[Botulinum toxin and rejuvenation of the eye].

2013

Treatments with botulinum toxin in the forehead and periorbital areas may induce disappointing or even paradoxical results. Our study, focused on this area aimed at refining injection techniques by analyzing muscular balances and comparing the effect according to injection doses and topography. Ler mais

New trends in rhinoplasty.

2011

Rhinoplasty is one of the most interesting and complex aesthetic surgeries. It's main aesthetic and artistic goal is to enhance beauty by creating a harmonious natural looking face. There isn't one and only standard rhinoplasty procedure, but as many rhinoplasties as there are individual patients. Everyone seeks for more wellbeing and self-confidence in the quest of beauty. Along with facial aesthetic, rhinoplasty aims to improve the nasal breathing function, another important factor for patients. Rhinoplasties have evolved in much the same way as other plastic surgeries: more radical; more preserving of the function; and more simple both in concept and in procedure. Rhinoplasty procedures are simplified with the objective of reducing surgical trauma and optimising down time. It remains a surgical act, but newer fields of aesthetic medicine modify its philosophic and technical approach. Furthermore, approaches which propose an external approach and large dissection are now becoming less common. The developpement of aesthetic medicine is also one of the most recent and important "evolution corner" in the indication strategy. We can now modifiy and "sculpt" the nose by using fillers, with or without the use of botulinum toxin. In this article, the author describes his personal surgical strategies and the position of non-surgical solutions in the modification of the nose appearance. Ler mais

[Advantages of combined therapies in cosmetic medicine for the treatment of face aging: botulinum toxin, fillers and mesotherapy].

2010

Non surgical cosmetic medicine procedures for the face are developing considerably, as they deliver good results using simple, non invasive, atraumatic and reproducible techniques. Aesthetic mesotherapy, also known as anti-aging mesotherapy, uses intra-dermal injections of a nutritive and moisturizing solution to improve brightness, skin hydration and tonus, and also smooth out superficial wrinkles. Subcutaneous filler injections enable to fill wrinkles and folds; by using high density products it is also able to provide genuine facial volumetric reconstruction. Finally, botulinum toxin acts by reducing certain muscle contractions to smooth out expression lines and folds induced by facial dynamics. In this article, we explore the concept of combined therapy and describe our experience associating anti-aging mesotherapy (NCTF-135HA, Filorga, Paris, France), hyaluronic acid based fillers (X-HA3 and X-HA-Volume, Filorga, Paris, France) and botulinum toxin (Vistabel, Allergan, Irvine CA, USA). A therapy combining anti-aging mesotherapy, botulinum toxin and filler injections, offers full treatment of the 3 biological levels of the covering tissues. This non-invasive therapeutic strategy brings patient satisfaction through a global approach to facial aging. Ler mais

[Surgical anatomy of the nose].

2006

A good anatomical knowledge is a pre-requisite to all surgeries. In rhinoplasty, where many steps are performed without visual control and are only guided by palpation, anatomy must be mastered. Based on classical static anatomy and dynamic surgical modifications of the nose, this study analyses anatomical and surgical correlation and reports their technical implications. Correction of the shape of the nose is to be able to conceptualize the underlying skeleton and to program adapted surgical procedure for each case. Ler mais

[Recurrent acoustic neurinoma after complete surgical resection].

Feb, 2001

Mortality of acoustic neurinoma surgery is currently very low, well below the figures reported by the first surgeons. Morbidity has also declined with attempts at preserving the facial function and more recently hearing function. Long-term follow-up has demonstrated the well-known risk of recurrence after partial resection, but also evidenced a risk after complete resection. Ler mais

[Essential parathyroid cysts: a misleading lesion].

2000

Though a rare lesion, non-functioning parathyroid cyst is of clinical significance because it usually mimics a thyroid nodule. The cyst can be ectopic in location and therefore constitutes a differential diagnosis to a bronchial or thymic cyst. Two recent cases of non-functioning parathyroid assay are reported. Needle puncture with estimation of the level of parathyroid hormone in the aspirate allows the diagnosis to be made before surgery. Ler mais
