The acclaimed second edition of The Facial Nerve presented a comprehensive overview of all facial nerve disorders. This book, extracted from one section of that text, focuses exclusively on treating facial paralysis. Top surgeons provide illustrated, step-by-step surgical instructions for a wide range of techniques, with hundreds of high-quality photographs demonstrating before-and-after results of each procedure. The book begins with a history of facial rehabilitative surgery, and goes on to cover patient selection, indications, contraindications, techniques, complications, and more. You will also benefit from valuable tips on non-surgical methods of enhancing results, such as makeup, hair styling, or choice of clothing. All facial plastic surgeons -- as well as oculoplastic surgeons, otolaryngologists, oralmaxillofacial surgeons, and skull base surgeons -- will find this to be a concise and useful guide to treating facial paralysis. Residents will also benefit from the wealth of information provided here.
