ABSTRACT

Cútis laxa é uma rara doença do tecido conectivo caracterizada pela disfunção das fibras elásticas. Indivíduos acometidos por essa enfermidade queixam-se de sua aparência envelhecida. Os tratamentos se baseiam no uso de cosméticos ou em técnicas cirúrgicas, sendo a cirurgia plástica uma ferramenta de extrema relevância. A blefaroplastia tem o objetivo de melhorar a aparência senil e proporcionar rejuvenescimento na área ao redor dos olhos, fazendo com que o olhar pareça mais descansado e alerta. Trata-se de um estudo observacional retrospectivo utilizando os dados do prontuário. Relato do Caso: Paciente do sexo feminino, 17 anos, encaminhada ao serviço de Cirurgia Plástica do Hospital Universitário Walter Cantídio, Fortaleza- CE, para tratamento devido à insatisfação com a sua aparência. Submetida a uma blefaroplastia superior e inferior associada a cantopexia sem cantotomia. No período pós-operatório, foi observado resultado satisfatório para a cirurgia proposta e adequada correção das alterações existentes. Conclusão: Observa-se a importância da correção cirúrgica facial nos casos de cútis laxa, ressaltando a relevância da aplicação de técnicas cirúrgicas adequadas e o aprimoramento das mesmas nesse perfil de paciente.


Cutis laxa is a rare connective tissue disease characterized by dysfunction of elastic fibers. Individuals affected by this disease complain about their aged appearance. Treatments are based on the use of cosmetics or surgical techniques, with plastic surgery being an extremely relevant tool. Blepharoplasty aims to improve the senile appearance and provide rejuvenation in the area around the eyes, making the look appear more rested and alert. This is a retrospective observational study using medical record data. Case Report: A female patient, 17 years old, was referred to the Plastic Surgery Service of the Walter Cantídio University Hospital, Fortaleza-CE, for treatment due to dissatisfaction with her appearance. She underwent upper and lower blepharoplasty associated with canthopexy without canthotomy. In the postoperative period, a satisfactory result was observed for the proposed surgery and adequate correction of existing changes. Conclusion: The importance of facial surgical correction in cases of lax skin is observed, highlighting the relevance of applying appropriate surgical techniques and improving them in this patient profile.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: O mercado de procedimento estéticos cresce exponencialmente no Brasil. Tal crescimento tem despertado o interesse de várias categorias profissionais. A decisão de praticar no setor deve considerar as oportunidades de mercado da localidade na qual se pretende atuar. Entretanto, a área carece de análises comparativas documentando prováveis diferenças regionais no país. O objetivo do estudo é descrever as diferenças de mercado em procedimentos estéticos entre os estados e regiões brasileiras. Um índice de potencial consumo de cosmiatria (IPCC) é calculado para tal análise comparativa. Método: Estudo transversal envolvendo prestadores de procedimentos estéticos não cirúrgicos no Brasil. Buscas no Google®-Google Maps® foram conduzidas usando termoschave e entrevistas telefônicas realizadas para obter informações sobre categorias profissionais, tipo de provedores e serviços oferecidos. Valores preditivos positivos foram obtidos para todas as estratégias de busca e usados para estimar o número total de provedores. O tamanho da população e a renda per capita foram considerados para o cálculo dos IPCCs para os estados brasileiros. Resultados: São Paulo, Minas Gerais e Rio de Janeiro apresentaram os maiores IPCCs, sendo 524, 210 e 180, respectivamente. Roraima teve um IPCC de 14, o mais baixo do país. A Região Sudeste apresentou, em média, o maior IPCC (242) entre todas as regiões brasileiras. Conclusão: Considerando o tamanho da população e a renda, a Região Sudeste apresenta as maiores oportunidades de mercado em procedimentos estéticos não cirúrgicos no Brasil. Nossos achados podem ser de interesse para profissionais de saúde e investidores que atuam ou pretendem atuar no setor.


Introduction: The aesthetic procedure market is growing exponentially in Brazil. This growth has aroused the interest of several professional categories. The decision to practice in the sector must consider the market opportunities in the location in which you intend to operate. However, the area lacks comparative analyses documenting probable regional differences in the country. The objective of the study is to describe market differences in aesthetic procedures between Brazilian states and regions. An index of potential cosmetic consumption (IPCC) is calculated for such a comparative analysis. Method: Cross-sectional study involving providers of nonsurgical aesthetic procedures in Brazil. Searches on Google Maps® were conducted using key terms, and telephone interviews were conducted to obtain information on professional categories, types of providers, and services offered. Positive predictive values were obtained for all search strategies and used to estimate the total number of providers. Population size and per capita income were considered to calculate the IPCCs for Brazilian states. Results: São Paulo, Minas Gerais, and Rio de Janeiro presented the highest IPCCs, being 524, 210, and 180, respectively. Roraima had an IPCC of 14, the lowest in the country. The Southeast Region presented, on average, the highest IPCC (242) among all Brazilian regions. Conclusion: Considering population size and income, the Southeast Region presents the greatest market opportunities for nonsurgical aesthetic procedures in Brazil. Our findings may be of interest to healthcare professionals and investors who work or intend to work in the sector.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: O envelhecimento facial é um processo gradual, complexo e multifatorial. É o resultado de mudanças na qualidade, volume e posicionamento dos tecidos. Cirurgiões plásticos têm modificado sua abordagem na cirurgia do rejuvenescimento facial optando pelo plano subaponeurótico (SMAS). O objetivo deste estudo é analisar 100 casos de pacientes operados pela técnica de SMAS profundo, avaliando sua aplicabilidade e eficácia. Método: Foram avaliados 100 pacientes, submetidos a cirurgia plástica facial pela técnica de SMAS profundo - "Deep Smas", e acompanhados por 6 meses. Observou-se a satisfação dos pacientes, número de complicações, número de reoperações, riscos e vantagens da técnica. Resultados: Foram operados 100 pacientes, num período de 3 anos. A idade variou de 41 a 79 anos, sendo 95% sexo feminino. As complicações foram 8 casos (8%) de lesões de ramos do nervo facial, sendo: 4 casos lesão do zigomático, 3 casos de lesão do mandibular e 1 caso de lesão do bucal; houve 1 caso (1%) de queloide retroauricular; 1 caso (1%) de hematoma. Em relação às revisões cirúrgicas, houve 8 casos (8%) de complementação cirúrgica por insatisfação das pacientes. Houve 15% de lesões nervosas entre a 1ª e a 40ª cirurgia, 5% entre a 41ª e a 80ª, e nenhuma lesão entre o 81º e o 100º paciente. Conclusão: O lifting facial profundo ou subSMAS mostrou ser efetivo, proporcionando bons resultados estéticos. Apresenta baixa taxa de recidiva e baixa taxa de morbidade, porém, necessita de uma longa curva de aprendizagem.


