A Fatty flap harvested from the double chin for chin enhancement: A new surgical technique
The primary goal of any cervicofacial rejuvenation procedure is to restore the distribution and balance of the volume compartment as well as to improve the harmony of the arches and convexities of the face and neck.1 The lip-chin proportion contributes tremendously to the variability of the beauty in the lower part of the face.2 Some authors undertake submental liposuction in conjunction with the projection of a receding chin by using a chin implant to improve the face profile.3 Henceforth, we have developed a novel surgical technique that simultaneously corrects a double chin and enhances the chin by employing preplatysma...

The delay procedure in deep inferior epigastric artery perforator flap breast reconstruction
CONCLUSIONS: The delay procedure in DIEP flap breast reconstruction results in the harvest of a good amount of abdominal tissue by adding a preliminary procedure. This technique can convert patients previously considered unsuitable into suitable candidates for abdominal-based breast reconstruction.PMID:37335555 | DOI:10.1097/PRS.0000000000010837 (Source: Hand Surgery)

Injectable pulverized electrospun poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) fibers improve human adipose tissue engraftment and volume retention
J Biomed Mater Res A. 2023 Jun 16. doi: 10.1002/jbm.a.37581. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAutologous adipose tissue is commonly used for tissue engraftment for the purposes of soft tissue reconstruction due to its relative abundance in the human body and ease of acquisition using liposuction methods. This has led to the adoption of autologous adipose engraftment procedures that allow for the injection of adipose tissues to be used as a "filler" for correcting cosmetic defects and deformities in soft tissues. However, the clinical use of such methods has several limitations, including high resorption rates and poor cell su...

Liposuction versus Periareolar Excision Approach for Gynecomastia Treatment
CONCLUSIONS: The management of GM by liposuction, either with the periareolar excision technique or without skin incision, allows the effective removal of fat and glandular tissue of the male breast. Although there was no significant difference regarding postoperation complications between groups, patients' satisfaction should be considered.PMID:37288017 | PMC:PMC10241644 | DOI:10.4103/abr.abr_374_21 (Source: Biomed Res)

The combination of endoscopic subcutaneous mastectomy and liposuction (Liu and Shang ’s 2-hole 7-step method) as the treatment of gynecomastia
Most patients suffering from gynecomastia require treatment to maintain a smooth subcutaneous tissue contour, remove loose skin, and leave a suitable nipple-areolar complex with minimal scarring; hence, surgery has become the prime choice to treat gynecomastia. Based on our experience, Liu and Shang ’s 2-hole 7-step method works well for these patients. (Source: Surgery)
