Patients considering a facelift (facial rhytidectomy)need some means of predicting their surgical outcomes. This will help them decide whether to proceed with the operation.
A total of 50 consecutive patients were asked to examine themselves with a hand-held mirror while lying supine on an examining table to give them a reasonable approximation of their postoperative result.
The tissues of the face redrape in a very when lying completely supine. The appearance that the patient sees of himself or herself during the "supinetest" correlated very well with the actual postop result after rhytidectomy consisting of subcutaneous undermining,SMAS plication, and platysmaplasty.
This supine test may be useful in helping patients preoperatively predict their facelift outcomes and may serve as a good adjunct to imaging.
考虑接受面部除皱术(facelift)的患者需要某种方法来预测手术效果。这将帮助他们决定是否进行手术。
共有 50 名连续患者被要求躺在检查台上,用手持镜子检查自己,以合理模拟他们的术后效果。
当完全仰卧时,面部组织会非常重新分布。患者在“仰卧测试”中看到的自己的外观与皮下潜行、SMAS 折叠和颈阔肌成形术的实际术后结果非常吻合。
这种仰卧测试可能有助于患者术前预测面部除皱术的效果,并可作为影像学的良好辅助手段。
