About This Book
A practical, illustrated surgical manual compiles historical background and step-by-step guidance on plastic and cosmetic procedures, emphasizing operating room setup, sterilization, antiseptics, wound care, and anesthesia. It outlines core principles — incisions, suturing, flap techniques, skin grafting, and prosthetic implantation — and provides detailed operative approaches for eyelids, the auricle, lips, oral apertures, facial defects, and hair transplantation. Instrumentation, sterilizing apparatus, and postoperative dressings receive specific attention, and numerous illustrations support the author's clinical recommendations and technical descriptions.
