dissection. In this anatomical study, the present knowledge on localizing filler injection with a more precisely demarcated dual-plane injection was suggested. This study presents novel anatomical findings related to the injection of hyaluronic acid filler injection in the subzygomatic arch depression.
