The Male Facelift: An Analysis of 115 Cases

Incidence and Risk Factors for Major Hematomas in Aesthetic Surgery: Analysis of 129,007 Patients

“…[16][17][18][19] Likewise, the incidence of hematoma after facelift surgery ranges from 0.2% to 12.9% in the literature, but our analysis showed an incidence of 1%. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Although prior studies on body contouring procedures showed hematoma rates ranging from 3% to 15%, our study showed lower rates after abdominoplasty at 1.1%, thigh lifts at 2%, and lower body lifts at 4%. [3][4][5] The most likely reason for the lower hematoma rates observed in our cohort is that the database captured only major hematomas requiring emergency room visit, hospital admission, or reoperation, and did not capture minor hematomas that are treated in the outpatient setting.…”

Hematoma Rates in Drainless Deep-Plane Face-lift Surgery With and Without the Use of Fibrin Glue

“…The use of fibrin glue demonstrates a significant decrease in the rate of minor hematoma formation. Hematoma rates of 3.4% (without fibrin glue) and 0.4% (with fibrin glue) in patients in whom surgical drains were not used fall within the major hematoma rate of 0.2% to 8.1% observed in patients in whom drains were used 1-29. In their study, Marchac and Sandor27 had a major hematoma rate of 9% in patients treated without fibrin glue and with the placement of surgical drains.…”

An Evidence-Based and Case-Based Comparison of Modern Face Lift Techniques

“…The initial search returned 3479 articles, which was reduced to 229 articles after review of title and abstract for relevant context. Full-text review yielded 65 relevant articles 3–7,11,21–27,29–35,37,41–87 (Fig. 1).…”
