				        	Objective:To explore the technique procedure for comprehensive facial rhytidectomy, and to evaluate the surgical outcome.Methods:A total of 126 patient received comprehensive facial rhytidectomy were involved in this study and the outcomes were evaluated by using 14 FACE-Q scales.Results:Totally 44 patients completed the FACE-Q scales, with the follow-up of 6 to 86 months, with an average of 27.9 months. The overall satisfaction was 87.30±10.79 (mean±standard deviation), satisfaction with forehead and brow was 92.16±10.12, satisfaction with cheekbones was 93.30±6.95, satisfaction with cheek was 91.20±10.17, and satisfaction with neck was 87.16±9.65; appraisal of overall lines was 87.57±9.71, appraisal of forehead lines was 91.80±10.23, appraisal of glabella lines was 90.43±10.76, appraisal of nasolabial fold was 88.25±12.10, and appraisal of crow's feet was 91.52±13.66; social function scores were 88.70±9.40, psychological function scores 88.77±10.49, surgical decision satisfaction scores 90.86±9.06, and surgical outcome satisfaction scores 90.03±10.61. Self-evaluation was 8.33±3.15 years younger. There was no statistically significant difference in the scale results between the age groups of <40 years, 40-50 years, and >50 years.Conclusions:Comprehensive facial rhytidectomy is a systematic and thorough surgical solution for rejuvenation. This procedure is proved to be of high satisfactory degree in short and long-term follow-up by FACE-Q scales.
