A comparison of the efficacy of autologous fibrin glue/platelet-poor plasma versus suction drainage in preventing hematoma and seroma in rhytidectomy: A randomized, double-blind, controlled study.

Background: One of the most feared complications of rhytidectomy is the formation of hematoma and seroma, which may harm patients' health and compromise the surgical outcome.

Objective: To compare the efficacy of autologous fibrin glue/platelet-poor plasma versus suction drainage in preventing surgical complications such as hematoma and seroma following rhytidectomy procedures.

Methods: A prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled study was conducted to compare the efficacy of the two interventions.
