Plastic and cosmetic surgery

About this book

Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery is a comprehensive exploration of the evolving field of surgical procedures aimed at enhancing and restoring the human form. Authored by F. Strange Kolle, M.D., this early 20th-century work delves into the history, principles, and practical applications of both reconstructive and aesthetic surgery. The book provides detailed accounts of surgical techniques used to correct congenital deformities, injuries, and disfigurements caused by disease or trauma, as well as methods for improving physical appearance. Dr. Kolle discusses the anatomy relevant to plastic surgery, the importance of surgical precision, and the psychological impact of physical transformation on patients. Richly illustrated with photographs and diagrams, the text offers case studies and step-by-step descriptions of procedures such as rhinoplasty, skin grafting, scar revision, and facial reconstruction. The author also addresses the ethical considerations and societal perceptions surrounding cosmetic enhancements. Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery stands as a valuable historical resource, reflecting the medical knowledge and cultural attitudes of its time, while providing insight into the foundational practices that have shaped modern plastic surgery.
