1st Edition
by Douglas Steinbrech (Editor)
The quintessential book on the rapidly expanding field of male aesthetic surgery from renowned experts!
During
the past decade, there has been an exponential increase in the number
of men undergoing aesthetic surgery in the U.S., with an estimated 1.3
million procedures performed annually. Male Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
by Douglas Steinbrech reflects expertise and insights from one of the
most-sought-after pioneers in male surgery, along with a Who's Who of
contributing authors. While many texts have been written on female
aesthetic surgery, this generously illustrated resource fills a void in
the literature.
Divided into four sections and 45 chapters, the
book reflects the background history and male-centric perspective that
sets male aesthetic surgery apart from its female counterpart. Essential
steps are detailed for each procedure including the physical exam,
anatomical variations, patient selection, preoperative preparations,
postoperative care, and invaluable pearls and pitfalls to maximize
results and avoid complications. Of special interest, each chapter
features bullet steps for quick and easy reference before entering the
OR. From innovative, never-before published techniques, such as a
sub-fascial abdominal silicone six-pack to the rapidly changing world of
male body contouring, the textbook covers a broad range of cutting-edge
and emerging techniques.

full spectrum of facial approaches including male blepharoplasty,
facelift in men, chin augmentation, facial fat grafting, cheek shaping,

abdominal definition, gluteal sculpting, abdominal contouring, chest

injectable, laser, and men's skincare procedures, including the use of
