Personal Evolution in Thighplasty Techniques for Patients Following Massive Weight Loss.
[BACKGROUND] Lockwood described the importance of Colles' fascia anchoring in medial thighplasty to reduce morbidity associated with the procedure. However, this maneuver may still have complications including traumatic dissection, prolonge…

Ear Lobule Rejuvenation in Face-Lifting: The Role of Fat Augmentation.
[BACKGROUND] Ear lobule ptosis and deflation are characteristics of facial aging. A rhytidectomy without rejuvenation of a deflated ear lobule may fail to address all aspects of facial aging. Fillers have been used to treat ear lobule defla…

Nipple-Sparing Mastectomy via an Inframammary Fold Incision with Implant-Based Reconstruction in Patients with Prior Cosmetic Breast Surgery.
[BACKGROUND] Nipple-sparing mastectomy through an inframammary fold incision (NSM-IMF) with implant-based reconstruction (IBR) is a cosmetically preferable approach to breast cancer treatment in appropriate candidates. However, patients who…

Surgical treatment of nipple malposition in nipple-sparing mastectomy device-based reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] This article discusses the senior author's (M.T.) experience with nipple-areola complex malposition following nipple-sparing mastectomy, surgical options for treatment, and an analysis of risk factors. [METHODS] A retrospectiv…

Evidence-based medicine in aesthetic medicine and surgery: reality or fantasy?
[UNLABELLED] The goal of evidence-based medicine (EBM) is for health-care professionals to incorporate existing medical evidence into clinical practice to achieve the greatest possible outcomes. The theory of EBM has been employed since the…

Defining pseudoptosis (bottoming out) 3 years after short-scar medial pedicle breast reduction.
[BACKGROUND] Pseudoptosis (bottoming out) is a well-observed phenomenon occurring after all types of breast reduction surgery. The authors' team previously reported the use of three-dimensional (3D) imaging to demonstrate that significant m…

Defining the kinetics of breast pseudoptosis after reduction mammaplasty.
Despite the clinical relevance of bottoming out, or pseudoptosis, associated with reduction mammaplasty (RM) its evaluation remains an imprecise science. This study aims to further define the kinetics of postoperative pseudoptosis over an e…

An innovative three-dimensional approach to defining the anatomical changes occurring after short scar-medial pedicle reduction mammaplasty.
[BACKGROUND] Three-dimensional photography of the breast offers new opportunities to advance the fields of aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery. The following study investigates the use of three-dimensional imaging to assess changes …

Three-dimensional imaging provides valuable clinical data to aid in unilateral tissue expander-implant breast reconstruction.
The current approach to breast reconstruction remains largely subjective and is based on physical examination and visual-estimates of breast size. Thus, the overall success of breast reconstruction is limited by the inability of plastic sur…

Virtual 3-dimensional modeling as a valuable adjunct to aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery.
Three-dimensional (3D) imaging technology currently is used by various commercial industries as a method for analyzing objects and shapes. Recent work from our group and others offer data to support the use of 3D imaging as a valuable tool …
