Plastic Surgery

by Stephen J. Mathes

The second edition of this encyclopedic, 8-volume reference covers the complete spectrum of plastic surgery--from the basic principles to surgery of the nose, breast, and ear, plus aesthetic facial surgery and liposuction. Updates throughout capture the state of the art in all areas of science, technique, and technology. Greatly expanded coverage of cosmetic surgery mirrors the increased number of aesthetic procedures now being performed. The two volumes on plastic surgery of the head and neck feature full-color photographs throughout, to help readers visualize key concepts, procedures, and outcomes.
