Lateral lumbar defects are rarely encountered and difficult to manage because of the limited reach of loco-regional flaps and the unfavorable position of recipient vessels for microsurgical transfer. The purpose of this report is to describ…

[INTRODUCTION] The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a better quality of life with one of the two techniques and if the results are in line with those already present in the literature. The hypothesis from which we started i…

[BACKGROUND] The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap represents a workhorse in reconstructive microsurgery but its use in a free style fashion as perforator-based flap has yet to be popularized. We describe our experience with lateral circumflex…

[BACKGROUND] The number of revision surgeries to improve breast asymmetry after deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction is still high worldwide with impact on both patients and healthcare systems. These procedu…

Ex-obese patients complain about abdomen and pubis deformities following massive weight loss, due to skin and soft tissue redundancy. Abdominoplasty is often the first corrective procedure performed, but residual mons pubis deformities may …

[INTRODUCTION] Breast remodeling following breast-conserving surgery (BCS) and radiation therapy (RT) is challenging and often burdened by complications due to irradiated tissue atrophy. The authors present a case-control study to compare t…

We live in a world where each of us is constantly surrounded by the influence of social networks that represent daily points of reference with which we interact. The perception of our body is determined by three main views: the view we ours…

Rhinoplasty is certainly the most creative and exciting intervention in the field of plastic surgery due to the possibility of associating the technical procedures with the inventiveness and artistic sense of the surgeon. In addition, the p…

Abdominal wall reconstruction represents a complex challenge for plastic surgeons, given the variable range of clinical situations requiring restoration of abdominal wall integrity. When significant myofascial defects are encountered, repai…

Morphing is one of the first digital effects developed by the film industry and consists of the fluid, gradual and seamless transformation between two images of different shapes, which can be objects, people, faces, landscapes. In plastic s…

[INTRODUCTION] In conducting this study, it was our presumption that lipofilling is a necessary and simultaneous adjunct to lifting the middle third of the face in patients with negative lower eyelid vectors, enabling satisfactory and endur…

Dysmorphophobia is the phobia that arises from the distorted view that one has of one's external appearance, caused by the excessive concern for one's body image, in most cases not justified. The role of the plastic surgeon is to recognize …

[BACKGROUND] The latissimus dorsi (LD) flap is reliable and versatile with many indications and low donor site morbidity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term effects of LD flap on the shoulder function in patients undergoing …

[INTRODUCTION] This randomized controlled study aimed to analyse the long-term results of thin-skinned patients who underwent rhinoplasty. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] All the included study patients had the following characteristics: underwent…

The authors of this article wish to make the following clarification: The FACE-Q is a trademarked patient reported outcome instrument. The "Satisfaction with Nose" scale described and reproduced in this article is similarly trademarked; the…

Botulinum neurotoxin-A and botulinum neurotoxin-B have been shown to play a potential role in improving flap survival in animal models. The aim of this study is to review indications as well as to study injection timing, technique, and dose…

[INTRODUCTION] This systematic review aims to examine surgical and non-surgical treatments and identify those procedures that are most effective in terms of patient satisfaction. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] A systematic review protocol was dev…

[BACKGROUND] Nonsurgical rhinoplasty with hyaluronic acid (HA) has gained popularity due to its efficacy and minimal downtime. From a structural standpoint, it is like performing a tridimensional reshaping where only enhancement by grafts i…
