My aim in writing this book is to present the truth regarding the methods of aesthetic plastic surgery of the head and body - the truth as I have come to perceive it in the course of more than 20 years' experience in the field. After this long period of quiet sedimentation and elaboration, of gradual accumulation of thoughts and ideas, I feel the urge to share with my colleagues, especially the younger surgeons amongst them, the fruits of my experience. Although the procedures used in aesthetic plastic surgery when I en tered the specialty two decades ago have since evolved, the basic prin ciples have remained the same. Time has given me the opportunity to improve my own techniques as well as to benefit from the work of many others who have also contributed to the progress of the spe cialty. This long process of maturation endangers the contemporari ness of a work such as this, but I have taken great pains to create a detailed, up-to-date presentation, enhanced by step-by-step illustra tions, of the surgical procedures that, in my hands, have been of value.

This book is a collection of short accounts of the lives and works of surgeons who began to use techniques in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries that were to form the basis of reconstructive and cosmetic surgery and give rise to the specialty of plastic surgery. Descriptions of the intricate and novel surgical operations undertaken by these pioneers are included, but the emphasis is above all on stories of widely varying and fascinating characters, from the strange or eccentric, such as Hippolyte Morestin, to the serious or ambitious and a few, such as the Dutchman Johannes Esser and the legendary Sir Howard Gillies, who were accomplished in other fields, including business, sport and art. It is related how the two World Wars played a key role in the development of new techniques and how the endeavors of the pioneers were sometimes rejected by obstructive or abusive colleagues, impacting on careers and reputations. Pioneers in Plastic Surgery will appeal to all with an interest in the history of the discipline and the figures who shaped its birth and growth.
