Stepwise Atlas of Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery

Beschreibung

This Stepwise Atlas of Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery will be a valued companion to young surgeons or seasoned ones that are less aware of the latest medical and surgical aesthetic procedures. Richly illustrated with over 320 original photos, and detailed enough to serve as a study, it is yet concise for quick reference to the busiest of trainees and residents. Presenting the contents in two sections, the first more theoretical, the second more hands-on, the work covers all body regions relevant for aesthetic medicine or cosmetic surgical interventions. The chapters cover the face (as a whole, then with focus on nose, eyes, and ears) the breast, the abdomen, the adipose tissue, and include a specific part on anaesthesia and pain management, one devoted to fillers (autologous or heterologous) and botulinum, as well as one on lasers and lights, and liposuction. Each chapter includes the approach to the patient, helps in choosing the procedure to be performed, high-quality illustrations of relevant anatomy, preoperative planning and instrument preparation, step-by-step guide to the procedure at a level appropriate for junior doctors, then immediate and long-term post-operative evaluation. This practical atlas will be a useful guide to safely start performing aesthetic medicine procedures, as well as the most common surgical operations, for plastic surgeons and physicians who aim to safely build their practice as cosmetic medicine specialists.
