Assuming knowledge of basic surgical techniques, this book provides step-by-step guidance to the surgeon to obtain safe and effective results. It offers what is often missing in aesthetic surgery manuals: clear, basic, and safe techniques to achieve consistently good aesthetic results.

The proposed procedures will not solve each clinical scenario, but aim to generate a basic knowledge for the surgeon that can be used for most patients. For each step of the intervention, it is explained in detail what will be performed, why and how. In each phase, the role of the operator (assumed to be right handed) and the tasks of the assistant are described. A description of the surgical instruments closes each paragraph.
