Aesthetic surgery of the abdominal wall

Más información sobre el libro

Abdominal wall contouring has evolved significantly from the days of simple dermolipectomies, which often overlooked diastasis correction and muscular reinforcement, as well as aesthetic outcomes. Today, abdominoplasty is tailored even for the most discerning patients, with careful planning of incision placement and umbilicoplasty to minimize visible scars. The introduction of suction-assisted lipectomy, whether combined with traditional procedures or used alone, has empowered plastic surgeons to reshape the entire trunk and remove substantial amounts of adipose tissue. This comprehensive textbook, created by Drs. Shiffman and Mirrafati alongside esteemed colleagues, consolidates this knowledge in the field of plastic surgery, particularly focusing on aesthetic surgery of the abdominal wall. It serves as an essential resource for both novice and seasoned surgeons, addressing all facets of plastic abdominal surgery. The emphasis lies on abdominoplasty and abdominal liposuction, exploring various techniques and combinations, making it a valuable reference for those interested in body contouring.
