[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture remains a significant complication of nipple-sparing mastectomy(NSM) with immediate direct-to-implant(DTI) reconstruction. Although local inflammation is known to contribute to its development, the role of …

[PURPOSE] To evaluate the 10-year functional and oncological outcomes of single-port laparoscopically harvested omental flap (SLOF) for immediate breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery. The technical feasibility and oncologic saf…

Multimodal optical and ultrasound imaging (USI) provides complementary diagnostic insights. However, because conventional USI uses opaque ultrasound (US) transducers, integrating these two modalities results in a bulky and complicated handh…

The European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology-Advisory Committee in Radiation Oncology Practice (ESTRO-ACROP) updated a new target volume delineation guideline for postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) after implant-based reconstruction. …

Breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) remains a significant postcancer treatment challenge with no definitive cure. Recent supermicrosurgical treatments, such as lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA), have shown promise but lack established obje…

When considering surgery for patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL), it is crucial to determine which surgery will be most effective for the patient and establish the indications for each surgery. Our study retrospectively co…

[BACKGROUND] Implant-based reconstruction represents the most common form of breast reconstruction after mastectomy. Although the complication rate has lowered owing to the current advances, various implant-related complications are still a…

[PURPOSE] Lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA) is primarily used for treating early-stage lymphedema. Here, we aimed to investigate the relationship between lymphatic flow velocity and the efficacy of LVA in breast cancer-related lymphedema patie…

Intravenous ferric carboxymaltose (IV-FCM) can effectively correct perioperative anemia in patients undergoing major surgeries. However, its efficacy and side effects in patients undergoing free flap-based breast reconstruction are yet to b…

[BACKGROUND] The vascularity of the nipple-areolar complex (NAC) is altered after reduction mammoplasty, increasing the risk of complications after repeat reduction or nipple-sparing mastectomy. [OBJECTIVES] The aim of this study was to ev…

[BACKGROUND] This is the first clinical study conducted among Asian women using breast implants manufactured by an Asian company. Four-year data regarding the safety and efficacy of BellaGel breast implants have already been published, and …

[BACKGROUND] Deepening of the nasolabial fold with reduced malar highlight caused by sagging of the midface is one of the most important characteristics of facial aging. This report describes the use of 18-G polydioxanone (PDO) cog threads …

The development of breast implant technology continues to evolve over time, but changes in breast shape after implantation have not been fully elucidated. Thus, we performed computerized finite element analysis in order to better understand…

[BACKGROUND] Postoperative eyelid asymmetry is the most common complaint of patients after undergoing blepharoplasty and ptosis correction surgery. Calibrating eyelid asymmetry during ptosis correction surgery is still difficult for surgeon…

[BACKGROUND] Numerous techniques have been used for lower blepharoplasty. The techniques can be classified into four principles: excision of excess fat, septal reset, orbital fat repositioning, and reinforcement of the attenuated orbital se…

[UNLABELLED] Common side effects during hyaluronic acid filler injections are typically mild and reversible, but several reports of blindness have received attention. The present study focused on orbital symptoms combined with blindness, ai…

[BACKGROUND] Although many patients who undergo reduction mammaplasty are obese, reports on whether obesity is a risk factor for postoperative complications have been conflicting. [OBJECTIVES] This systematic literature review and meta-ana…

[BACKGROUND] Many patients undergo a revision surgery after malar reduction, which is one of the most popular aesthetic surgeries in Asia. We reviewed the leading causes of revision for malar reduction surgery to establish proper indication…

[BACKGROUND] Each year, thousands of patients, particularly Eastern Asians, receive reduction malarplasty to achieve a more feminine and slender facial appearance. To date, there lacks a systematic analysis regarding the postoperative compl…

[BACKGROUND] We hypothesized that the amount of bone resection and setback together controls the effect of reducing the zygomatic body during reduction malarplasty; however, quantitative analyses of this movement are lacking. [METHODS] A r…

[BACKGROUND] Achieving aesthetically favorable results in orthognathic surgery is equally as important as good postoperative occlusion and jaw function. Orthognathic surgery that only changes profile or proportion in the vertical dimension …

[BACKGROUND] Breast augmentation with fat transfer does not bear the risks associated with silicone implantation. The method can potentially be especially useful in Asian women, who often reject augmentation mammoplasty with implants. This …

[OBJECTIVE] Moderate-to-severe Parry-Romberg syndrome involves progressive atrophy of facial bony structures as well as changes in skin and subcutaneous tissue. To correct facial asymmetry in PRS patients, it is important to restore facial …
