Abstract |
Fifty consecutive rhytidectomies were performed utilizing high frequency needle dissection on one side and standard sharp dissection on the other for all incisions and flap elevation. The efficacy of this technique in hemostasis, prevention of hematoma, and wound healing is compared to the conventional technique of rhytidectomy. The advantages and disadvantages of the modality are discussed.
