In the current study, we introduced a novel approach of a drainless superficial parotidectomy using a superiorly based SCM flap, gelfoam and placement of a post-operative facelift dressing. This drainless approach was associated with good long-term cosmetic and functional outcomes with few postoperative complications. This new technique may also offer the potential for long-term savings to the health care system.
