Results are presented of dermis grafts used in conjunction with surgery for aging changes in the face. During a two-year period grafts were used to correct crease lines in the glabella and nasolabial creases, as well as angles of the mouth and vermilion. Volume of the grafts was well maintained and very few complications occurred. This technique offers better long-term results than can be obtained by collagen or fat injections. The results and techniques are presented in detail.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