Introduction: Facial aging is a gradual, complex, and multifactorial process. It is the result of changes in the quality, volume, and positioning of tissues. Plastic surgeons have modified their approach to facial rejuvenation surgery, opting for the subaponeurotic plane (SMAS). The objective of this study is to analyze 100 cases of patients operated on using the deep SMAS technique, evaluating its applicability and effectiveness. Method: 100 patients were evaluated, undergoing facial plastic surgery using the deep SMAS technique - "Deep Smas", and followed up for 6 months. Patient satisfaction, number of complications, number of reoperations, risks, and advantages of the technique were observed. Results: 100 patients were operated on over 3 years. Age ranged from 41 to 79 years, with 95% being female. The complications were 8 cases (8%) of injuries to branches of the facial nerve, of which 4 cases of zygomatic injury, 3 cases of mandibular injury, and 1 case of buccal injury; there was 1 case (1%) of post-auricular keloid; 1 case (1%) of hematoma. Regarding surgical revisions, there were 8 cases (8%) of surgical completion due to patient dissatisfaction. There were 15% of nerve injuries between the 1st and 40th surgery, 5% between the 41st and 80th, and no injuries between the 81st and 100th patient. Conclusion: Deep facial lifting or subSMAS has proven to be effective, providing good aesthetic results. It has a low recurrence rate and low morbidity rate; however, it requires a long learning curve.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: El lifting cervicofacial es una técnica que busca devolver una apariencia juvenil y descansada al rostro del paciente. Originalmente, esta técnica se limitaba solamente a una disección en el plano cutáneo. El lifting de plano profundo o deep plane facelft, en cambio, utiliza un plano de disección anatómico por debajo del sistema musculoaponeurótico superficial (SMAS), permitiendo la lisis de los ligamentos de retención faciales y la máxima movilización de los tejidos superficiales, confiriéndole ventajas frente a otras técnicas. Se describe la técnica y se presenta nuestra experiencia. Material y Método: Serie de casos retrospectiva de pacientes sometidos a lifting de plano profundo en nuestro centro. Se describe la técnica quirúrgica, datos demográficos, antecedentes médico quirúrgicos y complicaciones post-operatorias. Resultados: Entre enero de 2021 y junio de 2023 se operaron 18 pacientes, todos de sexo femenino con un promedio de edad de 58,7 años. Solo 2 pacientes presentaron complicaciones (hematoma). Ningún paciente presentó lesión del nervio facial transitoria o permanente. Ningún paciente necesitó re-operación. Discusión y conclusión: La técnica de lifting de plano profundo o deep plane facelft es un método seguro y efectivo para tratar los signos del envejecimiento facial. Las complicaciones descritas por nuestro grupo son acordes a la literatura.


Aim: The facelift is a technique that aims to restore a more youthful and rested appearance to the aging face. Originally it was limited to a skin dissection only. The deep plane facelift, on the other hand, uses an anatomical dissection plane below the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS), allowing lysis of the facial retention ligaments and maximum mobilization of superficial tissues, with better outcomes than other techniques. The technique is described and our experience is presented. Material and Method: Retrospective case series of patients undergoing deep plane facelift. The surgical technique, demographic data, surgical medical history, and postoperative complications are described. Results: Between January 2021 and June 2023, 18 patients were operated, all female with an average age of 58,7 years old. Only 2 patients presented complications (hematoma). No patient presented facial nerve injury. No patient required re-operation. Discussion and Conclusion: The deep plane facelift is a safe and effective method to treat the signs of the aging face. The complications described are consistent with the literature.

ABSTRACT

Queloides e cicatrizes hipertróficas são lesões formadas a partir da resposta fibroproliferativa anormal ao processo de cicatrização de feridas, gerando uma proliferação excessiva do colágeno nas lesões. Geralmente, predominam em pacientes do sexo feminino e em indivíduos com tons de pele mais escuros. A abordagem terapêutica dessas cicatrizes pode ser indicada de acordo com alguns critérios, como déficit funcional, tamanho e tempo de cicatrização da ferida. Nesse sentido, o presente estudo objetivou realizar uma revisão descritiva da literatura, buscando as evidências de tratamento dos últimos cinco anos neste tema. A revisão foi realizada com base no guideline PRISMA, utilizando as bases de dados PubMed, LILACS, Cochrane Library, SCOPUS, Web of Science e Grey Literature, entre os anos de 2018 e 2022. Foram encontrados 740 artigos, dos quais 16 ensaios clínicos randomizados foram selecionados. Foi evidenciado que manejo do queloide apresenta abordagem multimodal, não havendo um padrão-ouro de tratamento, com taxa de recorrência baixa. Além disso, a terapia combinada de diferentes agentes pareceu ser superior ao uso isolado de métodos terapêuticos no tratamento dessas lesões.


