Manual of Aesthetic Surgery 1 PDF

Aesthetic surgery is an interdisciplinary specialty.

Its members are re- cruited from the fields of surgery, gynecology, orthopedics, otolaryngol- ogy (ENT), maxillofacial surgery, plastic surgery, ophthalmology, and dermatology.

In most cases, they are specialists who have become inter- ested in practicing aesthetic surgery after completing their specialist training.

Aesthetic surgery is not synonymous with plastic surgery.

During their training in aesthetic surgery, aspiring aesthetic surgeons have to leam special surgical techniques, which are unfortunately not adequately de- scribed in the postgraduate training catalogues.

This manual has been prepared as an audiovisual medium.

It presents the most important standard operations in the field of aesthetic surgery in a clearly understandable style.

We hope that the manual will help young surgeons to leam the techniques of aesthetic surgery an- equally important -to avoid mistakes and complications.

The Manual is primarily aimed at specialists in aesthetic surgery.

How- ever, it is also suitable for physicians who become interested in aesthetic surgery after finishing medical school who would like to find out about the field and for the natural target group of physicians who want to leam the techniques of aesthetic surgery after completing their specialist training.
