Chemical peel.

Chemical face peeling as described in this article produces gross and microscopic changes in the skin which are permanent. The most important aspect in assuring the success of this procedure is the proper selection of patients. The primary use of this procedure is for the purpose of eliminating wrinkles, whether as the primary or ancillary procedure, such as regional peeling. Chemical peeling of the face is a valuable adjunct in the treatment of the aging face and can produce some rather dramatic results with the careful selection of patients and meticulous attention to detail in carrying out the peel, as well as the exact adherence to the post peel instructions by the patient.

Upper lid blepharoplasty.

We reviewed, retrospectively, our upper lid blepharoplasties to critically compare our own postoperative results after (1) conventional blepharoplasty, or (2) fixation of the levator aponeurosis to the lower margin of the orbicularis, or (3) fixation of the levator to the lower margins of the orbicularis and the skin. We found no demonstrable difference in our results with these 3 techniques. It is our opinion that the standard conventional blepharoplasty (including excision of a strip of orbicularis muscle) is preferable for use in most caucasian eyelids. The results are as good, it is simple, and it is less likely to cause problems.

Rhytidectomy: a statistical analysis.

A statistical analysis of 1,500 consecutive rhytidectomies is presented. In rhytidectomy, complications occur in a significant percentage of the operations. The plastic surgeon must be aware of the incidence and significance of these complications, and also he must know how to avoid or manage them.
