Comparison of commercial fibrin sealants in facelift surgery: a prospective study
TLDR
The two fibrin sealants used were nearly identical with regard to patient safety and quality of the result, and it is noted that, while Tissucol has both hemostatic and “gluing” effects, Quixil is mainly effective in securing hemostasis.
Hematoma rates in drainless deep-plane face-lift surgery with and without the use of fibrin glue.
TLDR
The use of fibrin glue demonstrates a significant decrease in the rate of hematoma formation in drainless deep-plane rhytidectomy and may benefit male more than female patients.
Efficacy and safety of fibrin sealant for tissue adherence in facial rhytidectomy
  • W. Spotnitz
  • Medicine
    Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology
  • 2012
TLDR
Fibrin sealant is almost ideally suited to reduce the occurrence of fluid accumulation, hematomas, ecchymoses, and swelling, as well as to possibly eliminate the need for drains following rhytidectomy.
Role of Tisseel Fibrin Sealant on Postoperative Seroma and Hematoma Rates in Rhytidectomy Patients
TLDR
The use of fibrin sealant can complement good surgical hemostatic technique, but the material cannot be relied on to reduce postoperative rates of hematomas and seromas after rhytidectomy procedures.
Volumetric short scar rhytidectomy--indications, technique and outcomes.
Efficacy of Crosseal fibrin sealant (human) in rhytidectomy.
TLDR
The study demonstrated efficacy of Crosseal in reducing ecchymoses and swelling in all patients and demonstrated that there were no known long-term complications from either the use of CrosSEal or the rhytidectomy.
Fibrin adhesive derived from snake venom in periodontal surgery.
TLDR
It is suggested that the alternative fibrin adhesive tested may represent an alternative to sutures in periodontal surgery and randomized clinical trials should be performed to evaluate the clinical advantages and disadvantages of the material.
Evidence-Based Medicine: Face Lift
TLDR
The effects of various pharmacologic interventions and surgical techniques on postoperative complications are reviewed and a meta-analysis of recent literature was performed to compare the rates of postoperative hematoma formation following various face lift techniques.
Hematomas in Aesthetic Surgery
TLDR
Understanding hematoma development and management enhances patient safety and will lead to overall increased patient satisfaction after aesthetic surgery.
Experience with Fibrin Glue in Rhytidectomy
TLDR
The use of fibrin glue was associated with some benefits for rhytidectomy and the use of drains was eliminated, and the difference in expanding hematoma was clinically, but not statistically, significant.

TLDR
The autologous preparation of fibrin glue and minimal suture technique is an alternative to eyelid incision closure and may be useful in many other types of operative procedures.
A prospective, randomized, double-blind trial of the use of fibrin sealant for face lifts.
TLDR
The reduction in postoperative drainage could also reduce pain and bruising, increasing patient satisfaction with this procedure, and the need for drains may also be obviated.
Fibrin glue fixation in forehead endoscopy: evaluation of our experience with 206 cases.
TLDR
The endoscopic approach has totally replaced the bicoronal approach for the treatment of forehead aging in the authors' practice since November of 1993 and a significant increase in the number of excellent results (from 47 to 78 percent) and satisfactory results (rated excellent or good) increased.
Properties of Different Tissue Sealants with Special Emphasis on Fibrinogen-Based Preparations
TLDR
The coarse type fibrin sealant proved to be superior in tensile strength, cell compatibility and fibroblastic proliferation and the major difference is in clot structure — coarse versus fine.
Prevention of seromas and hematomas after face-lift surgery with the use of postoperative vacuum drains.
TLDR
The use of intrawound vacuum drains during the first 24 hours after surgery significantly decreases the rate of seroma formation and the occurrence of hematomas is also reduced, but less dramatically.
Male face lift in continuity with lower blepharoplasty
TLDR
A combined procedure of male rhytidectomy in continuity with the lower blepharoplasty incision is described, which provides an increased mechanical advantage in rotation and elevation of the cheek flap which is necessary to correct adequately the frequent redundancy and marked sagging in the lower face and neck often witnessed in the aging male patient.

TLDR
Capillary bed bleeding was present in all cases and effectively sealed within 3 minutes following the application of platelet gel and fibrin glue, so as to maintain hemostasis during cosmetic surgical procedures.
