An overview of aesthetic surgery of the face. [Journal Article]
Ann R Australas Coll Dent Surg 1998 Oct.:131-3.
This article explores the interface between the aesthetic aspects of dentistry and complementary cosmetic surgery of the face. Dentists do not often think of facial cosmetic surgery and plastic surgeons do not often think of aesthetic dentistry as being complementary to their endeavours. This paper is designed to help breach this gap. An outline is given of the various cosmetic surgery procedures used on the face with emphasis on those in the perioral region. Procedures discussed include meloplasty, blepharoplasty, laser resurfacing, liposculpture, lip augmentation, rhinoplasty, chin augmentation, correction of prominent ears, and skin care.
