TL;DR: Preserved soft tissue envelope and nasal ligaments can be preserved in most patients, and long-term issues with the middle vault and keystone area can be avoided.

TL;DR: The authors aim to thoroughly describe the critical surgical anatomy of the facial layers, the retaining ligamentous attachments of the face, and the complex three-dimensional course of the pertinent nerves to enable easy, sound, and safe navigation during surgery.

TL;DR: The use of FG-e-ASCs was safe and effective in this series of cases performed and retention in the SG was higher than that in the CG (P < .0001 SG vs. CG).

TL;DR: It is submitted that continued leadership, mentorship, and sponsorship provided by both male and female physicians in the field will facilitate future leadership, advance gender parity, and cultivate a sense of belonging within the plastic surgery community, allowing brilliant minds to flourish and the profession to thrive.

TL;DR: Methods and techniques available to reduce the risk of visual loss due to filler injections are described and suggested initial management should a clinician find themselves in this situation are described.

TL;DR: Implants with higher surface area/texture seem to be more associated with BIA-ALCL in Australia, and recent regulatory action to suspend, cancel, or recall some of these higher risk devices is supported by these findings.

TL;DR: Histopathologic quantification showed significant structural muscle changes through a combination of fiber hypertrophy and hyperplasia in striated porcine muscle tissue following HifEM treatment, suggesting that HIFEM could be used for noninvasive induction of muscle growth.

TL;DR: It is suggested that adherence to a surgical technique focused on minimizing bacterial contamination of the implant is of greater clinical significance than implant surface characteristics when discussing capsular contracture.

TL;DR: Social media is a novel platform that is becoming increasingly utilized in plastic surgery and its impact can be beneficial, but it is not well understood in the context of social media sponsorship and promotion.

TL;DR: Google Trends is characterizes as a convenient and informative data set for plastic surgeons to analyze patient interest in cosmetic body-sculpting procedures and represents a useful instrument for tailoring marketing strategies and addressing the needs of the patient population.

TL;DR: There was a significant decrease in recent PFE and trends showed a change to safer techniques and improvement in safety of the procedure.

TL;DR: The antimicrobial effectiveness of clinically utilized Betadine and non-Betadine solutions, along with other antimicrobial agents that have not yet been tested, against multiple organisms, including additional common gram-negative bacteria associated with chronic breast implant infections/inflammation are revisited.

TL;DR: Clinically, results of this study favor a superficial injection plane for lip volumization procedures as a perpendicular approach to the lip (coming from the cutaneous lip) might increase safety as the artery is located most frequently within the red lip.

TL;DR: SCHNOS-C correlates with BDDQ-AS and may help screen rhinoplasty patients at higher risk for BDD and may also help identify mental health disorders underdiagnosed in clinical settings.

TL;DR: Preserving the bony cap while performing the cartilaginous push-down may prevent complications related to the osseous resection of the keystone area during nasal hump treatment.

TL;DR: The clitoral body is substantial in length, mostly lying superficially under the clitoral hood and mons pubis, and the dorsal nerves of the clitoris are large and superficial, terminating at or near the base of the genital glans.

TL;DR: A seven-day postoperative course of once-daily enoxaparin for VTE risk reduction in abdominal body contouring surgery does not significantly increase the risk of bleeding.

TL;DR: This study illustrates that FFS changes the social perception of a patient's gender and patients after FFS are more likely to be identified as female and with greater confidence than before surgery.

TL;DR: There is evidence that genuine DTH reactions caused by HA fillers approved by the Food and Drug Administration do exist and this adverse event can be prevented by performing a pretreatment skin test, but the incidence of both delayed inflammatory reactions and DTH reaction is low.

TL;DR: Mechanically isolated SVF offers a safe, easy and legal treatment modality for a range of indications and future research is indicated to identify the optimal isolation protocol, dose and timing.

TL;DR: The HIFEM-induced muscle hypertrophy, fat reduction, and reduction in abdominal separation were maintained 1-year post-treatment, which suggests long-term durability of the original bodily response, which needs to be verified by continuing follow-up of this group and by further studies.

TL;DR: The Ethmoidal point was located before the beginning of the nasal hump in 97% (67/69) of nasal hump patients, and it could be found a mean distance of 2.3 mm cephalic to the latter.

TL;DR: PRF can promote autocrine of the grafted fat to produce more growth factors and significantly increased fat retention rate, possibly by promoting vascularization and adipogenic differentiation, inhibiting cellular apoptosis, and regulating collagen production.

TL;DR: Overall correlation between citations and AAS was weak, and therefor AAS may not be an accurate early predictor of future citations.

TL;DR: Ceffe increased the dermal thickness of nude mice possibly by enhancing angiogenesis and extracellular matrix production and can, therefore, be used for skin rejuvenation.

TL;DR: When working with the bony pyramid, this approach limits patient movement, thus ensuring stability of the side walls of the bones in the short term and over the long term, which has the greatest effect on the aesthetic results.

TL;DR: STEs represent a safe and efficacious alternative to TTE breast reconstruction with at least equitable outcomes and warrant comparative evaluation for potential superiority over TTEs in a prospective randomized trial.

TL;DR: The ranking CNN algorithm is both accurate and precise in estimating human age before and after cosmetic rhinoplasty, and should be revisited.

TL;DR: The AFG volume in hybrid BA procedures can be estimated utilizing measurements based on implant volume/projection, and this low-cost method can be applied to guide surgical decision making in patients who are candidates for BA.

TL;DR: The use of smooth implants to prevent BIA-ALCL is not cost-effective andBanning texturized implants to Prevent Bia-alCL may involve additional consequences, which should be considered in light of higher CC rates and more reoperations associated with smooth implants than with texturized implant.
