dc.description.abstractBACKGROUND There are many different autologous grafts used for lip augmentation, such as fat, fascia, or dermofat grafts (DFG). However, filling with synthetic materials such as hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers is the most preferred method.OBJECTIVE The authors aimed to compare DFG with HA fillers regarding cost, permanence, complication rate, gained volume, and satisfaction rate. The authors investigated the effect of tie-over dressings on the viability of DFG.PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients who received hyaluronic acid fillers were referred to as Group H. Patients who received grafts without tie-over and with tie-over dressings formed Groups D1 and D2, respectively. The lip index (LI) was used for volume comparisons. The viable area of the grafts was measured using ultrasound imaging.RESULTS At postoperative month 6, the only significant difference was found between Group D1 and Group D2 (p < .05). At the postoperative first year, Groups D1 and D2 had a statistically higher LI value compared with Group H. Group D2 had a higher viable area than Group D2 (p < .05). Group H and Group D2 showed higher satisfaction scores than Group D1 (p < .05).CONCLUSION Dermofat grafts with or without tie-over dressings can be considered a reliable and inexpensive choice for patients who seek a more permanent procedure. Tie-over dressings increase the predictability of DFG and reduce the need for overcorrection.en_US
