SynopsisDr. Tebbetts' structured, innovative approach to primary rhinoplasty is based on the principle that a better result can be achieved by leaving the structures of the nose intact. Rather than removing, resecting, and replacing cartilage, bone, and other structures, this remarkable new technique delivers excellent results by manipulating and suturing structures into place, with minimal destruction of nasal tissues. This reference is particularly useful because Dr. Tebbetts' technique is highly structured and logical, making his methods (and results) easy to duplicate in the operating room. Describes the necessary sequencing steps and delves into the logic behind the rationale, helping the reader understand the theory behind the technique. Takes the reader step by step through the "how-to's" of necessary techniques in each region of the nose with hundreds of line drawings and side notes from the author. Covers each nasal region in a separate chapter; each section is self-contained so that the reader need only read the necessary chapter to obtain all the information needed for a particular technique. Includes case studies and a discussion of photography in rhinoplasty., Primary Rhinoplasty offers an extremely structured, revolutionary approach to primary rhinoplasty that is performed on a completely unaltered nose for cosmetic effect. The techniques are based on the principle that a better result can be achieved by leaving the structure of the nose intact. Primary Rhinoplasty describes how a surgeon can get terrific results by manipulating and suturing structures into place, with minimal destruction of the nasal tissues. It is well-illustrated with more than 250 colour photographs to enhance comprehension and make techniques easier to employ.
