Clarification of a Suspension Technique for Unstable Nasal Bones
To the Editor We read the article “Suspension Technique for Unstable Nasal Bones” (and related video) by Hunter and Tasman. We congratulate the authors on their work; however, some aspects may be underlined in their article. (Source: JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery)

Clarification of a Suspension Technique for Unstable Nasal Bones —Reply
In Reply Many thanks for the letter and comments relating to the recently published Surgical Pearl. We are very grateful to you for drawing our attention to the work of Maliniac, of which the authors were unaware. I remember during my higher surgical training once being told that if I thought I had had an original idea, I should check the german literature. Although that is not completely accurate in this case, the point is well made. (Source: JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery)

A Practical Precaution Relevant to Facial Injections
To the Editor We read with interest the case report by Sebaratnam et al. Recently a new type of white adipose tissue (WAT), dermal WAT (dWAT), has been identified and is recognized as playing a role in skin processes such as hair follicle growth, thermoregulation, wound healing, and signal transmission. This layer lies in the reticular dermis encasing mature hair follicles. In addition this fat compartment is associated with specific adipose stem cell phenotypes (CD24+), distinctly different from subcutaneous WAT, suggesting unique functions of this fat depot. Dermal WAT is organized in cone-like structures (often identifi...

A Practical Precaution Relevant to Facial Injections —Reply
In Reply We greatly appreciate the insights provided by Widgerow regarding a potential mechanism through which deoxycholic acid treatment could lead to a telogen effluvium. The hair follicle unit intimately interacts with dermal white adipose tissue (dWAT). As the hair follicle moves through the anagen, catagen, and telogen phases, there is progressive rearrangement of dermal adipocytes as well as variation in the thickness of the dWAT. The expansion of the dWAT follows the burgeoning of anagen hair follicles mediated by multiple signaling pathways including hedgehog, Shh, bone morphogenetic proteins, and WNT. Similarly, c...
