[BACKGROUND] Fat grafting remains unpredictable in the clinical setting, and variables that influence adipocyte survival, such as age, body mass index, and specific donor sites, are still not well understood. [METHODS] Twenty-four female s…

[BACKGROUND] For patients considering breast augmentation, 3-dimensional (3D) imaging provides a preoperative simulation of the postoperative result. However, the clinical accuracy of these simulations has not been assessed. [OBJECTIVE] Th…

Dorsal hump reduction can lead to significant aesthetic and functional deformities with distortion of the dorsal aesthetic lines without first preserving and subsequently restoring proper position of the upper lateral cartilages. The senior…

[BACKGROUND] Dorsal hump reduction can lead to significant aesthetic and functional deformities if one does not preserve and subsequently restore proper position of the upper lateral cartilages. The senior author (R.J.R.) previously describ…

[BACKGROUND] Although much has been published with regard to the columella assessed on the frontal and lateral views, a paucity of literature exists regarding the basal view of the columella. The objective of this study was to evaluate the …

[BACKGROUND] With the advent of skin-sparing mastectomy techniques, it became clear that immediate placement of an implant could be utilized for breast reconstruction in select patients. The authors assessed the safety, patient selection fa…

[BACKGROUND] Acellular dermal matrix is frequently used in implant-based breast reconstruction to cover the inferior aspect of the breast pocket. Its performance profile remains equivocal. The authors studied whether adding it in implant-ba…

Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a serious, potentially life-threatening condition resulting from an overwhelming immunological response to an exotoxin released by Staphylococcus aureus. TSS has rarely been described as a complication after el…
