The socket shield technique and subepithelial connective tissue graft following immediate implant placement with provisionalization had been advocated for peri-implant facial contour and gingival architecture preservation. This case report used three-dimensional volumetric analysis to longitudinally assess the peri-implant facial contour change before and after these procedures. The results demonstrated comparable and acceptable preservation of peri-implant facial contour between the two procedures after 2 years of function.

Shoulder Aesthetics: A Novel Synergy of Hyaluronic Acid Fillers and Neuromodulators.

Medical Research Inc., Wonju, Korea.
The pursuit of aesthetically pleasing shoulder contours, particularly those characterised by a sharp, angular definition, has gained significant traction in Southeast Asia. Traditionally, neuromodulators have been used to achieve these results by inducing muscle atrophy, particularly in the trapezius muscles. However, this approach can carry potential risks, such as compromised muscle function and spinal instability.

Background: The neck, and specifically the prominence of the thyroid cartilage, can be considered a marker of male gender, which is often unwanted by transgender women. Chondrolaryngoplasty is traditionally performed using an open transcervical approach, which, while effective, leaves visible scars that can compromise patient satisfaction. Recent advancements, such as the transoral endoscopic vestibular approach (TOEVA), have emerged as promising alternatives, eliminating external scars and improving esthetic outcomes.

Background: Facial sunken deformities, congenital or acquired, are common in clinical practice for the reduction of soft or hard tissues. In clinical practice, filler injection and tissue transplantation are often used to improve facial contour. Among these, autologous fat grafting for treating facial contour defects is most common in clinical practice.

In cases where oral cancer spreads toward the maxillary tubercle, surgery may extend to the pterygopalatine fossa. There are 2 main extraoral approaches: anterior and lateral. Previously, we introduced a modified lateral approach with a mouth corner incision from the lower lip, that preserves the mental and marginal mandibular nerves.

The aim of this study is to investigate the use of the temporoparietal fascial flap (TPFF) in the repair of tissue defects in the head and neck region. TPFF is a preferred method among surgeons due to its thin and flexible structure and its strong vascular structure supplied by the superficial temporal artery. In the study, the operations performed on a total of 21 patients and the results of these operations were analyzed.
