{"title":"Cosmetic \u0026 Reconstructive","description":"\u003cp\u003eCosmetic \u0026amp; reconstructive surgery focuses on surgical procedures that restore, enhance, or alter appearance and function, whether due to congenital conditions, trauma, or elective enhancement. This specialized medical field stands apart from general surgery by emphasizing both aesthetic outcomes and functional restoration, covering techniques ranging from minimally invasive cosmetic interventions to complex reconstructive work after injury or disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders interested in narrowing their study within cosmetic \u0026amp; reconstructive surgery can compare practice approaches, patient care standards, or procedural innovations. To place this field in context, consider how it overlaps with neighboring surgical specialties or focus on particular patient demographics, procedure types, or ethical considerations relevant to current medical practice.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"multi-level-mammaplasty-9789811219122-new","title":"Multi-Level Mammaplasty","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMulti-Level Mammaplasty\u003c\/em\u003e focuses on the modification of the Lassus technique, adjusted for the use in breasts of all shapes and sizes. This method relies on an upper pedicle relative to the areola and involves a lower central breast reduction, glandular shaping, and suturing. The tradeoff is that in order to ensure a fine-line peri-areolar scar, a vertical extension is added. However, this vertical scar fades over time and is partly obscured by the breast. The submammary horizontal scar, typical of the inverted T incision, is avoided through progressive gathering of the breast tissue during the reconstruction of the breast mound, precisely through trimming of the excess skin for a short, tension-free vertical suture. Moreover, the peri-areolar suture is not disturbed by the vertical suture with unnecessary tension. Still, in the larger breast, the vertical scar may extend to the chest wall. We accept this tradeoff and discuss it with our patients before surgery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this book, the authors present evidence to demonstrate that the Borenstein multi-level mammaplasty technique is safe and allows the precise reshaping of the breast with long-lasting results. Its advantages largely compensate for the addition of the vertical limb to the peri-areolar scar.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUB CO INC","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51544450564386,"sku":"9789811219122-new","price":103.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9789811219122.jpg?v=1776404127"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.albakireads.com\/collections\/medical-surgery-cosmetic-reconstructive.oembed","provider":"AlbakiReads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
