A step-by-step optimized method of interfascial dissection to avoid three main esthetic complications of the pterional approach-upper facial nerve palsy, temporal muscle atrophy, and retro-orbital depression. A video of the interfascial dissection and three artistic drawings are provided in support of this technique.