Keloids and hypertrophic scars are lesions formed from the abnormal fibroproliferative response to the wound healing process, generating excessive collagen proliferation in the lesions. They generally predominate in female patients and individuals with darker skin tones. The therapeutic approach to these scars can be indicated according to criteria such as functional deficit, size, and wound healing time. In this sense, the present study aimed to conduct a descriptive review of the literature, seeking evidence of treatment over the last five years. The review was carried out based on the PRISMA guideline, using the databases PubMed, LILACS, Cochrane Library, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and Grey Literature between 2018 and 2022. Seven hundred forty articles were found, of which 16 randomized clinical trials were selected. It was demonstrated that keloid management presents a multimodal approach, with no gold standard of treatment with a low recurrence rate. Furthermore, combined therapy with different agents appeared superior to the isolated therapeutic methods in treating these injuries.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: As técnicas microcirúrgicas caracterizam-se pela aplicação de manobras e suturas em estruturas milimétricas com o auxílio de lentes de aumento. São técnicas complexas, utilizadas em diversas especialidades médicas, que demandam grande habilidade e treinamento antes da aplicação em humanos. O objetivo é desenvolver um modelo de baixo custo e alta fidelidade, para o treinamento de técnicas de microcirurgia, utilizando um fragmento de patch de pericárdio bovino. Método: São utilizados para a confecção deste modelo segmentos remanescentes de uma placa de pericárdio bovino, previamente utilizado em reparos vasculares. O material é recortado em duas partes simétricas e suas extremidades fixadas aos campos cirúrgicos, com auxílio de clamps. A borda superior de cada uma das partes é, então, suturada à borda inferior com fio de Prolene 8-0, de maneira que cada uma forme uma estrutura tubular. Posteriormente, as extremidades tubulares livres passam pela dissecção da camada adventícia e são suturadas entre si, mimetizando uma anastomose vascular término-terminal. Resultados: Com o modelo, simulam-se os mesmos inconvenientes/ dificuldades presentes nas suturas vasculares humanas, como a delaminação de camadas, excesso da camada adventícia e risco de sutura inadvertida da parede posterior, provando sua utilidade na aquisição de habilidades microcirúrgicas básicas, sem necessidade de manipulação de tecidos humanos ou animais. A prática neste modelo pode ocorrer dentro do próprio centro cirúrgico e emprega materiais que seriam descartados. Conclusão: A utilização do pericárdio bovino para confecção de suturas milimétricas mimetiza o tecido vascular humano e é um procedimento de baixo custo, que possibilita o treinamento de habilidades microcirúrgicas.


Introduction: Microsurgical techniques are characterized by the application of maneuvers and sutures to millimetric structures with the aid of magnifying lenses. These are complex techniques, used in various medical specialties, which require great skill and training before applying them to humans. The objective is to develop a lowcost and high-fidelity model for training microsurgery techniques using a fragment of bovine pericardium patch. Method: Remaining segments of a bovine pericardium plate, previously used in vascular repairs, are used to create this model. The material is cut into two symmetrical parts, and its ends are fixed to the surgical drapes with the aid of clamps. The upper edge of each part is then sutured to the lower edge with 8-0 Prolene thread so that each one forms a tubular structure. Subsequently, the free tubular ends undergo dissection of the adventitial layer and are sutured together, mimicking an end-to-end vascular anastomosis. Results: With the model, the same inconveniences/ difficulties present in human vascular sutures are simulated, such as delamination of layers, excess of the adventitial layer, and risk of inadvertent suturing of the posterior wall, proving its usefulness in the acquisition of basic microsurgical skills, without need to manipulate human or animal tissues. Practice in this model can take place within the surgical center itself and uses materials that would otherwise be discarded. Conclusion: The use of bovine pericardium to create millimetric sutures mimics human vascular tissue and is a low-cost procedure that allows the training of microsurgical skills.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: Os arcos branquiais são os precursores embriológicos da face, pescoço e faringe. As anomalias dos arcos branquiais são a segunda lesão congênita mais comum de cabeça e pescoço em crianças. Entre essas anomalias, estão os cistos de arcos branquiais (BCC), que surgem devido a uma incorreta obliteração das fendas branquiais, ainda no período embrionário. Os BCC podem ser assintomáticos, apenas percebidos incidentalmente, e não se manifestar até a idade adulta. Resultados: Anomalias do segundo arco branquial devem ser consideradas como um dos possíveis diagnósticos diferenciais de massas cervicais, especialmente as que se manifestam como um abaulamento em região lateral do pescoço. Os BCC são formações de revestimento epitelial, sem aberturas externas. Após seu diagnóstico, o tratamento é cirúrgico, usualmente por meio de uma incisão cervical transversa e cuidadosa dissecação das estruturas, com o objetivo de extirpar toda a lesão. Conclusão: O método descrito, de excisão da lesão, por meio de incisão transversa em região cervical, dissecção tecidual por planos e ressecção de massa cística, é uma opção para o tratamento dessa deformidade, com adequado resultado estético e boa reprodutibilidade.


