Dr. Niamtu’s Major Textbooks

Although Dr. Niamtu has written 5 small texts over his career, in 2011 he was asked to write a major textbook “Cosmetic Facial Surgery” by Elsevier Inc, , the largest medical book publisher in the world.  This was an extreme honor and major work commitment.  The second edition was published in 2018 and the current and 3rd edition was published in 2023.  In 2019 Dr. Niamtu was asked by Elsevier to write a textbook solely on face and neck lift surgery and “The Art and Science of Facelift Surgery” was published in 2019 and the second edition in 2023.  Dr. Niamtu considers writing these 5 major textbooks on  the biggest and hardest accomplishments in his career and his legacy in the field.  He has written over 31 chapters in other major textbooks over  his career.

       
 
 

All of these textbooks have been translated into multiple languages for international teaching
