the accredited Cosmetic Facial Surgery office a paradigm shift in oral and maxilloFacial Surgery
Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2009Co-Authors: Joseph NiamtuAbstract:In the recent past, it was not unusual to admit elective Surgery patients the day before their Surgery to obtain the laboratory assessment, history, and physical examination and to “settle them in” to the hospital routine. Today, outpatient Surgery is the norm, and the surgeon must justify any hospital stay. Also, surgical reimbursement is much lower than in the past, and efficiency in care is needed. My personal story illustrates the issues faced today in ambulatory major Surgery. I began private practice in 1983 similar to all enthusiastic residents ready to “hit the private practice pavement running.” I hired 2 staff members and opened a 1,200 square-foot office. The practice quickly took off, and we have not slowed down since. We now have a group practice of 8 surgeons in 6 offices with 75 employees. I did as much major Surgery as a practitioner could do, and, with the help of my competent partners, our business has continued to grow and prosper.

the use of restylane in Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2006Co-Authors: Joseph NiamtuAbstract:f o d u s H b s r 2 c h h a i t j a l B b t fi b d he injection of filler substances is one of the most ommon procedures in Cosmetic Surgery. In 2003, he number of nonsurgical procedures increased 22% rom 2002. The last 5 years have brought about an xtreme interest in minimally invasive rejuvenation echniques. The ease and popularity of Botox (Alleran Inc, Irvine, CA) has popularized and expanded he use of rejuvenative injections. This, coupled ith the introduction of multiple new products, has ncreased the number of treatment options for cosetic patients. Multiple substances are available to nject into Facial wrinkles, folds, lips, traumatic deects, and depressed scars, and to augment Facial form Table 1). Over the last century some substances, such as araffin and silicone, have been used with associated roblems. For over 2 decades the gold standard for njectable Facial fillers in the United States has been ovine-derived collagen (Zyplast; Inamed Inc, Santa arbara, CA). This product was available in several iscosities (particle sizes) to use in different indicaions from fine lines and wrinkles to lip plumping. Various advantages and disadvantages exist with all ller substances. One of the biggest disadvantages has een the need for allergy testing with the non-human reparations. In addition to the possible allergic reacion, Cosmetic patients are very impulsive consumers nd having to wait a month for an allergy test before reatment is a huge drawback. Many of the newer roducts are non-animal and do not require allergy esting. Another problematic situation that can present is he use of “permanent fillers” (products such as silione liquid or those containing methylmethacrylate pheres that are not resorbed by the body). In this ase, a permanent filler can cause permanent compli-

Advanta ePTFE Facial implants in Cosmetic Facial Surgery.
Journal of oral and maxillofacial surgery : official journal of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, 2006Co-Authors: Joseph NiamtuAbstract:e m “ r osmetic rejuvenation of the lips, Facial folds, and rinkles are frequently sought after procedures. A ise in the popularity of Cosmetic Surgery has made inimally invasive procedures extremely popular. ver the years, many types of fillers have been used o augment the face. These include silicone, fat, exanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), cadaver deris, bovine collagen, hyaluronic acid, hydroxyapatite nd methylmethacrylate microspheres, and many ther products or preparations. Each type of filler as relative advantages and disadvantages and historcally fall in and out of favor for soft tissue Facial ugmentation. Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene was synthesized y the W.L. Gore Company and has been used safely nd effectively in the human body for over 30 years or various applications in vascular and Cosmetic surery. Many articles have described the use of ePTFE or Cosmetic Facial surgical applications. This auhor has been placing soft tissue ePTFE Facial implants or 10 years. These implants have been very sucessful in subperiosteal placement or in subdermal lacement in the upper face. One problem this author as encountered with previous ePTFE implantation in he lips is that the implants became hardened, disorted and less pliable, especially in more superficial pplications (Fig 1). Although none of these patients experienced infecion or untoward histologic effects, the implants beame more palpable and frequently visible in areas of ncreased tissue movement. Patients reported that the mplants felt stiff or that they could see the implants n animation. Due to this, some of these implants ere removed. Explantation is uneventful as extreme issue in growth is rare with the biologically compatble ePTFE. Due to these perceived problems, the