Introduction: The branchial arches are the embryological precursors of the face, neck, and pharynx. Branchial arch anomalies are the second most common congenital head and neck lesions in children. Among these anomalies are branchial arch cysts (BCC), which arise due to incorrect obliteration of the branchial slits, still in the embryonic period. BCCs may be asymptomatic, only noticed incidentally, and not manifest until adulthood. Results: Anomalies of the second branchial arch should be considered as one of the possible differential diagnoses of neck masses, especially those that manifest as a bulge in the lateral region of the neck. BCCs are epithelial lining formations without external openings. After diagnosis, treatment is surgical, usually through a transverse cervical incision and careful dissection of the structures, with the aim of extirpating the entire lesion. Conclusion: The method described of excision of the lesion through a transverse incision in the cervical region, tissue dissection in planes, and resection of the cystic mass is an option for the treatment of this deformity, with adequate aesthetic results and good reproducibility.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: As intervenções cirúrgicas pós-bariátricas vêm se tornando cada vez mais frequentes e englobam a abdominoplastia, a cirurgia plástica interna da coxa, a braquioplastia e a mastopexia. Porém, devido ao caráter disabsortivo e restritivo do paciente bariátrico, esse estudo tem como objetivo apresentar as complicações advindas de procedimentos estéticos realizados nestes pacientes, expondo os fatores de risco mais associados às sequelas e levantando opções para um melhor desfecho. Método: Foi realizada uma revisão integrativa da literatura, de caráter qualitativo, segundo a pergunta norteadora: "Quais as principais complicações em cirurgias plásticas realizadas em pacientes bariatricados?". A busca foi realizada nas plataformas Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde (BVS) e PubMed. Os artigos incluídos no estudo foram analisados pelo método de conteúdo. Resultados: No total foram incluídos 6 artigos, nos quais observou-se que as principais complicações de cirurgias de contorno corporal, tais como a abdominoplastia e a braquioplastia, em pacientes bariatricados foram, principalmente, deiscência de feridas, seromas e hematomas, complicações, essas, relacionadas principalmente ao índice de massa corporal (IMC) do paciente, às suas comorbidades e ao tabagismo. Conclusão: Percebe-se, hoje, uma maior demanda pelas cirurgias plásticas reparadoras pósbariátrica, principalmente pela abdominoplastia. Consequentemente, houve, também, um aumento no número de complicações intraoperatórias, destacando-se o seroma e a deiscência de feridas. Para amenizá-las, a melhor solução é trabalhar no controle de fatores de risco pré-operatórios do paciente, tais como o IMC elevado e o tabagismo, além de comorbidades que levam à deficiência de cicatrização.


Introduction: Post-bariatric surgical interventions have become increasingly frequent, including abdominoplasty, inner thigh plastic surgery, brachioplasty, and mastopexy. However, due to bariatric patients' malabsorptive and restrictive nature, this study aims to present complications arising from aesthetic procedures performed on these patients, exposing the risk factors most associated with sequelae and raising options for a better outcome. Method: An integrative qualitative literature review was carried out according to the guiding question: "What are the main complications in plastic surgeries performed on bariatric patients?". The search was conducted on the Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde (BVS) and PubMed platforms. The articles included in the study were analyzed using the content method. Results: In total, 6 articles were included, in which it was observed that the main complications of body contouring surgeries, such as abdominoplasty and brachioplasty, in bariatric patients were mainly wound dehiscence, seromas and hematomas, complications, these, mainly related to the patient's body mass index (BMI), their comorbidities and smoking. Conclusion: Today, there is a greater demand for post-bariatric reconstructive plastic surgery, especially abdominoplasty. Consequently, there was also an increase in intraoperative complications, notably seroma and wound dehiscence. To alleviate them, the best solution is to work on controlling the patient's preoperative risk factors, such as high BMI and smoking, as well as comorbidities that lead to poor healing.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUÇÃO: Atualmente a cirurgia plástica tornou-se uma alternativa para as mulheres conquistarem a beleza ideal. As mudanças corporais objetivam alterar ou melhorar a autoestima, eliminando aquilo que é indesejável ou que não é socialmente aceito. Sendo o ideal de beleza atravessado pela mídia e cultuado pela sociedade, explorar a percepção da cirurgia plástica na autoestima de mulheres pode auxiliar a compreensão do número expressivo de mulheres submetidas aos procedimentos estéticos. OBJETIVO: Analisar a percepção de autoestima no pré e pós-operatório de mulheres submetidas a cirurgia plástica estética. MÉTODO: Trata-se de um estudo transversal, qualitativo e exploratório, com 10 mulheres no ano de 2022; a coleta ocorreu em duas etapas, pré e pós cirurgia, nas duas etapas utilizou-se entrevista semiaberta e a escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg (1965), a análise dos dados foi a partir da análise de conteúdo de Bardin (2011). RESULTADOS: Apontam não haver evidências de conteúdo de baixa autoestima no pré e pós ­ cirúrgico, e sim, na melhora da autoestima, sugerindo a ligação entre procedimento cirúrgico estético e a autoexigência aos padrões socioculturais de beleza, sendo o procedimento cirúrgico recurso rápido, eficiente e de fácil acesso, proporcionando como consequência secundária melhora na qualidade. CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS: A cirurgia plástica promove a melhora na percepção da autoestima, porém não foi o fator determinante para a submissão ao procedimento cirúrgico das participantes, apontando assim, para a necessidade de estudos sobre outros fatores que motivam a submissão em procedimentos estéticos, como as mídias sociais.


