The Management of Chemosis after Blepharoplasty
Facial Plast Surg DOI: 10.1055/a-1967-6050Chemosis is a common, though typically temporary complication of both upper and lower blepharoplasty surgery, though it is much more common after the latter. It occurs due to extravasation of fluid into the subconjunctival space precipitated by desiccation, inflammation, and manipulation of the conjunctiva and associated lymphatic drainage. Intraoperatively, minimizing surgical exposure and manipulation as well as maintaining a moist ocular surface can reduce the risks. Postoperatively, we propose a stepwise approach, starting with lubricants and escalating to increasingly potent a...

Staggered Setting of Latissimus Dorsi and Serratus Anterior Flaps for the Treatment of Scalp Avulsions: A Retrospective Study
Facial Plast Surg DOI: 10.1055/a-1967-8376Although the incidence of scalp avulsion has decreased in recent years, it remains a major concern among plastic surgeons. We therefore aimed to introduce an improved free flap technique for repairing scalp avulsion with less tissue from the donor site. This method can achieve maximum primary closure of the donor site and improve its appearance and function as well as reduce the donor-site morbidity by ensuring that a smaller free flap can completely cover the scalp defect. Eight patients with scalp avulsion who had undergone staggered placement of the free flaps were evaluated. Da...

Generic Health-Related Quality-of-Life Changes after Rhinoplasty: A Prospective Study with Long-Term Results
Conclusions This prospective study with long-term results demonstrates that rhinoplasty significantly improves most domains of generic HRQoL. This improvement is associated with patient-reported functional improvement. Emotional limitation and social functioning are not significantly changed by rhinoplasty.

Selective Neurectomy for Treatment of Post-Facial Paralysis Synkinesis: A Systematic Review
Conclusion SN can be considered as an adjunct to other management options including neuromuscular retraining, Botox, selective myectomy, and reanimation procedures. While there is great heterogeneity of study design in the studies included, many cohorts showed improvement in facial symmetry, facial function, and quality of life. There remains a great gap in knowledge in this subject matter and a need for large well-designed prospective studies comparing this technique to other management options.

Are antibiotics needed in septorhinoplasty? An evidence-based approach
Facial Plast Surg DOI: 10.1055/a-1920-0876The use of prophylactic antibiotics in the context of septorhinoplasty (SRP) is a frequently debated topic among plastic surgeons. Most surgeons routinely use antibiotics to prevent the dreaded physical and psychological morbidity of post-operative infections, although this practice is controversial. With antimicrobial resistance becoming a global threat, however, optimising antibiotic prescribing is essential. The current evidence would suggest that the rate of post-operative infection is low and routine antibiotic use is unnecessary in SRP surgery. Rates range from 0.5% to 2% in ...
