[BACKGROUND] The nasal region is an essential component of facial aesthetics and is a crucial evaluation parameter in orthognathic surgery planning. Although numerous studies have investigated static changes in the nasal region at rest, dyn…

Secondary rhinoplasty (SRP) in patients with matured unilateral cleft lip and palate remains a surgical challenge due to nasal asymmetry, tip ptosis, and alar deformities. This study aimed to quantitatively assess morphological nasal change…

[BACKGROUND] The aim of the study was to demonstrate the therapeutic outcomes after a family strategy for nasoalveolar molding (Family-NAM) in infants with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate. [METHODS] Forty patients with unilateral …

Untreated mandibular condyle fractures in childhood can result in significant jaw deformities, such as mandibular retrognathism, open bite, and facial asymmetry, which may necessitate surgical intervention in later years. Surgical approache…

: Variability and low volume yield in breast aesthetic outcomes utilizing fat grafting promoted a search for surgical technique improvement. : Using evidence-based information to optimize a surgical technique for aesthetic breast augmentati…

[BACKGROUND] The deformity of high eyelid fold is a common complication of Asian blepharoplasty, and its correction remains a significant challenge in clinical practice. Our study introduced a refined technique for the correction of high ey…

[OBJECTIVE] This article introduces a surgical approach that emphasizes minimizing the removal of pretarsal tissue to achieve a stable and dynamic upper eyelid morphology while effectively preventing concave scarring at the incision site. …

[BACKGROUND] Correcting sunken eyelids is challenging. This is because the eyelid skin easily moves according to orbital fat volume, making it difficult to predict, which can lead to asymmetrical or unfavorable results. Currently, the preop…

Facial asymmetries can significantly affect patient satisfaction post-surgery. Social media can impact a patient's perception of their asymmetries. To gather insights into the practices, perceptions, and approaches concerning facial asymmet…

Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT/A) is widely used in both clinical and aesthetic settings to induce temporary neuromuscular paralysis by inhibiting acetylcholine release. Although generally regarded as safe and effective, complications such as…

Deformational plagiocephaly (DP), a distortion of a baby's head shape due to sleeping position, can cause ear malposition, facial asymmetry, and malocclusion. Helmet therapy only surfaced as a recommended treatment in severe cases. However,…

[BACKGROUND] Cleft lip and palate (CLP) represent one of the most prevalent congenital anomalies of the maxillofacial region, resulting in significant structural deformities that impact nasal function, facial aesthetics, and psychosocial we…

[BACKGROUND] Melasma is an acquired hyperpigmentation disorder with multifactorial etiologies and limited response to conventional therapies. Recent evidence suggests that Botulinum Toxin A (BoNT-A) may modulate ultraviolet (UV)-induced pig…

[OBJECTIVES] To investigate relationships and discordant results between caloric testing and video head impulse testing (vHIT) among patients with unilateral vestibular schwannoma (VS), trying to establish if caloric testing and vHIT may pr…

Kimura disease (KD) is a rare, chronic inflammatory disorder that typically presents as a painless mass in the head and neck region. It is histologically characterized by lymphoid follicular hyperplasia, eosinophilic infiltration, and vascu…

Becker nevus syndrome is a rare cutaneous disorder characterized by the presence of a hyperpigmented patch of skin typically occurring on the upper trunk, often associated with hypertrichosis, and sometimes associated with musculoskeletal a…
