Perforator flaps improved the reconstruction paradigm in the lower extremity, increasing coverage possibilities. This study aims to quantify how added perforators could enhance standard geometrical patterns (compared to random flaps). A to…

[BACKGROUND] Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare vascular anomalies associated with considerable morbidity and high recurrence rates. Their management remains challenging, with no universally accepted protocol. This study presents a…

[BACKGROUND] Advancements in oncology have significantly improved survival rates, shifting the focus toward enhancing the quality of life (QoL) of cancer survivors. Aesthetic medicine, encompassing procedures such as botulinum toxin injecti…

[BACKGROUND] Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) has become an established treatment for upper facial rejuvenation; however, its use in the lower face and neck is less explored and presents anatomical challenges. This study evaluates the long-t…

[INTRODUCTION] Face and neck lifting is the cornerstone in the treatment of the lower third of the face and the neck but, as classically described, it has not a significant impact on the middle third, and fails to rejuvenate the upper third…

In response to Verma et al. we acknowledge the limitations of our study, including the absence of a control group and the modest sample size, both influenced by ethical and logistical constraints. Despite these factors, improvements in FSFI…

[INTRODUCTION] The Ribeiro flap was originally described to increase breast projection during breast surgery. The aim of the study was to evaluate the changes in breasts of patients with gigantomastia undergoing reduction mammaplasty with a…

[INTRODUCTION] Ptosis is a common complication after reduction mammoplasty, but its main influencing factors remain unclear. We aimed to evaluate the roles of age, smoking, pregnancies, hypertension, diabetes, preoperative glandular composi…

Angiosarcoma of the breast is a rare but aggressive disease that often requires wide-margin resection resulting in massive thoracic defects. In this report we present the unique case of a patient who underwent primary chest wall reconstruct…

[BACKGROUND] Reconstruction of the dorsum in revision rhinoplasty remains a challenge, requiring the balance of volume, proportion, and long-term stability. Traditional approaches-solid rib grafts or diced cartilage in fascia (DCF)-present …

[BACKGROUND] Rhinoplasty is one of the most commonly performed facial plastic surgeries worldwide. Despite its frequency, there is significant heterogeneity in perioperative management, particularly regarding the choice of anesthesia-local,…

Reconstructing the dorsum in revision rhinoplasty remains a complex challenge. Traditional methods such as solid rib grafts and diced cartilage fascia (DCF) grafts present significant limitations, including warping, displacement, and insuff…

[INTRODUCTION] Soft-tissue sarcomas arising in the thigh may require total or subtotal compartmentectomy, with subsequent need for functional reconstruction with free functional muscle transfer (FFMT). We present our series, describing a ne…

Reconstruction of complex Achilles tendon defects involving both the tendon and the overlying soft tissues represents a challenging scenario for plastic surgeons. In this report, we present an innovative technique of hybrid total Achilles t…

[INTRODUCTION] Mild-to-moderate blepharoptosis can be aesthetically displeasing for patients, particularly in cases involving a single eyelid. However, certain patients are reluctant to undergo surgical intervention. Botulinum neurotoxin A …

[BACKGROUND] Over time, all the face structures inevitably undergo the effects of chrono-aging with changes in their intrinsic characteristics, position and volume. Keeping in mind that all the possible aging defects may be concomitant, in …

[INTRODUCTION] Striae distensae (SD) appear clinically as parallel striae, lying perpendicular to the tension lines of the skin. SD evolve into two clinical phases, an initial inflammatory phase in which they are called "striae rubrae" (SR)…

[INTRODUCTION] Renuvion was the first FDA approved helium plasma device utilized for subdermal tissue heating to reduce skin laxity. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that the use of Renuvion improves the outcomes, skin quality a…

[INTRODUCTION] Post-gravidic diastasis recti is corrected with conventional abdominoplasty in patients with adequate skin laxity. For unsuitable patients, other procedures are considered. [METHODS] A retrospective review was conducted on p…

[BACKGROUND] Very little is known of how urinary symptoms and low back pain related to rectus abdominis diastasis tend to change after reparative surgery. [OBJECTIVES] In this study we aimed to investigate these symptom changes in women wh…

[BACKGROUND] Diastasis recti abdominis (DRA) is a condition commonly affecting women postpartum, often leading to functional impairments, negative body image, and reduced quality of life. While abdominoplasty with DRA correction is known to…

[INTRODUCTION] Pedicled perforator flaps can be used not only in reconstructive scenarios but also for aesthetic purposes, thereby enhancing both the aesthetics and functionality of the treated area. The authors present two representative c…

: The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is the gold standard for autologous breast reconstruction, but donor site morbidity, such as abdominal bulging, remains a concern. Rectus fascia plication is a recognized treatment for r…

[BACKGROUND] Inverted-T scar reduction mammaplasty is still the most chosen technique for breast reduction even if scars are relevant. Sometimes, surgical scars may be esthetically unpleasant and may cause severe pain, tenderness, sleep dis…

[BACKGROUND] Several techniques have been developed to address cases of macromastia. The primary objective remains achieving optimal aesthetic outcomes and reducing breast volume, but concerns persist regarding the stability of results over…

[BACKGROUND] Lower eyelid displacement is probably the most feared complication following lower blepharoplasty.In order to properly plan revision surgery, it is crucial to understand which lamella is involved in the retraction, since differ…

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into rhinoplasty has transformed preoperative planning and patient communication by providing highly accurate simulations of postoperative outcomes. AI-driven models, including deep learning a…

Plastic surgeons and aesthetic medicine professionals often share "before" and "after" clinical cases on social media, but this practice can lead to unintended consequences, such as dysmorphophobia and unrealistic expectations. These before…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a promising tool in the field of plastic surgery, offering a wide array of applications that enhance surgical outcomes, patient satisfaction, and overall efficiency. This paper explores the utiliz…
