Anesthesia in Cosmetic Surgery
Author: Barry FriedbergPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139464574
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
One major by-product of the aging baby-boom generation has been a surging interest in cosmetic surgery. Out-patient cosmetic surgery clinics have sprouted up in droves all over the U.S., and the number of cosmetic procedures performed in 2005 increased by over 95% from the previous year. Although procedures like facelifts and abdominoplasties (the 'tummy-tuck') are considered minimally invasive, the anesthetic protocols and regimens here are often overly complex and unnecessarily toxic. Major complications involving anesthesia in this (and any other) surgical milieu can range from severe post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) to neuromuscular spasticity to mortality. The mortality spectrum of things may be rare, but there have been many cases in which perfectly healthy cosmetic surgery patients require emergency intervention due to a severe complication involving anesthesia. In recent years, many new anesthetic protocols have been developed to reduce the incidence of PONV and other complications, while ensuring that effective pain management and level of 'un-awareness' during surgery is always maintained.

Category : Face
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
" Although many surgeons have already expanded their practices to include cosmetic procedures, this straightforward “how-to” manual is the first book to situate cosmetic facial surgery fully within the scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery. The authors guide the reader step-by-step through each procedure, from preoperative evaluation to surgical technique to postoperative concerns, and finally conclude with expert caveats on how to avoid complications as well as the essentials of how to manage them when they do occur. In addition to before and after photographs, each chapter features a series of full-color anatomical illustrations that detail precise surgical techniques for addressing the eyes, nose, ears, forehead and brow, face, and neck. A discussion of adjunctive therapies, including dermal fillers, botulinum toxin treatment, laser resurfacing, chemical peels, and prescription skin care systems, rounds out the comprehensive presentation of cosmetic procedures."--Publisher.
