TLDR The volumes provide comprehensive guidance on aesthetic and reconstructive head and neck surgery.
Volumes 2 and 3 of "Plastic Surgery" by Stephen J. Mathes, published in 2007, focused on the head and neck, covering both aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. Part 1 addressed aesthetic procedures such as forehead and periorbital surgery, facial resurfacing, and rhinoplasty, while Part 2 discussed reconstructive techniques for soft-tissue injuries, facial burns, fractures, and complex reconstructions. The volumes were praised for their comprehensive content, detailed diagrams, photographs, and artwork, despite a publishing error that omitted 18 pages from one chapter. The work was noted for its significant impact on the specialty of plastic surgery.
