Brow suspension, a minimally invasive technique in facial rejuvenation
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(2002)People tend to prefer noninvasive or minimally invasive methods of facial rejuvenation, especially when it involves their face, which is the hallmark of a person's identity and impossible to hide. It is widely known that brow ptosis gives the face a "tired look" and also accentuates deformities of the upper eyelid. Most people who are interested in facial rejuvenation may not accept even a minor surgery, such as an endoscopic surgery. The senior author has developed a minimally invasive method of ...

Facial autologous soft-tissue contouring by adjunction of tissue cocktail injection (micrograft and minigraft mixture of dermis, fascia, and fat)
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(2000)Facial aging is both a physiologic and anatomic process characterized by changes in the skin and supporting tissues. The aging process produces an outer envelope that gradually expands while its contents gradually involute and the underlying structure weakens. This process results in an excess of skin that tends to create folds, grooves, and deepening furrows. Contour augmentation and filling depressions with autologous tissue or heterogeneous materials are widely used in face rejuvenation as an ...

In situ split costal cartilage graft harvesting through a small incision using a gouge
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2000)A costal cartilage graft is one of the most useful materials in reconstructive plastic surgery. In this article a technique of in situ split costal cartilage graft harvesting through a small incision (2 to 3 cm) using a gouge is described. The technique used has many advantages: it is a simple technique is easy to learn and can be performed quickly through a small incision. By avoiding complete costal cartilage graft harvesting the associated potential complications such as pleural perforation ...

New modification in otoplasty: Anterior approach
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2001)After harvesting the conchal cartilage in a large series of secondary rhinoplasties using the anterior approach there was a marked improvement in the shape of the auricle with unnoticeable scarring hidden under the convolution of the antihelix. In this series of 250 cases there were no hypertrophic scars or keloid formations. Based on these favorable results a new modification of otoplasty was developed using only the anterior approach. Between 1992 and 2000 108 otoplasties were performed on 55 ...

Reconstruction of the superior labial sulcus in secondary bilateral cleft lip deformities: An inverted U-shaped flap
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2001)A shallow buccal sulcus deformity following bilateral cleft lip repair is not rare. A variety of techniques are described for the secondary reconstruction of a deficient sulcus. Most of these are associated with a variable amount of contraction with subsequent obliteration of the sulcus. In this article an inverted U-shaped flap is described for the secondary reconstruction of the deficient sublabial sulcus. In these patients mobility of the upper lip was severely restricted so orthodontic treatment ...
