    Summary

    More men are seeking rhytidectomy (facelift) surgery. This facial plastic surgery differs significantly in men compared to women, with male patients experiencing a higher incidence of large hematomas post-operation.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Facial Rejuvenation Surgery
    • Aesthetic Surgery

    Background:

    • Facelift (rhytidectomy) is increasingly popular among men.
    • Surgical considerations and outcomes in male rhytidectomy differ from those in females.
    • Understanding these differences is crucial for optimizing patient care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the distinct aspects of rhytidectomy in male patients.
    • To compare the surgical outcomes and complications between male and female rhytidectomy.
    • To inform preoperative planning and surgical techniques for male facelifts.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of rhytidectomy procedures performed.
    • Comparison of preoperative planning, surgical techniques, and postoperative outcomes.
    • Specific focus on complication rates, particularly hematoma, in male versus female patients.

    Main Results:

    • Rhytidectomy in men requires different preoperative planning and surgical approaches.
    • Male patients experienced significantly higher rates of large hematomas compared to female patients (more than double).
    • Postoperative complications and final aesthetic results show variations between sexes.

    Conclusions:

    • Facelift surgery in men presents unique challenges and outcomes.
    • Increased vigilance for hematoma formation is necessary in male rhytidectomy.
    • Tailored surgical strategies are essential for successful facial rejuvenation in male patients.