comparison of ibuprofen and acetaminophen with codeine following Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Journal of Otolaryngology-head & Neck Surgery, 2009Co-Authors: Theodore Chen, Peter A AdamsonAbstract:Objectifs: L'etude avait pour objectifs de comparer l'efficacite et les effets indesirables de l'ibuprofene et de l'acetaminophene avec codeine apres une operation esthetique Faciale, et d'evaluer si l'ibuprofene etait associe a des contusions plus etendues ou a une frequence plus elevee d'hematomes que l'acetaminophene avec codeine. Type d'etude: Il s'agit d'un essai prospectif, a double insu, avec repartition aleatoire. Lieu: L'essai a ete mene dans un etablissement agree de chirurgie ambulatoire. Methode: Les sujets ont recu, selon un horaire determine, de l'ibuprofene, dose a 400 mg, ou de l'acetaminophene avec codeine, dose a 600 mg et a 60 mg, par voie orale, quatre fois par jour, jusqu'au 3 e jour postoperatoire inclusivement. Les patients ont note l'intensite de la douleur sur une echelle visuelle analogue de 10 cm, de meme que tous les effets indesirables, toujours selon un horaire determine, et ce, pendant les 3 premiers jours postoperatoires. Il y a eu evaluation de l'etendue des contusions au 4 e jour postoperatoire, et les hematomes postoperatoires ont ete traites et consignes au dossier. Resultats: Il n'y avait pas de difference importante entre les deux groupes quant au soulagement de la douleur ou a la moyenne des resultats concernant les contusions. Toutefois, les sujets recevant de l'ibuprofene ont eprouve sensiblement moins d'effets indesirables et etaient moins susceptibles de changer de medicament que les sujets recevant de l'acelaminophene avec codeine. Aucun hematome postoperatoire n'est apparu dans l'un ou l'autre des deux groupes. Conclusions: L'ibuprofene, dose a 400 mg, est aussi efficace que l'acetaminophene avec codeine, dose a 600 mg et a 60 mg, pour le soulagement de la douleur a la suite d'une operation esthetique Faciale. L'ibuprofene est egalement mieux tolere et produit moins d'effets indesirables que l'acetaminophene avec codeine. Enfin, l'ibuprofene, en administration postoperatoire, n'est pas associe a des contusions plus etendues ou a une frequence plus elevee d'hematomes que l'analgesique de reference.

new directions in laser therapy combination of carbon dioxide laser resurfacing and incisional Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2002Co-Authors: Gary J RosenbergAbstract:As clinicians enter a time of increasingly greater patient demand for quality of Surgery, superior results, and efficient time use, the plastic surgeon should have as many tools as possible to accomplish these ends. Patient safety should never be compromised, however. A thorough analysis of the patient regarding physical complaints and social and medical history is of utmost importance. The guidelines that have been enumerated are just that-guidelines. Still, the plastic surgeon must use all of his or her experience and knowledge to formulate the best and most appropriate surgical plan for each individual patient.

complications of rhytidectomy in an otolaryngology training program
Laryngoscope, 1999Co-Authors: Christopher A Sullivan, Jeffrey S Masin, Anthony J Maniglia, David W StepnickAbstract:Objectives/Hypothesis: Complications of rhytidectomy have been widely reported in the literature. This study examines the incidence of complications after rhytidectomy in the hands of chief residents under appropriate attending supervision in an otolaryngology-head and neck Surgery training program. Materials and Methods: The charts of 96 consecutive SMAS rhytidectomy patients were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were selected for Surgery from a clinic designed exclusively for Cosmetic Facial Surgery patients. This clinic was run by the otolaryngology chief resident and was supervised by an attending staff surgeon. Most patients elected local anesthesia and sedation administered by the surgical team. Submental liposuction was performed followed by SMAS plication rhytidectomy. Results: Follow-up ranged from 1 to 60 months. Complications included expanding hematoma (1%), temporary Facial nerve weakness (3%), pretragal/mastoid skin slough (4.2%), permanent ear numbness (1%), hypertrophic scar (3.1%), wound infection (1%), and dissatisfaction with result (4%). There were no cases of permanent Facial nerve injury. Conclusion: These complication rates compare favorably with reported rates of larger studies over the past 30 years. These data support the conclusion that rhytidectomy can be performed safely by otolaryngology residents with little morbidity and good patient satisfaction.

perioral treatment options in Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Nederlands Tijdschrift Voor Tandheelkunde, 2017Co-Authors: F Bierenbroodspot, R H Schepers, H J Schouten, J JansmaAbstract:The perioral region is unique and important in the face, both from a functional and an aesthetic point of view. There is a strong relationship between the perioral soft tissues, such as the lips and the corners of the mouth, and the underlying dentition and the jaws. Perioral ageing phenomena, such as depressed corners of the mouth, volume loss and wrinkles, can be improved, however, to a limited extent with intraoral treatment. These ageing phenomena can usually be treated more effectively with several extraoral treatment modalities that also enhance perioral aesthetics. The perioral Cosmetic treatment options can be divided into various lifting procedures and volumising techniques. Considering that the dentist has to deal regularly with patients with perioral aesthetic wishes and also functional problems, it is important that one has knowledge of the different perioral treatment options, for both Cosmetic and functional options.

