In 490 functional septorhinoplasties, anxiety/depression patients had worse postoperative NOSE scores (35.3 vs 24.1) and higher revision odds (OR 2.56); among 179 aesthetic cases there was no difference. For functional cases, disclose the higher revision rate and smaller symptom gain; anxiety or depression should not disqualify aesthetic candidates, whose satisfaction was unaffected.
In 40 women, both preservation and structural rhinoplasty lowered jitter and shimmer and raised HNR at 3 months, with no change in CPPS and no meaningful between-technique difference. Only subclinical perturbation changes occurred; do not market voice improvement, since CPPS and overall voice quality did not change.
In 72 women having open rhinoplasty, periorbital edema and ecchymosis on days 1 and 3 were lowest in the estimated follicular phase and higher in luteal and periovulatory phases. Schedule elective rhinoplasty in the follicular week if the patient can choose, while treating this exploratory finding as hypothesis-generating rather than a rule.
In 1,036 face and neck lifts, TXA in local anesthetic (mean 582.6 mg) was not associated with more ischemic or systemic complications; no permanent nerve paralysis occurred. The safety signal is reassuring enough for routine use, but this cohort only rules out added harm; the bleeding and bruising benefit rests on other studies.
In 90 women with polyurethane implants, implant-only augmentation in selected mild ptosis scored 75.6 on BREAST-Q at 24 months versus 77.4 for augmentation-mastopexy, with 36 minutes less operative time. For mild ptosis patients who decline a lift, polyurethane implants at 350 cc or less are a defensible option, accepting about 0.8 cm of nipple descent and unproven non-inferiority.
In 66 women, awake subglandular augmentation with a multilayer fascial-plane block was completed without conversion to general anesthesia; four minor positional issues and no major complications. Feasible when the block is thorough, but this is a single-arm level IV series and does not justify replacing general anesthesia as routine.