| INTRODUCTION: Nowadays, plastic surgery has become an alternative for women to achieve their ideal beauty. Body changes aim to alter or improve self-esteem by eliminating what is undesirable or socially unacceptable. The ideal of beauty is passed down through the media and worshipped by society. Exploring the perception of plastic surgery on women's self-esteem can help us understand the significant number of women who undergo cosmetic procedures. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the perception of self-esteem in the pre- and postoperative periods of women who have undergone cosmetic surgery. METHOD: This is a cross-sectional, qualitative, and exploratory study, with 10 women in 2022; the collection took place in two stages, pre- and post-surgery, in both stages a semi-open interview and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem scale (1965) were used, the data analysis was based on Bardin's content analysis (2011). RESULTS: Indicate that there is no evidence of low self-esteem content in the pre- and post-surgery, but rather, in the improvement of self-esteem, suggesting the link between aesthetic surgical procedure and self-demand to sociocultural standards of beauty, with the surgical procedure being a quick, efficient resource and easily accessible, providing a secondary consequence of improving quality. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: Plastic surgery promotes an improvement in the perception of self-esteem, however, it was not the determining factor in the participants' submission to the surgical procedure, thus pointing to the need for studies on other factors that motivate submission to aesthetic procedures, such as social media.


INTRODUCCIÓN: En la actualidad, la cirugía plástica se ha convertido en una alternativa para que las mujeres alcancen su belleza ideal. Los cambios corporales pretenden alterar o mejorar la autoestima eliminando lo que es indeseable o socialmente inaceptable. El ideal de belleza se transmite a través de los medios de comunicación y es cultivado por la sociedad. Explorar la percepción de la cirugía plástica sobre la autoestima de las mujeres puede ayudarnos a comprender el importante número de mujeres que se someten a procedimientos estéticos. OBJETIVO: Analizar la percepción de la autoestima en los periodos pre y postoperatorio de las mujeres que se han sometido a cirugía estética. MÉTODO: Se trata de un estudio transversal, cualitativo y exploratorio, con 10 mujeres en 2022; la recogida se realizó en dos etapas, pre y postoperatoria, en ambas etapas se utilizó una entrevista semiabierta y la escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg (1965), los datos se analizaron mediante el análisis de contenido de Bardin (2011). RESULTADOS: Indican que no hay evidencia de baja autoestima en el pre y postoperatorio, sino más bien una mejora en la autoestima, sugiriendo el vínculo entre el procedimiento quirúrgico estético y la autoexigencia de estándares socioculturales de belleza, siendo el procedimiento quirúrgico un recurso rápido, eficiente y de fácil acceso, redundando en una mejora de la calidad. CONSIDERACIONES FINALES: La cirugía plástica promueve una mejora en la percepción de la autoestima, sin embargo, no fue el factor determinante en el sometimiento de los participantes al procedimiento quirúrgico, apuntando así la necesidad de estudios sobre otros factores que motivan el sometimiento a los procedimientos estéticos, como las redes sociales.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La profundización de los surcos nasolabiales es uno de los signos más tempranos del envejecimiento natural del ser humano y puede ser atenuado con el empleo de materiales de relleno, entre ellos el injerto de grasa autóloga. Objetivo: Describir los resultados de la infiltración de grasa autóloga en el surco nasolabial para el rejuvenecimiento facial. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo, de corte longitudinal y prospectivo, para describir la infiltración de grasa autóloga en el surco nasolabial para el rejuvenecimiento facial en 40 pacientes. Los pacientes se siguieron durante seis meses de forma trimestral (un mes, tres meses y seis meses) y se evaluaron las variables: tiempo de recuperación, aparición de complicaciones, grado de satisfacción de los pacientes y resultados estéticos. Resultados: La edad media fue de 47 años, con predominio del sexo femenino. El 92 % de los pacientes se recuperó en menos de 10 días, con la aparición de seis complicaciones. La disminución del defecto posterior al procedimiento fue significativa respecto al momento inicial; sin embargo, con el tiempo (tres a seis meses) el defecto en el surco nasolabial reapareció en algunos pacientes. El grado de satisfacción de los pacientes vario entre un 95 % (un mes) a un 90 % a los seis meses y los resultados estéticos catalogados como buenos disminuyeron de un 90 % (un mes) a un 65 % (seis meses). Conclusiones: Se demostró que el injerto de grasa autóloga en el surco nasolabial es un procedimiento con resultados estéticos buenos, sin embargo, este disminuye en los meses posteriores, lo que puede estar relacionado con la reabsorción del injerto graso.


Introduction: The deepening of the nasolabial folds is one of the earliest signs of natural aging in humans and can be mitigated with the use of filler materials, including autologous fat grafting. Objective: To describe the results of autologous fat infiltration in the nasolabial fold for facial rejuvenation. Methods: An observational, descriptive, longitudinal and prospective study to describe the infiltration of autologous fat in the nasolabial fold for facial rejuvenation was carried out in 40 patients. The patients were followed up for 6 months: one month (1M), three months (3M) and six months (6M) and the evaluated variables were: recovery time, appearance of complications, degree of patient satisfaction and aesthetic results. Results: The average age was 47 years, with a female prevalence. 92% of patients recovered in less than 10 days, with the only appearance of six complications. The decrease in the defect after the procedure was significant compared to the initial moment; however, over time (3-6M) the defect in the nasolabial fold reappeared in some patients. The degree of patient satisfaction varied between 95% (1M) to 90% at 6M and the aesthetic results classified as good decreased from 90% (1M) to 65% (6M). Conclusions: It was shown that autologous fat grafting in the nasolabial fold is a procedure with good aesthetic results, however it decreases in subsequent months, which may be related to the reabsorption of the fat graft.

