Integrated Procedures In Facial Cosmetic Surgery

Physical attractiveness of the face has a significant impact on the social life and daily interaction of individuals as well as one’s general perception of life. Proper surgical planning for aesthetic facial surgery requires a meticulous analysis of the patient’s current and desired facial features from the perspective of both soft and hard tissues. Significantly greater changes to facial aesthetics can be made via the alteration of the main bony structures of the face than by alteration of soft tissue and skin alone. Various surgical and clinical techniques are available for the augmentation, reduction or refinement of the most prominent aspects of facial aesthetics, such as alterations to the cheek, chin, nose, para-nasal area, as well as the angle of the jaw. These techniques can be categorized as office-based or non-invasive techniques (filler injections, facial liposculpture or liposuction to modify the soft tissue of the face) and invasive surgical interventions such as facial prosthesis and maxillofacial osteotomies. In order to achieve the optimum aesthetic results for patients who undergo bi-maxillary or mono-maxillary orthognathic surgery, it is of paramount importance to utilize a hard and soft-tissue integrated approach. These integrated approaches have utilized the latest techniques in 3-dimentional printing, computer-assisted surgery, tissue engineering and stem-cell therapy in order to achieve positive and lasting outcomes. Integrated Procedures in Facial Cosmetic Surgery includes chapters that focus on facial analysis and clinical evaluation and best practices in surgical techniques such as: principles of bone contouring; genioplasty; mentoplasty; malarplasty; rhinoplasty; orthognatic surgery and intra-oral plastic surgery; lifting procedures like blepharoplasty; surgical approaches to cleft lip and palate surgery; as well as the principles of facial photography. Written by a team of renowned international experts, this textbook features over 900 original photographs, fully illustrating each procedure in a stepwise manner.

Its contents will also be of interest to dentists, prosthodontists, periodontists, radiologists, general surgeons, and dermatologists.

This book provides an overview of facial cosmetic surgical procedures. Our society has become more fitness oriented, and many women and men continue a very active lifestyle longer than they may have in the past. They want to look as good as they feel. Executives, salespeople, and business owners want to maintain a competitive edge and look their best when meeting clients, in front of a camera, or on stage. Facial cosmetic surgery is a solution for many people who desire to regain a youthful appearance. As we age, our skin loses its elasticity and the effects of aging become apparent around the eyes and on the face and neck. Brows become set lower and the eyes don't appear to fully open. Deep furrows may develop between the brows, giving a facial expression of concern or anger. Dark, puffy areas appear below the eyes, giving the look of being tired. Sagging or droopy skin appears on the face and neck, along with an increase of wrinkles and less definition of the contour of the neck and chin. Procedures explained in this book, including the endoscopic brow lift, eyelid surgery, and facelift can help restore the appearance of youth. Everyone is unique and a specific procedure, or a combination of procedures, may be recommended for the best results.

Burden, MD, FACS, is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. He is the founder and CEO of Destin Plastic Surgery in Destin, Florida and is also the founder of the Destin Surgery Center, housed in the same building. During his fellowship in Plastic Surgery at the University of Florida, Dr. Burden worked with his professors to introduce endoscopic and specialized microvascular techniques in breast and facial cosmetic surgery.
