La rinoplastia ha evolucionado en las pasadas décadas hacia un arte y una ciencia incorporando los principios de la función nasal, preservación del cartílago, soporte a largo plazo y estética natural. Igualmente, el campo de la rinoplastia de revisión ha crecido y este libro está dedicado únicamente a esa subespecialidad.

El cirujano de rinoplastia dedicado estudia sus resultados y aprende de cada una de sus rinoplastias. El cirujano inteligente aprende también lo posible de la experiencia de otros cirujanos. Al respecto, Rinoplastia de revisión es uno de los textos de mayor utilidad para los estudiosos de la rinoplastia.

En efecto, las mejores lecciones pueden ser encontradas no en aquellos casos donde todo sale bien, sino en los casos que resultaron ser menos que óptimos. Es importante familiarizarse con las diferentes opciones cuando se trata de abordar las complicaciones de la rinoplastia. Más aun, la comprensión de las razones de los problemas podrá mejorar el enfoque del cirujano y los resultados de la rinoplastia primaria.

Este es un libro escrito por jóvenes cirujanos plásticos, tal como lo dice el editor. Lo ha dicho de buena fe, sin embargo, posee a los 35 cirujanos plásticos más luminosos del mundo, que han desempeñado por sí mismos más de 100.000 procedimientos de rejuvenecimiento facial, contribuyendo a la creación propia de 39 segmentos.

Este es un libro escrito por jóvenes cirujanos plásticos lo que le da una fundación sólida para el abordaje de cualquier tipo o de todos los retos que les espera en sus primeros años de cirugía facial estética.

En el entrenamiento del cirujano plástico, algunos residentes reciben una abundancia de experiencia en cirugía estética, mientras otros reciben menos. Pero aún aquellos afortunados, por lo general, se encuentran sólo con la experiencia del director del programa, que puede avalar o no las técnicas más contemporáneas. Este libro suministra el abordaje realizados por 36 expertos mundiales.

Los cirujanos deben afrontar la rinoplastia con un alto nivel de respeto a sus retos, con el compromiso de aprender un abordaje lógico y estructurado a sus complejidades y con la voluntad de referir los pacientes a colegas más expertos cuando los retos excedan sus recursos y con el compromiso requerido para ofrecer resultados óptimos para sus pacientes. Los cirujanos que no desean o no pueden convertirse en estudiantes perpetuos de la operación, buscar obstinadamente la perfección en la mesa operatoria y ganar experiencia suficiente en rinoplastia, deben dar prioridad al paciente y referirlo a los colegas que hayan demostrado esas características.

Han pasado ocho años desde la publicación y traducción de la primera edición de Rinoplastia Primaria: Un Nuevo Abordaje a su Lógica y Técnicas, durante los que los cirujanos han usado, validado y expandido los conceptos, los procesos de toma de decisiones y las técnicas quirúrgicas de la primera edición. En esta edición se incorporan los comentarios y sugerencias de los colegas, integrados con nuevos contenidos y mejores métodos de ofrecer la información.

Este libro es una interfaz para acceder al contenido y se integra con interfaces electrónicas para ofrecer contenido visual adicional y archivos en formato electrónico para que los cirujanos tengan un mejor acceso a la información y más flexibilidad para implementar el contenido en su ejercicio.

QMP is proud to announce the forthcoming publication of Rhinoplasty: Craft and Magic by Dr. Mark B. Constantian. This Master Work by a Master Surgeon is destined to change the way you practice rhinoplasty. It is essential reading for all surgeons interested in nasal surgery.

For many surgeons, rhinoplasty is seen as a complex and often mystifying operation. This book takes the mystery out of rhinoplasty, making it both understandable and controllable, demonstrating that function can always be improved, and showing how particular postoperative shapes can be achieved with a high level of certainty. It will provide you with the basic skills and understanding of how rhinoplasty works in both primary and secondary nasal operations.

This comprehensive book is packed full of useful information to help you improve your rhinoplasty results. An applied anatomy chapter discusses the critical anatomical variants that are important to diagnose and how these affect the end result during different operative procedures, such as reduction of the dorsum. The surgeon learns what to expect after each operative step in order to understand how to interpret what is seen in the operating room. Another chapter focuses on the airway; it describes how to avoid creating airway problems and how to correct these problems when they occur. Multiple grafting techniques are also described with step-by-step details of how to use each type of autogenous donor material and the secrets for making the grafts work the first time. Important information is included on how you work with the different types of soft tissue covers with different patient types and specific clinical problems, including: cleft lip nose, the traumatized nose, the older patient, the narrow nose, the thick-skinned nose, and the open rhinoplasty deformity. All common secondary problems are addressed in detail such as secondary dorsal tip and supratip deformities.

Numerous innovative feature and tips and tricks are included to guide the reader and enhance understanding. Icons introduce each technique, providing a visual summary of the operative strategy used for each problem discussed. Summaries of surgical plans precede each procedure. Surgical solutions to specific problems are grouped together and are illustrated with step-by-step technique. Long term results are analyzed – with inclusion of many 5, 10, and 15-year results. Four DVDs with operative video complement and expand on the techniques described in this amazing 2-volume set.

This second edition of the highly acclaimed Manual of Aesthetic Surgery again focuses on the most important and most frequently used procedures in aesthetic surgery. All chapters have been updated, and useful tips and tricks have been added. A number of important new methods are included, such as a facial mini lift (M-lift), a mini abdomen procedure, a so-called de-epithelializing method for use in buttock lifts, and liposuction by means of a sophisticated Micro-Air system. All techniques are displayed in a step-by-step manner with unsurpassed instructive drawings and high-quality pre- and postoperative photographs; only as much text is included as is absolutely necessary to support the illustrations. The accompanying DVD has been enhanced by additional new clips. Using the book and the DVD in conjunction, the reader will be able to identify and execute the most appropriate technique in each situation, avoid potential pitfalls, and institute appropriate complication management should it prove necessary.

Cosmetic Medicine and Aesthetic Surgery: Strategies for Success is a must for aesthetic surgeons interested in incorporating cosmetic medicine into their practices. It is also a lifeline for surviving the economic downturn. This is the right book at the right time! It offers surgeons the tools they need to meet the increasing patient demand for nonsurgical, minimally-invasive anti-aging procedures. The Editor, Dr. Renato Saltz, is one of the visionaries in the field who has been in the forefront of plastic surgeons advocating cosmetic medicine. He has chosen contributors who are experts from different specialties - plastic surgeons, dermatologists, aestheticians, and practice management consultants; they share their expertise and practical advice to provide readers with a virtual goldmine of information.

This landmark work, the first of its kind, is packed with practical information on the financial and business aspects of cosmetic medicine as well as the step-by-step clinical descriptions of noninvasive procedures. It begins with a key chapter by Dr. Saltz: Cosmetic Medicine: The Writing on the Wall that focuses on current trends of patient demand and how cosmetic medicine can help aesthetic surgeons keep their practices busy and viable when requests for more invasive surgery are lagging. Dr. Saltz and his expert contributors show by example how cosmetic medicine services and products can breathe new life into an aesthetic surgery practice – appealing to a broader demographic consisting of young patients, baby boomers, and older patients. It is the key to practice growth and patient retention—helping aesthetic surgeons retain patients from the first visit for a nonsurgical procedure to a surgical procedure later to treat more aggressive aging changes.
