Edwin Cortez, Fred Fedok, and Devinder Mangat address questions for discussion and debate. Do you agree or disagree, and why, with the following: “The best method to improve moderate to deep rhytids is the croton oil–phenol peel.” “There are no problems with cardiotoxicity with croton oil–phenol peels if done appropriately.” “Do not do spot testing with chemical peel agents.” How do you handle peels in advanced Fitzpatrick skin types III, IV, V? What is the main factor for rate of reepithelialization: (1) depth of peel, (2) depth of laser, (3) depth of dermabrasion? How has your approach to or technique in chemical peels evolved over the past several years?

Rhinoplasty: Panel Discussion 25

Peter A. Adamson, Minas Constantinides, Alyn J. Kim, and Steven Pearlman

Should one use an open or closed rhinoplasty approach? How appropriate is the endonasal approach in modern-day rhinoplasty? Should the tip lobule be divided or preserved? Are alloplastic implants inferior to autologous implants? Does release and reduction of the upper lateral cartilages from the nasal dorsal septum always require spreader graft placement to prevent mid one-third nasal pinching in reduction rhinoplasty? Over past 5 years, how have rhinoplasty techniques and approaches evolved?
