Provider-centric, face-to-face health intervention programs that help people quit smoking, lose weight and increase activity levels have been shown to work, but they are expensive, don?t scale, and inconvenient. By contrast, Internet-based programs with similar goals can be disseminated widely and inexpensively, and can be accessed by [...]

Face Lift
Learning Objectives: After reading this article, the participant should be able to: 1. Identify and describe the anatomy of and changes to the aging face, including changes in bone mass and structure and changes to the skin, tissue, and muscles. 2. Assess each individual’s unique anatomy before embarking on face-lift surgery and incorporate various surgical techniques, including fat grafting and other corrective procedures in addition to shifting existing fat to a higher position on the face, into discussions with patients. 3. Identify risk factors and potential complications in prospective patients. 4. Describe the benefits and risks of various techniques.
Summary: The ability to surgically rejuvenate the aging face has progressed in parallel with plastic surgeons’ understanding of facial anatomy. In turn, a more clear explanation now exists for the visible changes seen in the aging face. This article and its associated video content review the current understanding of facial anatomy as it relates to facial aging. The standard face-lift techniques are explained and their various features, both good and bad, are reviewed. The objective is for surgeons to make a better aesthetic diagnosis before embarking on face-lift surgery, and to have the ability to use the appropriate technique depending on the clinical situation.

Vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free? You can still enjoy Thanksgiving dinner
Years ago, my husband and I hosted a holiday party. We thought we had put together a nice array of food. But midway through I noticed a guest whom I hadn?t known very long surveying the spread with skepticism. Turned out she was a vegetarian, and, to my dismay, our holiday table had little to offer her.

Progressive craniofacial bone loss after cosmetic surgery at the forehead.
Progressive craniofacial bone loss after cosmetic surgery at the forehead.
Skeletal Radiol. 2011 Nov 30;
Authors: Prasad AP, George V, Porzig A, Horvai AE, Gross A, Shoback D, Link TM
Abstract
We present the case of a 59-year-old woman with a history of plastic surgery at the forehead who complained of progressive indentations at the frontal skull. CT and MR scans revealed significant bone thinning, presenting as lytic skull lesions, which progressed over a period of 3 years. Biopsies were obtained from the lytic lesions and histology showed fibrotic tissue, synthetic residue of previous cosmetic procedure, and no evidence of infection or neoplasm. Progressive cranial bone resorption places the patient at increased risk for cerebral injury. This case highlights a potential complication after cosmetic facial surgery, with bony resorption resulting in both skull deformation and increased risk for cerebral injury.

Traffic science struggles to keep cars flowing on highways in D.C. and elsewhere
Traffic science is one of those disciplines that seems permanently poised on the verge of a breakthrough. Professional journals regularly publish promising research, and the press trumpets their importance. In 1999, The Post reported that scientists had gathered at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico to solve our national traffic problem ? just as an earlier generation of physicists had done to build the atomic bomb. And yet driving on the Beltway is still about as enjoyable as cleaning out your ears with a lemon reamer.
