California Face Lift Surgery Study On Steroid Medication
Does steroid medication reduce facial edema following face lift surgery?A prospective, randomized study of 30 consecutive patients.
Division of Plastic Surgery, University of California at San Francisco, USA.
A prospective, double-blinded study of 30 consecutive face lift patients was conducted to determine if the administration of corticosteroid medication would reduce postoperative facial edema. Half the patients received steroid medications in a random fashion. Three independent plastic surgeons who were blinded to the study rated facial swelling by comparing preoperative and postoperative photographs using a scale of 1 to 4. The data were tabulated and subjected to statistical analysis. There were no significant differences in facial swelling between the steroid-treated group and the untreated patients on any occasion.
