Aesthetic Surgery Of The Craniofacial Skeleton

Achieve optimal results and high patient satisfaction with Aesthetic Surgery of the Facial Skeleton. Encompassing the entire field of facial skeletal contouring, this one-stop resource uses a problem-based, multidisciplinary approach to skeletal contouring of the face and adjunctive procedures that enhance results. With well-illustrated, focused coverage of all recent advances in this fast-changing area, it’s an ideal reference for trainee and practicing cosmetic surgeons, maxillofacial surgeons, craniofacial surgeons, plastic surgeons, otolaryngologists, and oral surgeons. Takes a multidisciplinary, problem-based approach to aesthetic techniques for the face, highlighted by numerous clinical cases and high-quality photos. Covers every area of the field: general principles, orthognathic surgery, alloplastic implants, genioplasty, malar and mandibular recontouring, autologous fat grafting, orbital rejuvenation, forehead and upper face, and many other related topics. Provides expert guidance on diagnosis, treatment planning, technical aspects, alternative approaches, and treatment of complications. Features state-of-the-art coverage of aesthetic contouring for the transgender patient and the Asian/ethnic patient, and the use of 3D imaging in facial surgery. Includes a section on special case considerations such as facial asymmetry, post-traumatic facial restoration, face transplantation, and nonsurgical enhancement of facial shape.

Aesthetic Surgery of the Craniofacial Skeleton is a unique atlas presenting specific procedures for aesthetic craniofacial surgery in a comprehensive and easily understandable style. With over 190 fine line drawings specially created for this volume, this book will have multifaceted applications; as an operation manual for the aesthetic craniofacial surgeon, a reference source for the general plastic surgeon, and as an introductory text for residents in craniofacial, reconstructive, oral, head and neck surgery. It includes close to 100 osteotomy methods and imperative information on patient selection, preoperative procedures, complications and implants.

Dr. McCarthy and his colleagues at NYU have developed techniques of distracting various components of the craniofacial skeleton. These techniques hold considerable promise for reconstructive surgery, allowing the surgeon to make precise changes in the lengthening and shape of the new craniofacial bone. This is the first volume of its kind, bringing together the pioneers of these revolutionary techniques: an international group of experts present their clinical and laboratory experience with distraction of the cranial vault, orbit, midface and zygoma, and mandible, as well as the principles of distraction, biomechanics, and the physiology of bone healing and remodelling. With two hundred illustrations, this is a must for all reconstructive plastic, maxillofacial, and oral surgeons.

Over the past decade, tremendous innovations in technology, clinical applications, and implant design have transformed the field of facial implant surgery, leading to improved outcomes and greater patient satisfaction. The highly anticipated 2nd Edition of Atlas of Facial Implants, led by renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Michael J. Yaremchuk, brings you fully up to date with these changes, offering authoritative coverage of both aesthetic and reconstructive applications of alloplastic implants for recontouring the craniofacial skeleton. Provides step-by-step descriptions of each procedure enhanced by hundreds of color illustrations and color photographs depicting preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative views. Reviews indications for implant use, patient evaluation, and surgical planning, as well as pearls and pitfalls throughout. Discusses Computer-Aided Design (CAD)/Computed-Aided Manufacture (CAM) for both cranial reconstruction (cranioplasty) as well as aesthetic applications. Features new coverage of facial implants as an important adjunct in rejuvenative aesthetic surgery, as well as their role in refining orthognathic surgical procedures, surgical treatment of Graves’ disease, and facial skeletal augmentation. Provides access to procedural videos depicting post orthognathic irregularities and imbalances, functional cranioplasty, and more.

Addressing the complete range of craniofacial anomalies, from cleft lip and orthognatic surgery to acute facial fractures and tumors, Craniofacial Surgery provides step-by-step instruction on the anesthetic management, surgical work-up, and operative treatment of complex congenital or acquired anomalies affecting the head, upper face, and jaw. Written by seasoned experts who have developed a thorough clinical and basic knowledge in this evolving discipline, this source will comprehensively analyze basic areas of craniofacial surgery, and set the standard for the management of these challenging clinical entities. Written in a basic science format slanted towards neurological disorders Craniofacial Surgery covers the basic areas of craniofacial surgery addressing the standard of technique to use within the diagnosis, treatment, recovery, and management for patients having craniofacial disorders the entire range of craniofacial anomalies from cleft lip and orthognatic surgery to acute facial fractures and tumors skeletonization and repositioning of the boney skeleton as well as three dimensional mobilization and re-positioning of the bony framework - which is only accomplished by a combined intra- and extra- cranial approach all modern-day techniques in craniofacial surgery, including the use of craniofacial techniques for application in aesthetic surgery The management of both congenital and acquired defects
