This book is first of its nature. Till now no such type of book has been published. This book is having depth with the fundamental of ancient surgeons as described by ancient surgeons with its modern correlance which will helpful to both under graduate and post graduate students of Ayurvedic & modern scholars.
It is hoped that this book is sufficiently comprehensive to guide plastic surgeons. This chapter of recent advances in aesthetic surgery has been illustrated with figures. Main aim of this book is to provide a mature approach to basic principles of plastic surgery in Ayurveda. This book contains translation on commentary of the ancient Ayurvedic text with critical analysis of the subject matter in the light of modern plastic surgery.
I hope this edition will show a path for both Ayurvedic & modern surgeons of this field.
