The Role of Nasal Fat Preservation in Upper Lid Surgery and Assessment With the Face-Q Questionnaire: Innovations in Upper Blepharoplasty.

Background: Upper blepharoplasty is a common procedure in aesthetic plastic surgery. Numerous techniques focus on removing excessive tissues, including skin, muscle, and fat. However, aging insights suggest tissues mainly undergo depletion rather than increase.

Fat Grafting and Prepectoral Prosthetic Reconstruction with Polyurethane-Covered Implants: Protective Role against Adjuvant Radiotherapy.

Breast cancer treatment increasingly incorporates immediate prepectoral prosthetic reconstruction after conservative mastectomy, including nipple-sparing (NSMs) and skin-sparing mastectomies (SSMs). Although recent data from the literature show that postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) after prepectoral reconstruction presents good clinical results, with reduction in capsular contracture and implant migration, compared to the traditional submuscular technique, these patients have higher rates of long-term complications when compared with nonradiated patients. This study evaluates the protective effects of autologous fat grafting to reduce long-term radiotherapy-induced complications in breast cancer patients submitted for prepectoral reconstruction with polyurethane-covered (PU) implants.
