The Extended SMAS Controls Submandibular Gland Ptosis.
[BACKGROUND] Conventional facelift surgery may fail to adequately address submandibular gland ptosis (SMGP), prompting recommendations for partial gland resection. Alternatively, the extended SMAS technique involves a more extensive SMAS-pl…

Ultrasound-Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane Blocks Versus Local Infiltration Anesthesia on Postanesthesia Care Unit Pain Control in Patients Undergoing Abdominoplasty.
[GOALS/PURPOSE] The goal of this study was to compare ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) blocks to local infiltration anesthesia with or without blind rectus sheath blocks in patients who underwent abdominoplasty at an outp…

Local Infiltration Anesthesia Versus Ultrasound-Guided Pectoralis (PEC1) + Serratus Anterior Plane (SAP) Blocks on Postanesthetic Care Unit Pain Control in Patients Undergoing Primary Submuscular Augmentation Mammoplasty.
[BACKGROUND] Ultrasound-guided regional field blocks are not widely used in outpatient plastic surgeries. The efficacy of truncal blocks (PEC1 + SAP) has not been established in plastic surgery. The purpose of this study was to analyze the …

Defining the Cervical Line in Face-Lift Surgery: A Three-Dimensional Study of the Cervical and Marginal Mandibular Branches of the Facial Nerve.
[BACKGROUND] Continuous sub-superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) dissection in the cheek with subplatysmal dissection in the neck is an important feature of many face-lift techniques, yet the neural anatomy in this area remains uncl…

Ranking United States Plastic Surgery Residency Programs Based on Academic Achievement of Faculty Members.
[INTRODUCTION] The Doximity Residency Navigator is currently the only resource that ranks plastic surgery residency programs. Given the paucity of objective program rankings, in this study, we devised a new algorithm to rank plastic surgery…

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocol With Ultrasound-Guided Regional Blocks in Outpatient Plastic Surgery Patients Leads to Decreased Opioid Prescriptions and Consumption.
[BACKGROUND] Opioids are a mainstay of pain management. To limit the use of opioids, enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols implement multimodal approaches to treat postoperative pain. [OBJECTIVES] The aim of this paper was to be…

Ultrasound Imaging of the Superficial Fascial System Can Predict the Subcutaneous Strength of Abdominal Tissue Using Mean Gray Value Quantification.
[BACKGROUND] This study is the first to correlate sonographic findings of subcutaneous tissue to structural and biomechanical properties. [METHODS] Precisely sized tissue specimens (59 samples) were collected from five abdominoplasty proce…

Portable Color-Flow Ultrasound Facilitates Precision Flap Planning and Perforator Selection in Reconstructive Plastic Surgery.
[BACKGROUND] Precise flap planning and perforator selection are paramount for successful perforator flap surgery. Portable color-flow ultrasound (PCFU) is a convenient, low-cost, easily accessible imaging modality that is pivotal in the pla…

Regional Anesthetic Blocks in Plastic Surgery Using Portable Ultrasound: A Simplified Approach.
[BACKGROUND] With the introduction of latest generation ultrasound technology and its easy availability and portability, regional anesthetic blocks, which were formally in the domain of anesthesiologists, have now become available to practi…

Ultrasound and Plastic Surgery: Clinical Applications of the Newest Technology.
[BACKGROUND] Color Doppler ultrasound (CDUS) has not been routinely used in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Barriers to use have included large, cumbersome equipment, low-definition images, cost, and availability. In addition, programs …

Conservative augmentation with periareolar mastopexy reduces complications and treats a variety of breast types: a 5-year retrospective review of 100 consecutive patients.
Augmentation with mastopexy remains a challenge because reported complication and revision rates remain high. Previous publications are difficult to interpret because of inclusion of a broad array of mastopexy techniques and different impla…

Five-year retrospective review of the extended SMAS: critical landmarks and technical refinements.
The beneficial effects of SMAS flap manipulation have been clearly demonstrated for the neck and jowls; however, safe limits of subplatysmal dissection in the neck have not been established, and recommendations vary widely. Sixty patients u…

The case against medial pectoral releases: a retrospective review of 315 primary breast augmentation patients.
Although medial pectoral releases have been recommended as an important component of retropectoral breast augmentation surgery, there has been no study that documents the benefit or need for this potentially harmful surgical maneuver. In th…
