Internal nasal dilators significantly improve nostril symmetry and functional outcomes after septorhinoplasty without added discomfort or complications, supporting their adjunctive use for enhanced postoperative patient satisfaction.
This study compares autoaugmentation and implant-based mastopexy in women after massive weight loss, highlighting superior satisfaction, aesthetic outcomes, and fewer complications with autoaugmentation when sufficient breast tissue is avai
Preoperative use of serotonergic antidepressants is linked to increased short-term postoperative complications after rhinoplasty, including higher rates of bleeding, readmission, and opioid use, without affecting long-term revision rates.
This review synthesizes evidence on how the timing of hard palate closure affects maxillary growth in patients with cleft lip, alveolus, and palate, highlighting comparable outcomes after early and delayed closure and evaluating the influen
This article examines the anatomical depth of carotid arteries in the neck to guide safe hemostatic net placement during facelift surgery, minimizing risk of vascular injury.
A comprehensive analysis of 1,191 dorsal preservation rhinoplasties reveals the evolution, classification, and optimized outcomes of this surgical technique, highlighting a refined framework that enhances patient selection and reduces revis
A novel nipple-areola reconstruction technique using nipple punch grafts with 3D areola tattooing (NPAT) demonstrates improved aesthetics and fewer complications compared to traditional free nipple-areola grafting in gender-affirming mastec
The GAPS protocol significantly reduced surgical-site infections in implant-based breast reconstruction over five years, suggesting structured perioperative infection control enhances patient outcomes and healthcare efficiency.
Recent research demonstrates that machine learning algorithms can accurately predict patient-reported outcomes one year after breast reconstruction, potentially enhancing shared decision-making and individualized care planning.
This article addresses common patient misconceptions about hyaluronic acid fillers, elucidating safety, efficacy, and best practice strategies to ensure natural results and improved patient trust.
This study compares triple nerve transfer alone versus combined with fascia lata suspension, finding that fascia lata suspension significantly improves facial function, symmetry, and psychosocial outcomes in patients with severe soft tissue
