Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery of the Upper Face

Description

The definitive resource on cutting-edge oculoplastic surgery of the upper face, eyelids, and eyebrows
While an estimated 1.5 million brow and upper eyelid surgery procedures are performed worldwide each year,
this book is the first published ophthalmologic text with detailed coverage focused solely on this topic.
Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery of the Upper Face: Eyelid Ptosis, Dermatochalasis, and Eyebrow Ptosis by distinguished
oculofacial plastic surgeons and educators Michael A. Burnstine, Steven C. Dresner, David B. Samimi, Helen A. Merritt,
and an impressive group of international experts fills a void in the literature. The succinct, richly illustrated
text covers classification, anatomy, evaluation, and a wide spectrum of surgical approaches for each condition.
Surgical videos are included.

Organized by 7 sections and 39 chapters, the book begins with clinical assessment of patients who present with upper
eyelid and eyebrow conditions, followed by evidenced-based treatment protocols. All procedural chapters follow a
consistent format, enabling readers to classify problems, review surgical steps, and consider key issues associated
with each condition and corrective procedure. Mechanical, involutional, neurogenic, myogenic, and syndromic
blepharoptoses detailed in Sections 2 to 6 include etiology, diagnosis, management, and diverse state-of-the-art
resection, repair, lift, fill, and augmentation techniques.