ABSTRACT

A posição do Brasil como um dos maiores consumidores de cirurgia plástica no mundo sinaliza a importância da imagem corporal na cultura nacional. O discurso do corpo em forma e saudável, com frequência associado à imagem de celebridades, remete à ideia de um padrão despótico de beleza, sobretudo a feminina, que privilegia a magreza e a juventude. A proliferação de procedimentos estéticos atinge de formas muito diferentes todas as camadas sociais e tem reflexos em outras áreas, como no campo da alimentação. Na linha tênue entre saúde e beleza, são poucos os trabalhos que investigaram questões nutricionais e práticas alimentares na área de cirurgia plástica no país, principalmente com um olhar socioantropológico, capaz de apreender as subjetividades envolvidas no processo. Diante desse contexto, essa tese teve como objetivo compreender a experiência das tentativas de emagrecimento de mulheres que buscam intervenção cirúrgica estética na Santa Casa de Misericórdia do Rio de Janeiro (SCM-RJ) e foram encaminhadas ao Serviço de Nutrição da enfermaria 38 da referida Instituição. Para tal investigação, foram realizadas 16 entrevistas semiestruturadas com mulheres que passaram em algum momento pelo serviço entre 2017 e 2022. Aliás, ainda que o foco da pesquisa seja qualitativo, foi delineado um panorama sociodemográfico das 2.448 pacientes atendidas entre 2003 e 2020 para contextualizar o campo investigado. Através da análise de conteúdo de suas narrativas, busquei capturar valores, ideias e crenças envolvidos na relação dessas mulheres com o corpo e a comida em contraposição à necessidade de mudanças de hábitos imposta pelo desafio do emagrecimento. Isso fez emergir questões muitas vezes invisibilizadas na sociedade e pouco consideradas nas abordagens nutricionais, como: o incômodo corporal feminino diante de uma cultura estética moralizadora que transforma o emagrecimento em sofrimento; o patrulhamento do corpo feminino, chancelado pelo discurso midiático e científico e, muitas vezes, pelos profissionais de saúde; os desafios que as mulheres enfrentam em suas mudanças alimentares assim como o reflexo destas mudanças em suas vidas. Neste processo, as interlocutoras despertaram a atenção para seu corpo e para a comida, construindo o que denominei de redescoberta alimentar. Além disso, surgiram como resultados uma bricolagem de saberes e sabores que evidenciou a capacidade de agência dessas mulheres e a possibilidade da construção de um cuidado que está para além de dietas e cirurgias, ainda que o emagrecimento seja um sofrimento crônico em suas vidas.

Brazil's position as one of the largest consumers of plastic surgery in the world signals the importance of body image in national culture. The discourse of a fit and healthy body, often associated with celebrity images, points to the idea of a despotic standard of beauty, particularly for women, which emphasizes thinness and youth. The proliferation of aesthetic procedures affects various social strata in different ways and has repercussions in other areas such as the field of nutrition. In the fine line between health and beauty, few studies have investigated nutritional and dietary issues in the field of plastic surgery in Brazil, especially from a socio-anthropological perspective capable of grasping the subjectivities involved in the process. In light of this context, this thesis aimed to understand the experiences of weight loss attempts by women seeking cosmetic surgery referred to the Nutrition Service of Ward 38 of the Santa Casa de Misericordia do Rio de Janeiro (SCM-RJ). For this investigation, 16 semi-structured interviews were conducted, with women who had attended the service at some point between 2017 and 2022. Additionally, although the focus of the research is qualitative, a socio-demographic overview of the 2,448 patients attended to between 2003 and 2020 was outlined, to contextualize the investigated field. Through the content analysis of their narratives, I aimed to capture values, ideas and beliefs involved in these women's relationship with their bodies and food, in contrast to the need for habit changes imposed by the challenge of weight loss. This brought up issues often invisible in society and little considered in nutritional approaches, such as female body discomfort in the face of a moralizing aesthetic culture that turns weight loss into suffering; the patrolling of the female body, endorsed by media and scientific discourse and often by healthcare professionals; the challenges women face in their dietary changes, as well as the reflection of these changes in their lives. In this process, they gave attention to their bodies and food, creating what I termed "nutritional rediscovery". Additionally, a bricolage of knowledge and flavors emerged as a result that highlighted the agency of these women, and the possibility of constructing care beyond diets and surgeries even though weight loss remains a chronic struggle in their lives.

La posición de Brasil como uno de los mayores consumidores de cirugía plástica del mundo señala la importancia de la imagen corporal en la cultura nacional. El discurso de un cuerpo en forma y saludable, a menudo asociado a la imagen de las celebridades, remite a la idea de un canon despótico de belleza, especialmente de la belleza femenina, que privilegia la delgadez y la juventud. La proliferación de procedimientos estéticos afecta de formas muy distintas a todos los estratos sociales y repercute en otros ámbitos, como en el campo de la alimentación. En la tenue distinción entre salud y belleza, son pocos los trabajos que han investigado cuestiones nutricionales y prácticas dietéticas en el área de la cirugía plástica en el país, principalmente bajo una perspectiva socioantropológica, capaz de aprehender las subjetividades involucradas en el proceso. Frente a ese contexto, esta tesis tuvo como objetivo comprender la experiencia de intentos de pérdida de peso de mujeres que buscan intervención quirúrgica estética en la Santa Casa de Misericórdia do Rio de Janeiro (SCM-RJ) y fueron remitidas al Serviço de Nutrição de la enfermería 38 de esa institución. En la investigación, fueron realizadas 16 entrevistas semiestructuradas a mujeres que pasaron por el servicio en algún momento entre 2017 y 2022. Aunque el enfoque de la investigación sea cualitativo, se esbozó un panorama sociodemográfico de las 2.448 pacientes atendidas entre 2003 y 2020 para contextualizar el campo investigado. A través del análisis de contenido de sus narrativas, busqué capturar valores, ideas y creencias involucrados en la relación de estas mujeres con el cuerpo y la comida frente a la necesidad de cambiar hábitos impuesta por el desafío de la pérdida de peso. Esto dio lugar a cuestiones muchas veces invisibilizadas en la sociedad y poco consideradas en los abordajes nutricionales, como: el malestar corporal femenino ante una cultura estética moralizante que transforma la pérdida de peso en sufrimiento; el patrullaje del cuerpo femenino, avalado por los discursos mediático y el científico y, muchas veces, también por los profesionales de la salud; los desafíos que enfrentan las mujeres en sus cambios dietéticos, así como el reflejo de esos cambios en sus vidas. En ese proceso, las interlocutoras despertaron la atención hacia sus cuerpos y hacia la comida, construyendo lo que llamé redescubrimiento alimentario. Además, surgió como resultado un bricolaje de saberes y sabores, que muestra la capacidad de agencia de esas mujeres y la posibilidad de construir un cuidado que va más allá de dietas y cirugías, aunque la pérdida de peso sea un sufrimiento crónico en sus vidas.

