03/01/2015 - "This study discusses the standard anesthetic protocol provided at the authors' institution and describes the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative management of face-lift patients resulting in low hematoma and complication rates. "
12/01/2005 - "This study analyzes the incidence of hematoma after male rhytidectomy at one institution after a strict and aggressive perioperative blood pressure control regimen was initiated. "
01/01/2004 - "The aim of this study was to investigate the statistical effect of these parameters on hematoma incidence in a large series of face lifts. "

06/01/2012 - "In 194 of our patients who underwent rhytidoplasties, we successfully eliminated these retroauricular and preauricular scars. "
01/01/2011 - "Mini- and short-scar face lifts using more conservative incision lengths and extent of undermining can be effective in the younger patient with lower face laxity and minimal loose, elastotic neck skin. "
10/01/1986 - "The W-plasty scar revision technique has been found to be effective in the repair of the difficult and cosmetically unsatisfactory hairline scar following the ill-advised face lift technique that excises forehead skin."
07/01/2008 - "In the appropriately selected face, short scar volumetric malar imbrication rhytidectomy is a straightforward, safe and effective procedure for improving the early signs of ageing."
05/01/1981 - "Rhytidectomy employing a two-layered closure: improved results with hidden scars."

10/01/2015 - "Whilst benefits in facelift surgery have been reported for a range of measures, including expanding haematoma, oedema and ecchymosis, irrefutable evidence has not yet been forthcoming. "
12/01/2013 - "Rapid resolution of post-face lift ecchymoses."
03/01/2009 - "The most common procedures associated with ecchymoses are cervicofacial rhytidectomy, facial lipocontouring, thread lift, and minimally invasive subperiosteal midface-lift. "
07/01/1995 - "A new dressing technique to minimize ecchymoses following face lifts."
09/01/2013 - "Review of the rhytidectomy literature described no significant decrease in postoperative edema or ecchymosis. "

07/01/1996 - "A prospective, double-blinded study of 30 consecutive face lift patients was conducted to determine if the administration of corticosteroid medication would reduce postoperative facial edema. "
07/01/1998 - "This miniinvasive approach has yielded equivalent results to our endoscopic rhytidectomies in appropriate patients, with reduced morbidity, edema, and operating time. "
07/01/1996 - "Does steroid medication reduce facial edema following face lift surgery? "
03/01/1993 - "The results indicate that the resulting image is accurate enough to detect subtle dimensional changes resulting from surgery, including postoperative edema and surface changes due to face-lift. "
06/01/2015 - "The use of superwet technique of infiltration and autologous tissue sealants during rhytidectomy has benefits of decreasing bleeding and edema, improving visualization, and easing dissection. "

08/01/1998 - "However, when comparisons were made between group 1 and group 2 patients in their specific neck deformity categories, it was found that the patients with the severe (type 3) neck deformity benefited most when the platysma interlocking suture sling was used in conjunction with the rhytidectomy procedure. "
07/01/2009 - "Recognition of the effects of aging on the ear and the mechanisms leading to ear deformity associated with facelift procedures can aid in achieving improved aesthetic results. "
07/01/2009 - "The purpose of this paper is to study the causes of ear deformity and describe the advantages of the author's technique for the prevention of ear deformities in facelift surgeries. "