skin improvement and Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Nederlands Tijdschrift Voor Tandheelkunde, 2014Co-Authors: J Jansma, R H Schepers, Arjan VissinkAbstract:Intensieve huidbehandelingen nemen een steeds prominentere plaats in bij de behandeling van gezichtsveroudering. Deze behandelingen zijn gericht op het creeren van een selectieve beschadiging van het oppervlak van de huid waarna genezing optreedt, de zogenoemde ‘resurfacing’ van de huid. Tijdens de genezing worden fibroblasten gestimuleerd om nieuw collageen en elastine aan te maken waardoor een huidverjongend effect wordt bereikt. Behandelingen voor resurfacing kunnen worden verricht met behulp van chemische peeling, dermabrasie en lasers. De wens en verwachting van de patient, het huidtype en de ervaring van de behan delaar spelen een belangrijke rol bij de keuze voor een bepaalde behandeling. Daarnaast wordt in toenemende mate gebruik gemaakt van huidverbeteringsmiddelen in zowel de voorberei dende fase als de herstelfase rondom huidbehandelingen, wederom met het oog op een maximaal behandelresultaat. Complicaties bij intensieve huidbehandelingen zijn zeldzaam en meestal terug te leiden op onjuiste indicatiestelling of onvoorzichtigheid.

The application of alloplastic materials for augmentation in Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2014Co-Authors: J Jansma, R H Schepers, Arjan VissinkAbstract:Alloplastic augmentation materials can be used to change or to accentuate Facial contours and to add Facial v olume. These implants are usually inserted in a subperiosteal pocket but can also be placed supraperiostally. The most popular Facial implants are made of solid silicone, porous polyethylene or porous hydroxylapatite. Several sizes of anatomically pre-shaped implants are obtainable for the mid- and lower Facial regions, the periorbital region, the mandibular angle and the chin region. Complications are rare, and most often involve migration of the implant and an infection. Alternatives to Facial augmentation are osteotomies of the Facial bones and selective microfat transfer. These techniques can also be combined.

lifting procedures in Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Nederlands Tijdschrift Voor Tandheelkunde, 2014Co-Authors: J Jansma, R H Schepers, Arjan VissinkAbstract:A prominent characteristic of the aging face is the descent of skin and subcutaneous tissues. In order to reduce this and create a more youthful appearance, several lifting procedures can be employed. In the forehead and eyebrow region the transblepharoplastic brow lift, the direct brow lift, the temporal brow lift, the coronal brow lift and the endoscopic brow lift can be distinguished. For the mid-face, the facelift is known to be an effective treatment for aging characteristics. Classic facelifts can be divided into the one layer-, two layer- and the deep plane facelift. Nowadays the minimal access cranial suspension lift is popular. The lifting capacity of this lift may be less, but the risk of complications is lower and the result is often more natural. A neck lift improves the chin-neck angle and a submental liposuction/lipectomy can contribute to this. Complications in lifting procedures are rare. Hematoma is the most frequent complication. Skin necrosis of the wound edges and laceration of the end branches of the Facial nerve can also occur. There is a tendency towards minimally invasive procedures with smaller risk of complications and shorter recovery periods.

Facial ageing and Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Nederlands Tijdschrift Voor Tandheelkunde, 2014Co-Authors: J Jansma, R H Schepers, G W C Jaspers, Arjan VissinkAbstract:The aim of Cosmetic Facial Surgery is to enhance Facial beauty by reducing the effects of ageing or by beautifying certain aspects of the face. The face can be subdivided anatomically into the skin, the fat compartments, the ligaments (the links between the skin and the underlying Facial skeleton), the superficial musculoaponeurotic system and the masticatory and mimic musculature. As a result of the influence of gravity and ageing, changes which progress according to a fixed pattern take place at all levels of the soft tissue of the face. The supporting Facial skeleton also reduces in volume in a characteristic manner. A thorough knowledge of the Facial anatomy and the ageing process is essential for safe, effective and predicable Facial rejuvenating Surgery. The dentist generally has a long-lasting relationship with his patients and therefore may play an important role in advising patients with respect to the (im)possibilities of Cosmetic Facial Surgery.