ABSTRACT

Las características anatómicas de pacientes con nariz mestiza, generalmente, incluyen una nariz aparentemente grande, un dorso convexo con radix bajo y una base nasal ancha. La longitud de la columela y punta nasal se ve disminuida debido a que los cartílagos alares son cortos, débiles y delgados, proporcionando un soporte estructural insuficiente, mala definición y proyección de la punta nasal. La principal dificultad al manejar este tipo de narices es un marco osteocartilaginoso mal estructurado y débil. En los últimos años se han desarrollado técnicas quirúrgicas para mejorar los resultados estéticos y funcionales de la rinoplastía en estos pacientes. Se realizó una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura describiendo las técnicas quirúrgicas utilizadas en este tipo de nariz.


The anatomical characteristics of patients with mestizo nose usually include an apparently large nose, a convex dorsum with a deep radix, and a wide nasal base. The length of the nasal columella and tip is decreased because the alar cartilages are short, weak and thin, providing insufficient structural support, poor definition and nasal tip projection. The main difficulty in managing this type of noses is a poorly structured and weak osteocartilaginous framework. In recent years, surgical techniques have been developed to improve the aesthetic and functional results of rhinoplasty in these patients. A comprehensive literature review was conducted describing the surgical techniques used in this type of nose.

ABSTRACT

Introduction. La récession gingivale (RG) entraine une exposition de la racine et une hypersensibilité. L'étiologie est multifactorielle. Une incidence plus élevée pourrait être observée au niveau des dents avec des phénotypes parodontaux fins ou si des forces orthodontiques ont été appliquées pour déplacer les dents en dehors de leurs processus alvéolaires. La greffe épithélioconjonctive (GEC) est indiquée pour prévenir ou corriger la RG et améliorer l'esthétique. L'objectif de ce rapport de cas est de montrer l'intérêt de la GEC dans la prise en charge des RG en cours de traitement orthodontique multiattaches. Observation clinique et prise en charge. Trois patientes en cours de traitement orthodontique multiattaches depuis 2 ans ont été référées dans la clinique de parodontie de l'Institut d'Odontologie et de Stomatologie de l'Université Cheikh Anta Diop de Dakar, avec des RG de type 2 (RT2) de Cairo sur la 31 et la 41. Un diagnostic parodontal de gingivite induite par le biofilm a été posé pour la première patiente. Les deux autres patientes présentaient une parodontite localisée de stade II et de grade B. La prise en charge a consisté en une thérapeutique initiale suivie d'une réévaluation à 2 mois. L'indication de la GEC a été posée avec comme objectifs de créer une bande de gencive kératinisée avec un approfondissement du vestibule en regard de la 31 et de la 41 et d'obtenir un recouvrement radiculaire. Des résultats satisfaisants ont pu être obtenus. Conclusion. Les rapports entre parodontie et orthodontie Impliquent un diagnostic initial précis et une planification thérapeutique coordonnée des intervenants.


Introduction. Gingival recession (GR) leads to root exposure and hypersensitivity. The etiology is multifactorial. A higher incidence may be observed in teeth with fine periodontal phenotypes, or if orthodontic forces have been applied to move teeth out of their alveolar processes. Free gingival grafting (FGG) is indicated to prevent or correct GR and improve aesthetics. The aim of this case report is to demonstrate the value of ECG in the management of GR during multiattachment orthodontic treatment. Case description and management. Three patients undergoing multiattachment orthodontic treatment for 2 years were referred to the periodontics clinic of the of the Institut d'Odontologie et de Stomatologie at Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar, with Cairo type 2 GR (RT2) on 31 and 41. A periodontal diagnosis of biofilm -induced gingivitis was made for the first patient. The other two patients presented with localized stage II, grade B periodontitis. Management consisted of initial therapy followed by reassessment at 2 months. The indication for FGG was to create a band of keratinized gingiva with deepening of the vestibule opposite 31 and 41, and to achieve root coverage. Satis factory results were obtained. Conclusion. The relationship between periodontics and orthodontics requires accurate initial diagnosis and coordinated treatment planning. .

