[INTRODUCTION] Capsular contracture remains a significant challenge in breast implant surgery. Recent research has focused on the role of inflammatory mediators, particularly leukotrienes. The aim of this article was to conduct a systematic…

[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is considered the gold standard for autologous breast reconstruction. Many patients have had previous abdominal surgery (PAS), which poses a challenge in flap harvesting and m…

[BACKGROUND] Little is known about the influence of handedness on the outcome of operations in plastic surgery. Our study addresses the question of whether there is a difference between the right and left sides in the outcome of plastic sur…

Single-stage mastopexy-augmentation has been demonstrated to be a safe procedure. However, revisions may still be necessary. We evaluate 95 consecutive patients undergoing mastopexy-augmentation and introduce a new surgical technique for th…

[BACKGROUND] A deviated nose is a common problem among patients for both cosmetic and functional reasons. The correction remains a major challenge for the rhinoplasty surgeon. Unrecognized nasal septal deviations stand as the primary reason…

The ultimate breast mastopexy technique allows a reliable and consistent transposition of the nipple-areolar complex (NAC) with preservation of nipple viability, sensation, and lactation potential. Ideally, good upper pole fullness with a d…

[BACKGROUND] Preservation rhinoplasty (PR) is considered to be an innovative approach with high patient satisfaction. However, little is known about its functional outcomes and radiological analyses. [PATIENTS AND METHODS] In this prospect…

[BACKGROUND] Rhinoplasty is a challenging procedure, and the ultimate goal is not only to restore the function and youthful appearance, but also to improve the quality of life (QoL). Little is known about the QoL after preservation rhinopla…

Breast hypertrophy (macromastia) can cause various symptoms correlated with excessive breast volume and is usually associated with breast ptosis. Symptomatic macromastia can constitute a heavy burden on patient's global health. While conser…

[BACKGROUND/AIM] Free flap reconstruction with damaged or diseased vessels is a challenging problem. We describe our case series using an arteriovenous loop or bypass surgery with free flaps for complex defect reconstructions at the lower e…

With a lot of uncertainty, unclear, and frequently changing management protocols, COVID-19 has significantly impacted the orthopaedic surgical practice during this pandemic crisis. Surgeons around the world needed closed introspection, cont…

[OBJECTIVE] In most primary and secondary rhinoplasties, the adjustment of the nasal tip in terms of position, projection, and configuration is mandatory. Usually, this is one of the most challenging parts of the operation. The aim of this …

[BACKGROUND/AIM] We hypothesized that improved functional outcome after preservation rhinoplasty can be validated by radiological analyses. [PATIENTS AND METHODS] In this retrospective study, five patients were included. Radiological asses…

[BACKGROUND] Postoperative hypertrophic scarring of the medial canthal area is a common phenomenon and deterrent for patients considering epicanthoplasty. Botulinum toxin type A has been reported for hypertrophic scar and keloid treatment. …

A 46-year-old immunosuppressed patient presented with a breast implant-associated infection 10 years after breast augmentation in Southeast Asia. No pathogen was identified in the initial conventional microbiological workup. Subsequently, i…

[BACKGROUND] Over the years, many techniques have been described to correct tear trough deformity (TTD). Fat-repositioning lower blepharoplasty via a transconjunctival approach is increasingly applied due to its satisfactory rejuvenating ef…

[BACKGROUND] Abdominal cutaneous sensitivity loss after abdominoplasty is an undesirable outcome. However, little is known in the literature about sensitivity changes of the neo-umbilicus after abdominoplasty. The aim of this study was to e…

[BACKGROUND] Presently, many techniques have been described to make the epicanthal fold less prominent. However, visible scarring remains a major concern in most techniques. The aim of this study was to develop a novel design using conceale…

[BACKGROUND] Many studies of gluteal augmentation techniques have been published in recent decades, including case reports, retrospective and prospective case series, and multicenter survey reviews. However, to date, there has been no study…

[BACKGROUND] Multiple symmetric lipomatosis (MSL) is a rare condition leading to grotesque disfigurement. Complete removal is almost impossible and recurrences inevitable. The objective of this study was to evaluate powered-assisted liposuc…

[INTRODUCTION] Body-contouring (BC) procedures after massive weight loss (MWL) are extensive and numerous. Currently, inconsistent data exist regarding quality-of-life (QoL) scales, and long-term analysis is lacking. The aim of this study w…

[BACKGROUND] Silicone breast implants are used to a wide extent in the field of plastic surgery. However, capsular contracture remains a considerable concern. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness and applicability of an ultracision…
