Office‐based procedures can be a fulfilling part of the facial plastic practice with the right tools, personnel, and preparation. Equipping the clinic for office‐based procedures has several unique considerations that ultimately impact its success. It is important to strategize preemptively regarding what treatments will be offered and the respective equipment that will allow the safe, cost‐effective, and high‐quality delivery of those treatments. Most procedures in the office‐based setting are cosmetic in nature and there are often overlapping treatment modalities that target similar outcomes. Patient selection and counseling is a crucial step in preparing for office‐based procedures in the effort to maximize patient satisfaction. Nearly all the most common facial plastic procedures can be delivered in the office‐based based setting under local anesthesia and moderate sedation, depending on the expertise of the surgeon. To enable these and other categories of treatments, there are certain expensive pieces of technology that one might consider for their office‐based practice and other fundamental supplies that are necessary for almost all practices. Though the initial investment in equipment can be costly, this article also discusses more affordable alternatives or third‐party sales of devices and equipment. The field of facial plastic surgery is very dynamic and having both peer and mentorship networks is invaluable in navigating some of the financial decisions discussed herein. This article also briefly covers personnel, training, and accreditation considerations.

“…The corrugator supercilii muscle produces the vertical glabella lines, whilst the procerus muscle produces the horizontal glabella lines. The medial part of the orbicularis oculi provides some of the glabellar lines while the lateral part produces the crow's feet (8) . The forehead region contains many neurovascular systems that supplie the skin and soft tissue to this region.…”

The study of nerves and arteries of upper face for avoiding injury during the forehead lift procedure was conducted to investigate the anatomical landmark and histological plane of the nerve and artery of the upper face for reduce some injuries during a consequence of forehead lift procedure. Thirty adult soft embalmed cadaveric head were dissected. The distances between the frontal branches of the facial nerve and the mid-point of zygomatic arch, lateral canthus and lateral brow were 10.52?2.41, 39.82?7.09 and 24.10?8.92 mm, respectively. The distances between the superficial temporal artery the mid-point of zygomatic arch, lateral canthus and lateral brow were 61.72?14.09, 65.79?5.99 and 60.45?3.64 mm, respectively. For the supratrochlear and supraorbital nerve and artery, measured the distance from the nerves and arteries pierced through the frontalis muscle. The distances between the point that supratrochlear nerve and artery pierced through the muscle and the midline and orbital rim were 20.20?5.04, 22.93?5.28, 13.64?2.2 and 18.24?6.55 mm, respectively. The point that supraorbital nerve and artery pierced through the muscle locate from the midline and the orbital rim about 38.22?8.92, 27.07?7.35, 37.55?9.76 and 26.14?8.78 mm, respectively. Precise information of this study can help to reduce for reduce some injuries during the consequence of forehead lift procedure.
