[BACKGROUND] Aging-related changes of the mandibular margin are common, and with increasing aesthetic awareness, the demand for non-surgical jawline rejuvenation is growing. [OBJECTIVES] To compare the efficacy and safety of a facial biome…

[BACKGROUND] The management of extensive volar soft tissue defects in multiple fingers remains challenging for plastic surgeons. To date, although various types of flaps have been developed as reconstruction options, the applications remain…

[BACKGROUND] The management of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) remains challenging, with its underlying pathological mechanisms requiring further investigation. This study aimed to explore the effects of Botulinum Toxin A (Botox A) on the…

[BACKGROUND] Hyamax® Monophasic Volumizer Dermal Fillers is a newly designed hyaluronic acid soft tissue filler for chin augmentation. [METHODS] A prospective, single-center, evaluator-blinded, randomized controlled study was designed to e…

Due to the prevalence of anterior maxilla dysplasia in Asian population, paranasal concavity is a common accompaniment to low nose, but its impact on facial harmonization is often underestimated. A retrospective comparative study was conduc…

[BACKGROUND] An improperly established tip graft can lead to a narrow tip over time. To further refine the nasal tip and reduce the possibility of a narrow pointy tip, a shield graft and a tip onlay graft made from rib cartilage were fixate…

[BACKGROUND] The application of end-to-side (ETS) anastomosis for flap transfer poses challenges, particularly in cases of significant size discrepancy between the donor and flap arteries. Herein, a novel ETS anastomosis technique, termed "…

[PURPOSE] This study evaluated the methods and clinical effects of multidisciplinary collaborative treatment for occlusal reconstruction in patients with old jaw fractures and dentition defects. [METHODS] Patients with old jaw fractures an…

[PURPOSE] This study aims to aggregate and analyze existing clinical evidence to compare the efficacy and adverse effects of unilateral or bilateral botulinum toxin injections for the treatment of adductor spasmodic dysphonia (ADSD). [METH…

[BACKGROUND] In East Asian individuals, the nasal bone already has sufficient height for an ideal dorsal profile, but the tip requires enhancement for a desired projection. Consequently, the gap between the intrinsic bony structure and the …

[INTRODUCTION] Rhinoplasty for caudal septal cartilage defects is a challenge due to the difficulty of fixation of the grafts. [OBJECTIVES] This study presents an approach for correcting defects in caudal septal cartilage with the costal c…

[BACKGROUND] An enduringly stable tip graft is the key to achieve successful rhinoplasty cases. However, the intrinsic nature of rib graft warping renders major unpredictability for the long-term outcome. The objective of this study was to …

The use of autologous costal cartilage in augmentation rhinoplasty is well-established. However, scenarios where costal cartilage is insufficient or patients are unwilling to undergo additional cartilage harvesting present a challenge. This…

[BACKGROUND] Nutcracker syndrome (NCS) is a rare cause of varicocele and its treatment is still controversial. [OBJECTIVE] To summarize the surgical strategy and outcomes of microvascular Doppler (MVD)-assisted microsurgical left spermatic…

[BACKGROUND] Preventing benign strictures following esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) remains difficult, and finding a safe, effective, and simple management method is vital. We previously reported that rosuvastatin signific…

[BACKGROUND] An enduringly stable tip graft is the key to achieving successful rhinoplasty. However, the intrinsic tendency of rib grafts to warp renders the long-term outcome of cartilage-based rhinoplasty highly unpredictable. [OBJECTIVE…

[BACKGROUND] The costal cartilage is widely used in rhinoplasty. Although different surgical methods of costal cartilage harvest have been developed, few studies have reported the method of costal cartilage harvest for patients after breast…

[BACKGROUND] It is undeniable that costal cartilage is an excellent source of grafts, however it has some potential disadvantages, including a tendency to warp. There are very few studies that have examined how to resolve preexisting cartil…

[BACKGROUND] Secondary deformities of the cleft lip and nose are mainly caused by the long period of craniofacial development and the secondary scarring. Correction of the secondary cleft lip-nose deformity is a complex process that require…

[BACKGROUND] Extended Spreader Grafts (ESGs) are widely used for both esthetic and functional purpose in rhinoplasty. This study aims to examine the effects of drilling on ESGs in rhinoplasty and their clinical benefits, as well as to analy…

[BACKGROUND] A variety of techniques for alar base modification have been described in the literature. Limitations of these techniques include scars, recurrence, asymmetry, etc. An incorrect excision of the lateral alar wall can result in a…

Anastomosis of the microvessels requires high-level skills and extensive basic training. This study was performed to introduce and evaluate an inexpensive laboratory device as a training aid. Micro-tubes of 0.8 mm inner diameter and 0.5/0.8…

[PURPOSE] Radical surgery is the most effective treatment for Hirschsprung's disease. However, some children still have symptoms of intestinal dysfunction such as constipation, abdominal distension, and recurrent enterocolitis after operati…

[BACKGROUND] The angulation of nasal bones and superior border of septal cartilage forms a slight convex profile at rhinion area. Taking this angulation into account, we bring forth a modification of dorsal onlay graft. [METHODS] Sixty-one…

[BACKGROUND] A stable cartilaginous framework establishes the foundation for a successful rhinoplasty procedure. However, the curvature of the anterior septal angle usually does not match the added tip graft, leaving a structural gap that c…

A rhinoplasty technique involving lower lateral cartilage (LLC) repositioning and grafting of ear cartilage allows for nasal lengthening and nasal tip mobility. For better esthetic outcomes in patients with cleft lip nasal deformity (CLND),…

[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate the effectiveness of autologous costal cartilage-based open rhinoplasty in the correction of secondary unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity. [METHODS] Between January 2013 and June 2020, 30 patients with secondary u…

Capsular contracture is an important complication after silicone mammary implant surgery. Fibroblasts and macrophages play critical roles in the pathogenesis of capsular contracture, making these two cell types therapeutic targets. It has b…

The goal of nasal reconstruction surgery is to restore normal nasal shape and function, and its success begins with creating a stable framework. In this article the authors discuss the most advantageous materials for building such a framewo…
