- Rhytidectomy (facelift surgery) has a high risk of bleeding, and tranexamic acid (TXA) is studied as a way to reduce complications like hematoma and bleeding during this procedure.
- This systematic review analyzed the effects of TXA administered in different ways on reducing blood loss, edema, and bruising in facelift surgeries.
- Out of 388 patients studied, TXA significantly decreased the occurrence of minor hematoma and reduced postoperative drainage, while showing no substantial difference in major hematoma risk or complications between TXA and control groups.
