A midface lift repositions descended malar/SOOF tissue — the volume that slid onto the nasolabial fold and unmasked a tear trough.[1] Approaches: endoscopic, transblepharoplasty, or as part of a deep plane facelift. Distinct from cheek filler (volume) and from LeFort (bone).

The surgical match for a descended cheek on a nasolabial crease. Cogs are the limited-duration hitch; filler in the crease is camouflage. See nasolabial fold.
