The perfect book for your young future doctor!
Written by physicians, Plastic Surgery for Kids is a charming, easy-to-understand introduction to the medical specialty that repairs and reconstructs the body: plastic surgery! With its beautiful illustrations and simple explanations, this book teaches children (and adults alike!) about the important role that plastic surgeons play in improving the function, form, and appearance of the body. This can be a baby shower gift, birthday gift, learning resource for kids, white elephant gift for adults, or gag gift for medical students. This installment of the Medical School for Kids book series is the best way to introduce basic concepts in plastic surgery to our next generation of doctors.
In this book, you will learn about...
- Congenital anomalies, such as cleft lip/palate, craniosynostosis, microtia, and syndactyly
- Similarities and differences between reconstructive and cosmetic surgery
- Surgical techniques such as skin grafts, skin flaps, tissue expansion, and fat grafting
... and more!
