Product information The Art of Aesthetic Surgery: Breast and Body Surgery, Third Edition - Volume 3

The ultimate guide to aesthetic surgery from world famous aesthetic surgeon Foad Nahai

The Art of Aesthetic Surgery: Principles and Techniques, Third Edition: Breast and Body Surgery – Volume 3 by internationally revered aesthetic surgeon Foad Nahai, distinguished section editors William Adams, Jeffrey Kenkel, and John Hunter, and an array of new contributors is part of an encyclopedic, three-volume masterwork. Considered the quintessential resource on cosmetic surgery since its inception, readers can purchase each volume separately or as a set, including a bonus e-book with access to online videos.

The field of aesthetic plastic surgery has witnessed a dramatic increase in breast and body-contouring procedures, in normal-weight patients as well as individuals who have lost massive amounts of weight. As such, new procedures and refinements of existing techniques have been developed since publication of the last edition. Volume three features three updated sections focused on breast surgery, female genital rejuvenation, and an expanded number of noninvasive and minimally invasive body contouring procedures. A new fourth section on gender-affirming surgery encompasses facial and genital approaches in this growing subspecialty.

Key Highlights

  • Thousands of high-quality illustrations enhance understanding of state-of-the-art approaches
  • New breast chapters include composite primary and revision breast augmentation and management of capsular contracture
  • New topics include liposuction and high definition liposculpture, screening and safety issues in massive-weight-loss patients, and brachioplasty

This critically acclaimed resource provides trainees and experienced practitioners with a solid foundation for learning basic principles and techniques in aesthetic surgery, with the ultimate goal of improving patient outcomes, developing innovations, and advancing the specialty.

Frequently asked questions

What is an e-book?
An e-book is the electronic edition of a printed book that is available as a file.
The content does not differ from the printed edition of the book. Thieme offers electronic books in PDF and EPUB formats.

What formats are there and how do they differ?
Thieme offers electronic books in PDF and EPUB formats.
The PDF format corresponds 1:1 to the printed book and has a fixed page layout. It is therefore ideal for computers, tablets and larger e-readers.
E-books in EPUB format adapt dynamically to the display size of the reading device. It is therefore particularly suitable for smaller devices such as smartphones and small-format tablets and e-readers.

Do I need a special program to open the e-book?
Free reading programs for e-books are available for all operating systems and reading devices: for PDFs, for example, Adobe Acrobat Reader, for EPUBs, for example, Adobe Digital Editions.

How does the download work?
You will find a download link on the order confirmation page and in your order confirmation email. Click on this link to start the download and save the file in a directory of your choice.

Can I read the e-book on multiple devices?
Yes, you can use your e-book on multiple reading devices.

Do I have to be online to read e-books?
No, after downloading to your reading device you can access the e-book offline at any time.

Are Thieme e-books copy-protected?
Yes, e-books are protected by a digital watermark. This means that there are no restrictions for you when using them.

Am I allowed to lend or sell e-books?
E-books are for private use only and may not be lent or sold.

Am I allowed to exchange or return the e-book?
Due to their nature, e-books are not suitable for return. Just like downloads of other electronic files (films, music or software), e-books are excluded from the right of withdrawal. A return or exchange is therefore not possible.
