The use of silicone implants to correct an acquired or congenital abnormality of the face involves the use of:--blocks of foam, though these retract and the volume implanted must therefore be overestimated.--compact blocks of elastomer, which tend to migrate and to produce inaesthetic bumps with disturbances in the vascularisation of the skin. The authors therefore had the idea of making "to measure" implants similar to breast implants: envelope of silicone elastomer enclosing a gel of chosen viscosity, absorbing forces applied to the envelope and therefore tending to prevent migration of the implant. The latter has dacron patches to facilitate its adherence to deep layers. This description of manufacturing methods and operative techniques, despite a short follow-up, reports encouraging results from which it is possible to determine the indications of this type of procedure.

Repair of loss of substance of the lower lip has been the object of numerous studies. Each author has used his own ingenuity to describe a new type of flap aimed at restoring a particular form of loss of substance. The techniques suggested here are capable of solving a majority of problems on the basis of simple and original solutions. These flaps make it possible to resolve the problems posed by most cases of loss of substance of the lower lip. The choice of these plastic procedures permits restoration which is at one and the same time functional and anesthetic.
