Harold Gillies: Pioneering Plastic surgeon

“This was a strange new art, and unlike the student today, who is weaned on small scar excisions and gradually graduated to a single hare-lip, we were suddenly asked to produce half a face.”

Sir Archibald McIn Indoe: : ‘The Maestro’

“When I looked down

n the operating table

and saw I had to replace a pair of burned eyelids for a boy of 21 I felt God come down my right arm.”

SLIDE 15

Harold Gillies said to McIndoe:

“You will be a hopeless duffer if you do not bear in mind that this kind of surgery is not just opening up, taking out and sewing up again. A great percentage of our practice is beauty surgery and here perfection is necessary. Reconstructive surgery is an attempt to bring a mutilated face or body or limb back to normal; cosmetic surgery is an attempt to surpass the normal…”

SLIDE 16

“…you will never be able to call yourself a plastic surgeon until you are adept at both. You will be a menace until you

do. Anyone can cut off a bit of nose, but the art and skill is

how you shape it afterwards.” Taken from Faces from the fire

Pio ioneering approaches: Patient care McIndoe wrote at the Mayo Clinic: “I am continually being told that it will do no good to my skill or my peace of mind if I take too personal an interest in the cases I see at the hospital, but it is hard advice to follow. I don’t like to see people suffer and I think pain is damnable.”
