Evidence base in 2015 remains a subject of controversy for surgeons related to its application in surgery that cannot be approached as it is in medical evidence. Academic surgeons acknowledge that evidence base is necessary and private practitioners know it is woven into the fabric of their practice. Dr. Lisa Ishii and Dr. Travis Tollefson, editors of this publication, are at the forefront of clinical use of and research into evidence based surgery. The Oxford Centre system of evidence is used for this issue. Currently, evidence is dominant in the reconstructive aspect, moreso than the cosmetic aspect; as such, this resource focuses on the nerve and microvascular procedures. Topics include Facial vascular anomalies, Cleft lip and palate; Trauma; Facial reanimation; System reviews and metanalyses; and Skin care, Laser treatments; and Rhinoplasty. Audience for this resource is facial plastic surgeons, otolaryngologists, plastic surgeons, laser therapists, dermatologists, and skin researchers.

Are you considering facial feminization surgery? Are you transitioning, but have a prominent chin, a heavy brow, or a strong lower jaw that you feel detracts from your femininity? Would you like your appearance to more closely match the way you feel inside? If so, perhaps you're considering facial feminization surgery (FFS). For many transgendered women, having their facial features refined is an important step in their transition. Some individuals consider it the most essential part of their transformation. Jordan Deschamps-Braley, M.D., is an accomplished plastic surgeon who specializes in FFS. His partner, Douglas Ousterhout, M.D., is a pioneer in FFS and has performed these surgeries for decades. Topics they cover include: scalp advancement, forehead feminization, temple augmentation, cheek contouring, nose reshaping, lip reshaping, chin feminization, lower jaw tapering, thyroid cartilage reduction, lower jaw repositioning, upper jaw repositioning, facelifts, and hair transplants. The authors also provide information on the recovery process for each procedure as well as side effects to expect and potential complications. This book also contains before-and-after photos of FFS patients.
