Surgical Techniques in Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery: Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery by Robert T Sataloff

Twenty-five chapters are included in all in this volume, covering both cosmetic and reconstructive surgical techniques ranging from rhinoplasty, face lifts, blepharoplasty, and minimally invasive techniques to scar revision and facial fracture management. Each chapter features background information, step-by-step details of surgical techniques, as well as “pearls” gleaned from surgical experience that are intended to assist clinicians in their efforts to provide state-of-the-art care to their patients.

The chapters dedicated to reconstructing the head and neck are designed to give the reader insight and overview into some of the ways in which facial plastic surgeons seek to restore the head and neck to both form and function. While discussing these techniques, the text also seeks to provide insight into considering the patient as a whole and forming a strong doctor-patient relationship. The reconstructive aspects of the text serve as an overview of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery and strives to provide answers for common deficits of the head and neck.

The section on cosmetic surgery of the face presents common approaches to facial aesthetic surgery. Technical approaches are presented from beginning to end in a structured format, while multiple alternative techniques are also provided for these procedures. Aesthetic analysis, photographic standards and descriptions of common maneuvers are depicted.
