Retinal Branch Artery Embolization Following Hyaluronic Acid Injection: A Case Report
We report on a patient who experienced visual acuity impairment and ischemic oculomotor nerve palsy after injection of HA into the nasal dorsum. In this case, clinical signs improved within 14 days of treatment. We also provide a review of the mechanism, clinical features, risk factors, and prevention and treatment strategies relating to embolization of ocular circulation after injection of HA. Vision loss is a rare but devastating complication of injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) in the face. Visual acuity seldom recovers completely. We report on a 22-year-old Asian woman who experienced obstruction of a branch of the ret...

A Comparison of Research Productivity Across Plastic Surgery Fellowship Directors
Conclusions
As measured by the h-index, there is a high level of academic productivity among fellowship directors, regardless of subspecialty area. Unlike other plastic surgery subspecialties however, the h-index of aesthetic plastic surgeons is not correlated to academic rank, revealing a discrepancy between perceptions of aesthetic plastic surgery and its actual academic impact.

Safety of Aesthetic Surgery in the Overweight Patient: Analysis of 127,961 Patients
Conclusions
Overweight (BMI 25-29.9) and obesity (BMI ≥ 30) are both independent risk factors for post-operative infection and VTE in aesthetic surgery.

Complications from Nasolabial Fold Injection of Calcium Hydroxylapatite for Facial Soft-Tissue Augmentation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Conclusions
These findings support the addition of lidocaine to NLF injection of CaHA and suggest an equivalence between CaHA and HA with respect to hematoma and nodule formation.

The Safe Labiaplasty: A Study of Nerve Density in Labia Minora and Its Implications
Conclusions
Most labiaplasty techniques can be performed safely and are unlikely to cause loss of sensation as the nerve density distribution in labia minora is heterogeneous. (Source: Aesthetic Surgery Journal)
