[PURPOSE] Facial aging, characterized by skin laxity and the formation of wrinkles, is primarily attributed to collagen degradation and dermal thinning. Although ablative laser therapies have demonstrated efficacy in addressing these concer…

The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is the synapse formed between motor neurons and skeletal muscle fibers. Its stability relies on the continued expression of genes in a subset of myonuclei, called NMJ myonuclei. Here, we use single-nuclei RN…

[PURPOSE] Telemedicine has been increasingly utilized by plastic surgeons since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic as it minimizes visit time, costs, and viral exposures. However, patient comfort level and preference for telemedicine visits…

This study aimed to study 3-dimensional (3D) changes of hard and soft tissues of skeletal class II patients after 2-jaw surgery and genioplasty. 32 adult patients diagnosed with mandibular hypoplasia who underwent 2-jaw surgery of maxillary…

[BACKGROUND] Preventing benign strictures following esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) remains difficult, and finding a safe, effective, and simple management method is vital. We previously reported that rosuvastatin signific…

From July 2020 to March 2022, 3 patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and microgenia underwent transoral endoscopic thyroid surgery via a vestibular approach or a endoscopic lateral neck dissection via the breast and transoral approa…

[BACKGROUND] The use of acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) and mesh reopened the possibility for the prepectoral single-stage breast reconstruction (PBR). The complications of single-stage breast reconstruction after PRB are controversial. We…

Micromotors require stable and precise motion control for complex tasks such as microsurgery, drug delivery , or environmental monitoring . However, a continuous control signal is needed for micromotors to achieve motion control during thei…

[BACKGROUND] The NovoSorb® Biodegradable Temporising Matrix (BTM) is a synthetic polyurethane dermal matrix used to reconstruct complex wounds including deep dermal and full-thickness burns, necrotising fasciitis and free flap donor site. W…

On account of the poor biocompatibility of synthetic prosthesis, millions of rhinoplasty recipients have been forced to choose autologous costal cartilage as grafts, which suffer from limited availability, morbidity at the donor site and pr…

[INTRODUCTION] In order to increase junior resident physician proficiency and improve patient safety, simulation-based procedural training courses, or bootcamps, have been become an emerging educational tool. [OBJECTIVES] To compare pre- a…

[INTRODUCTION] Botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT-A) is a minimally invasive and technically straightforward treatment of masseter muscle (MM) volume reduction and facial contouring, but the literature on its long-term effect on MM volume remains…

[BACKGROUND] Oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) are currently used by approximately 16% of all women aged 15 to 44 in the United States and have been used by 80% of all sexually active women at some point in their lives. However, no guidelines…

[PURPOSE] To determine the graft retention rate of fat injection rhinoplasty in the nasal dorsum region using 3dMD System. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] Thirteen consecutive patients (12 women and 1 man) treated by the corresponding author (F.C.…

[BACKGROUND] Since 2006, the authors have explored the option of using septal cartilage as an alar rim graft on the cleft side during primary rhinoplasty to improve nasal symmetry. The aim of this study was to compare the nasal shape with o…

Pure diced cartilage graft has been the technique of choice for revision rhinoplasty in cleft patients since 2003 at our center. This technique has several advantages over the traditional en bloc cartilage onlay graft including minimal risk…

Medical decision-making is increasingly based on quantifiable data. From the moment patients come into contact with the health care system, their entire medical history is recorded electronically. Whether a patient is in the operating room …

[BACKGROUND] Plastic surgeons and manufacturers of breast implants have been examining the complication and reoperation rates of primary breast augmentations for more than 18 years. The seemingly high rates reported by the manufacturers to …
