[BACKGROUND] Reconstruction of total or near-total nasal defects is challenging and requires the re-creation of three nasal layers. Fasciocutaneous free flaps have been used effectively for restoring the vascularized nasal lining and staged…

[BACKGROUND] Several brow-lift techniques have been used to prevent brow ptosis after blepharoplasty. For example, both internal and external browpexies have been adopted worldwide. However, few studies have compared these two methods. The …

[BACKGROUND] The ability to simultaneously cut and perform hemostasis with low lateral thermal injury makes carbon dioxide laser a useful tool in blepharoplasty. Monopolar electrosurgery is another commonly used cutting tool that improves t…

[BACKGROUND] Since the issue of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma, smooth breast implants tend to be the more preferred option in implant-based breast reconstructions, compared to its use previously. The most unfavora…

[BACKGROUND] This study aimed to propose a novel four-type deformity and treatment-oriented classification of the lower eyelids that directs the therapeutic combination of three-step lower blepharoplasty for Asian populations. [METHODS] We…

Preoperative patient analysis for oral cancer involves multiple considerations that are based on multiple factors; these include TNM stages, histopathologic findings, and adjacent anatomical structures. Once the decision is made to excise t…

[BACKGROUND] Many Asian patients desire a narrower nasal base with less flaring of the alar lobules. However, patients who underwent multiple rhinoplasty surgeries with nostril contracture or an overreduction of the alar base may experience…

[BACKGROUND] To introduce an innovative refinement, the "double V cutting folded derotation graft" (DVCFD graft), which is a method for nasal tip lengthening in aesthetic rhinoplasty with strong holding force and efficient cartilage use. […

[BACKGROUND] Both mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium (MSC CM) and Botox have demonstrated therapeutic effects for hypertrophic scar (HS). It is unclear whether a synergistic effect occurs when these treatments are used in combination.…

[BACKGROUND] We investigated RNA sequencing-based transcriptome profiling and the transformation of mature osteoblasts into bone lining cells (BLCs) through a lineage tracing study to better understand the effect of mechanical unloading on …

[BACKGROUND] The authors evaluated the efficacy of a combined regimen of botulinum toxin type A (Botox) and a steroid (triamcinolone acetonide) for treating hypertrophic scars in comparison with the treatment with each drug alone. [METHODS…

[PURPOSE] To study the aesthetic appearance of skeletal Class Ⅱ patients with maxillary protrusion and mandibular retrusion treated with different methods. [METHODS] The facial profile photographs and lateral cephalometric radiographs of a…

[BACKGROUND] Donor site scarring after forehead flap nasal reconstruction is acceptable. However, as aesthetic outcomes standards for cosmetic and reconstructive surgery merge, we aim to enhance results. We recently demonstrated the cosmeti…

Septal cartilage is deficient in Asians seeking augmentation rhinoplasty. Economized utilization of resources is necessary for durable tip enhancement that complements a dorsal implant. We introduce a modified tongue-in-groove method design…

[BACKGROUND] Retrobulbar hemorrhage is a rare complication of midface injury, blepharoplasty, facial fracture surgery, periorbital surgery, and circumbulbar anesthesia. The incidence of postoperative retrobulbar hemorrhage is 0.3% to 4% aft…

[BACKGROUND] Carved autologous costal cartilage is widely used in different rhinoplasty procedures because of its availability and proven advantages. However, the usefulness of rib grafts is limited by warping postoperatively. The chimeric …

[BACKGROUND] Loss of cervicomental angle is characteristic of severe facial and cervical burned patients due to scar contracture. This micrognathia-like deformity is also seen in patients following chin and neck reconstruction using skin ex…

The characteristics of rapid wound healing and multiple harvest capacity make the scalp an important donor site when dealing with large and deep burn wounds. This paper reports the results of a retrospective analysis of 150 patients treated…

Ptosis of the upper eyelid is a complicated problem, and many surgical techniques have been developed for the treatment of ptosis. Frontalis sling with autogenous fascial strip for the correction of severe ptosis with poor levator function …

Scar revision is almost a daily work of plastic surgeons, but sometimes it is a challenge to them. Persistent hypertrophic scar in the perioral area is very difficult to treat because of its anatomic location. Many methods of scar removal, …

Satisfactory coverage of some deep burn wounds is very difficult. During the past year, 20 de-epithelialized turn-over flaps have been used to cover deep burn wounds in 17 patients. Most of the wounds resulted from electrical injuries which…
