Sequential infravermilion and supravermilion lip reconstruction. A new concept.

The majority of lip repairs may be better facilitated by initially repairing the infravermilion cutaneous defect and then separately considering repair of the mucosal and, when present, submucosal defect. These sequential considerations allow a variety of reconstructive approaches to be applied to the different types of tissue lost above and below the vermilion border. Many of the sequelae of standard wedge excisions and their resultant repairs may be avoided by utilizing sequential infravermilion and supravermilion lip reconstruction.

Restoration of curved earlobe configuration with scar tissue advancement flap combined with second-intention wound healing.

Reconstruction of earlobe curvature in a scar-deformed and displaced earlobe was accomplished by a combination of 1) hypertrophic scar debulking, 2) partial defect closure by scar tissue flap advancement to re-establish the cephalic extent of the neck at the infralobular crease, and 3) second-intention healing of the noncovered lower earlobe, preserving its surgically re-established curved configuration. Although this article specifically addresses scarring deformities of the earlobe, the same principles could be applied to congenital, noncicatricial tenting deformities.

Liposuction surgery and autologous fat transplantation.

Since the importation of liposuction surgery into the United States more than a decade ago, we have witnessed a number of major technique changes and practice trends occur. One of us (L.M.F.) was the first dermatologic surgeon to undergo the "lipsuction experience" (Paris, 1977) under the tutelage of Giorgio and Arpad Fisher and Pierre Fournier, and another (R.S.N.) the first to undergo training with Yves Illouz (also Paris). All three co-workers have served on teaching faculties of both the International and American Societies for Dermatologic Surgery, the American Society of Liposuction Surgery, and the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, have performed many hundreds of procedures, and have lectured/published on this subject on repeated occasions. We recognize certain vital changes and expansions have occurred during the past decade, and share our impressions of these with you.
