Research activity
“Plastic surgery is both an art and a science”
Analysis of facial arterial course variability
The publications concerned the significance of arterial variability for the safety of deep plane facelifts and endoscopic brow lifts.
Facial fat compartments
The project provided a better understanding of the mechanisms behind facial changes after significant weight loss, including the role of the SMAS layer. This knowledge can help in choosing the appropriate surgical technique and extent of dissection.
Anatomy of vessels used in reconstructive surgery
Vessel variability important for planning reconstructive operations.