ABSTRACT

Objective:We aimed to evaluate the feasibility of our rehabilitation program for abdominally based rehabilitation following autologous breast reconstruction, and investigate the changes in physical function and health-related quality of life in the early postoperative period.Methods:Fifteen patients who underwent breast reconstruction between September 2020 and October 2021 were included in this prospective, observational case series.The program composed of prehabilitation and postoperative home-based exercise until 12 weeks post-surgery. Adherence to home exercise program was surveyed using a self-reported workout check list. At postoperative 4th, 8th, 12th, and 24th weeks, a physio-/occupational therapist assessed the following objectives:i) Range of motion, muscle strength, and disability of upper extremity and trunk, ii) Quality of life using EQ-5D questionnaire, and iii) Patients' daily activities.Results:No adverse events were observed, and all patients completed the program. Overall adherence to daily exercise was 71.1%.Physical function of the upper extremities recovered in 8th postoperative week;however, truncal function, quality of life, and daily activities in 12th postoperative week remained lower than those observed preoperatively. Nevertheless, the program appeared useful for many patients, although some reported difficulty in continuing the exercise after returning to work.Conclusion:Rehabilitation programs directed by physio/occupational therapists may play a potentially advantageous role in facilitating a return to baseline function and quality of life during the early postoperative period.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the related factors of perioperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) in inpatients of plastic surgery and to take individualized preventive measures to reduce the incidence of perioperative VTE in clinical practice.Methods:From January 2021 to June 2021, 127 patients without VTE were hospitalized in the Department of Plastic Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, including 72 males and 55 females, aged 18-88 (62.2±14.0) years. The patients were divided into 23 cases in the VTE group and 104 cases in the non-VTE group according to whether VTE occurred in the perioperative period. The general data, etiology, underlying diseases, treatment modalities and blood indexes of the two groups were analyzed to summarize the independent influencing factors of VTE occurring in the perioperative period in plastic surgery.Results:Age, hypertension, diabetes, chronic skin ulcers, and length of surgery were risk factors associated with the development of perioperative VTE, (χ 2/ t=17.77, 8.24, 5.22, 25.55, 2.82, P<0.05). BMI ≥ 24 kg/m 2, general anaesthesia and short braking days were independent factors influencing the development of VTE in the perioperative period in plastic surgery inpatients, OR values were 8.908, 13.197, 0.042; P<0.05, respectively. Conclusions:BMI ≥ 24 kg/m 2 and general anaesthesia are the independent risk factors of plastic surgery in perioperative period developing VTE, short braking days is a protective factor against VTE in the perioperative period of plastic surgery. Clinicians should adequately assess the occurrence of perioperative VTE in plastic surgery inpatients and give early and individualized preventive measures.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of autologous costal cartilage cortex as nasal tip support and modified graft for nasal tip contour improvement.Methods:From June 2020 to June 2021, 116 patients (male 26, female 90, aged 20-45 years) who received rhinoplasty in the cosmetic surgery department of Myoung Beaucare Clinic of Beijing, were examined the costal cartilage by CT, and the costal cartilage was cut. The costal cartilage cortex was made into " strip" and " cap" grafts to shape the nasal tip, and the nasal dorsum was raised by polytetrafluoroethylene or silicone prosthesis for comprehensive rhinoplasty.Results:A total of 116 patients were followed up for an average of 11.7 months. After the operation, there was no space occupying in the nasal cavity, no graft protrusion, no obvious foreign body feeling in the nasal valve, and the nasal tip could swing left and right. At the same time, the nasal tip showed obvious signs, the lower lobule was full, and there were no complications such as cartilage appearance, exposure, infection, etc. Due to the untreated deviation of nasal septum, 3 cases had deviation of nasal columella and asymmetric nostrils. The shape of nasal tip was stable in the remaining 113 cases, and satisfactory results were obtained.Conclusions:By using autologous costal cartilage cortex as nasal tip support and modification graft for nasal tip contour improvement, the shaped nasal tip is soft and movable, and does not affect the airway. It is a good surgical technique in nasal tip plastic surgery, which is worthy of clinical application.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of ship-shaped expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE) nasal prosthesis in rhinoplasty.Methods:From February 2016 to June 2021, 86 patients, including 9 males and 77 females, aged 18-47 (24±5) years old, were admitted to Chengdu High-tech Zone Xinyuerong Medical Aesthetic Clinic for cosmetic treatment of rhinoplasty. All patients underwent rhinoplasty with the application of ship-shaped e-PTFE and autologous cartilage. The postoperative complications, glabellar fullness, inverted brow triangle, nasal polygon aesthetic shape and patient satisfaction were evaluated. These data were measured and analyzed, including the nasal length, nasal tip height, nasal frontal angle and nasal facial angle before and after the operation.Results:In 86 patients, the incision healed in one stage after surgery, and 8 cases had nasal vestibular scar hyperplasia. All patients were followed up for 1-5 years: 84 cases obtained satisfactory nasal morphology, and 2 cases recovered naturally after adjusting and lowering the prosthesis height half a year after surgery because the interbrow area was too full. 74 patients (86%) were very satisfied, 10 cases (11.6%) were satisfied. The nasal length was (4.07±0.20) cm, the nasal tip height was (2.66±0.36) cm, the nasal frontal angle was (106.42±8.04)°, and the nasal face angle was (15.90±0.85)°before operation. The nasal length was (4.23±0.20) cm, the nasal tip height was (2.59±0.26) cm, the naso-frontal angle was (113.69±6.34)°, and the naso-facial angle was (21.57±0.78)° at eighteen months after operation. There were statistically significant differences in nasal length, naso-frontal angle and naso-facial angle ( t=-5.51, -5.96, -52.31, P<0.01), but no statistically significant differences in nasal tip height ( t=1.47, P=0.146). Conclusions:The ship-shaped e-PTFE can be shaped to reflect the aesthetic of the nose dorsum, which is similar to the anatomical structure of the nose dorsum, increase the stability and authenticity of the prosthesis, and is worthy of clinical application.
