Evidence-Based Cosmetic Breast Surgery cover

Insisting on an evidence-based approach, Dr. Swanson brings the light of science to bear on the many controversies in cosmetic breast surgery today. Conventional wisdom is challenged with factual analysis, made possible by Dr. Swanson’s large body of published research. In his hallmark detailed style, the author lays the foundation with clinical studies, measurements, and patient-reported outcomes. The work is all here in one place for the first time, leading to some surprising conclusions. For plastic surgeons who prefer data to dogma, Evidence-Based Cosmetic Breast Surgery provides a unique and invaluable resource.

“An excellent book and offers a unique opportunity to journey through the author’s own learning curve and career, which has been focused on constant self-assessment and scientific scrutiny of his own practice and results. The topics covered are well described, and well supported with measurable evidence. In this competitive health care climate, it is refreshing to see a plastic surgery colleague share his practice secrets with the masses, and successfully publish the first true evidence-based textbook in cosmetic breast surgery.” (Donald W. Buck II, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, March, 2018)

“This book delves into the effectiveness of various cosmetic breast surgeries. The author presents cosmetic breast surgery through his singular perspective using observational studies and the scientific method. … For those wishing to delve into alternative opinions and thoughts regarding cosmetic breast surgery, this book will be an interesting read.” (Jeffrey S. Rosenthal, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2017)
