Expression wrinkles and sleep wrinkles differ in etiology, location, and anatomical pattern. Compression, shear, and stress forces act on the face in lateral or prone sleep positions. We review the literature relating to the development of wrinkles and the biomechanical changes that occur...

Preoperative Risk Factors and Complication Rates of Thighplasty: Analysis of 1,493 Patients
Conclusion
Infection and hematoma are the most common major complications. In thighplasty alone, smoking is the only independent risk factor for overall complications and hematoma formation. The addition of concomitant cosmetic procedures does not increase complication rates.
