Adjunctive procedures, including autologous fat grafting and surgical debulking, may be required to optimise facial contours following maxillomandibular reconstruction.

We use two case studies to illustrate the value of a combination of objective 3-dimenmsional (3D) measurements, clinical assessments, and patient-reported outcomes, using the FACE-Q questionnaire to elucidate the benefits of adjunctive procedures.
