Working at the forefront of cosmetic surgery at the turn of the twentieth century, Dr Suzanne NoÃ'l was both a pioneer in her medical field and a firm believer in the advancement of women. Today her views on the benefits of aesthetic surgery to women may seem at odds with her feminist principles, but by placing NoÃ'l in the context of turn-of-the-century French culture, this book is able to demonstrate how these two worldviews were reconciled.
