Facelift procedures have undergone rapid evolution in the last century, with initially subcutaneous techniques now shifting to superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) manipulation and deep plane techniques, along with the popularizatio…

The retrograde approach to mid-face thread lift, utilizing reverse temporal vectors, offers an innovative advancement in minimally invasive facial rejuvenation. This study evaluates its efficacy and safety in 20 female patients aged 30-60 y…

[BACKGROUND] Facelifts are commonly associated with postoperative complications. The hemostatic net has emerged as a promising approach to reduce these events. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the hem…

[BACKGROUND] Injection of dermal fillers has been used increasingly for facial rejuvenation by practitioners of esthetic medicine. The rise in these procedures has led to more dermal filler-related complications that can mimic common pathol…

Simultaneous rhytidectomy and laser resurfacing has become a common single-stage facial rejuvenation technique. However, concerns remain, particularly with photothermal injury to undermined tissue. This is the first methodologically robust …

The aim of this manuscript was to describe a surgical technique to modify Tapia's flap for malar volume enhancement, to describe the results of an anatomical study of the transverse facial artery, and to present the results of a retrospecti…

[BACKGROUND] Deep-plane facelift (DPF) and its extended modification (EDPF) have been developed to address age-related changes in the lower face, particularly marionette lines, jowls, and neck laxity. Although both techniques provide durabl…

[BACKGROUND] Plastic surgeons have a variety of treatment options for perioral rejuvenation, including chemical peels, energy-based skin-tightening devices, microneedling, microcoring, fat grafting, fillers, neuromodulators, and surgical li…

Facial rejuvenation is one of the most sought-out procedures in the field of aesthetic medicine and surgery. The advent of various lasers, energy-based devices, skincare products, fillers, and neuromodulators has spurred interest in rejuven…
