Management of the aging forehead.

Browlifting and forehead procedures are a critical element in the contemporary surgical management of the aging face. Esthetics of the upper third of the face will dictate brow position and its relationship to the supraorbital rim and eyes. Treatment of deformities of the upper third of the face can be varied according to the sex and age of the patient as well as contour of the hairline and forehead. The indications, advantages, disadvantages, and techniques of the coronal forehead, modified pretrichal forehead, midforehead, and direct browlifting procedures are discussed.

A devitalized tooth as a complication of septorhinoplasty.

Complications of septorhinoplasty often involve adjacent structures, resulting in cosmetic as well as functional abnormalities. Dental complications of nasal surgery are rare. We describe a patient who underwent septorhinoplasty with a postoperative complication of a devitalized tooth. To our knowledge, this is the first report of such a dental complication. Bony manipulation in the region of the nasal spine may have resulted in the interruption of the neurovascular supply to the right central incisor, yielding a devitalized tooth. An aberrant vascular supply, or root apex situated high in the premaxilla, can predispose to dental injury while performing bony manipulation near the nasal spine. Preoperative evaluation of patients who are at risk for dental complications may allow the surgeon to safely achieve the functional and cosmetic goals of septorhinoplasty.
