‎Die Ästhetische Chirurgie und ihre soziale Bedeutung. Deutsche von der Verfasserin erweiterte und neubearbeitete Auflage. Ãœbersetzt von Dr. A. Hardt-Paris.‎

‎1932. Mit einem Geleitwort von Prof. E. Meirowsky. - Leipzig Johann Ambrosius Barth 1932 8° 71 pp. 112 Abb. orig. kart. Einband; Titelseite etwas fleckig. First German Edition of "La Chirurgie Esthétique"! Noël's "famous book" Wallace marked the end of the 'pioneering period' of cosmetic surgery and that since then surgeons have only been concerned with 'technical variations and improvements in the operations of their predecessors'. Suzanne Noël known to her colleagues as Madame Noël was the first and most famous woman to practice cosmetic surgery working in France at the beginning of last century. She was also a feminist: a suffragette an advocate of women's right to work and one of the founders of soroptimism an international women's organization. She wrote one of the first medical handbooks about cosmetic surgery in 1926 thereby laying the groundwork for the profession as we know it today Rogers 1971. Suzanne Blanche Marguerite Gros was born in 1878 in Laon France of well-to-do parents. As the only surviving daughter of four children she was doted on by her parents and received the usual education reserved for middle-class girls: classics embroidery and painting. At 19 she made a 'good marriage' to a doctor 9 years older than she Henri Pertat. In 1905 she embarked on her medical studies; studies which she probably could not have undertaken without the consent and active support of her husband Jacquemin 1988:13. Noël later claimed that she became a doctor in order to work with her husband in his dermatology practice. She excelled in her studies and following an illness and the birth of her daughter passed the highly competitive 'Internat des Hospitaux de Paris' in 1912 as the 4th of 67 students. This was an exceptional performance for a woman - one which as her official biographer notes 'could only have been achieved by extremely hard work and a brilliant intelligence' Jacquemin 1988:16. In 1919 her husband died and she remarried a fellow student in dermatology André Noël who had just returned from the front. He quickly finished his 'Internat' graduating at the bottom of his class and handed in a thesis which was probably based on work which his wife had been doing on the 'douche filiforme' an installation for bathing patients with skin problems. Their marriage was short-lived. Following the death of Suzanne's daughter André became severely depressed and in 1924 he threw himself into the Seine in front of his wife. Devastated Suzanne Noël turned to her work for solace and it was to remain her passion until her death in 1954. Noël first became interested in cosmetic surgery in 1912 when she noticed that the famous actress Sarah Bernhardt returned from her American tour miraculously rejuvenated. Bernhardt was at that time well over sixty. Curious Noël began experimenting by pinching the skin of her own face in different places to see if she could get the same effect. Surprised at what she was able to accomplish she began to experiment more seriously operating on anesthetized rabbits whose skin is similar in 'delicacy and elasticity to human skin'. The advent of World War I allowed Noël to gain expertise in treating wounded soldiers for facial injuries and in 1916 she undertook further surgical training for operating on disfiguring scars as well as her old 'hobby' the rejuvenation of wrinkled faces. Noël situates the beginning of her devotion to cosmetic surgery in one of her first face-lift operations on a woman who 'due to her age was not able to earn her own living' - an operation which was apparently so successful that the patient was immediately able to find a job. Noël claims to have been so impressed by this fortuitous result that she decided to make cosmetic surgery her vocation and from that point on did not look back. Noël's medical career spanned the period from 1916 to 1950 and can be separated into two distinct periods. When she started practicing plastic surgery was not an established specialty and hospitals did not admit surgeons who did exclusively plastic surgery. Noël set up her own clinic at home becoming one of the first cosmetic surgeons in France. Her operations were limited to minor surgery most notably face-lifts and eyelid corrections. She apparently quickly became well-known drawing many 'world-renowned persons of the fashion world and of the European aristocracy' Regnault 1971:134. With the onset of World War II she gave up her private clinic and performed operations in the Clinique des Bluets in Paris where she could do major surgery. According to her student Regnault Noël was a versatile surgeon who performed many different and often quite bold interventions - reshaping the breasts slimming the abdomen and arms excising fat from the legs and or eliminating wrinkles in the hand by injecting a sclerosing solution into the blood vessels. Although she is credited with initiating the Biesenburger method of mammoplasty in France it is her technique of face-lifting in particular the 'petite opération' or 'mini-lift' for which she continues to be known today see for example Stephenson 1970; Rogers 1971; Gonzlez-Ulloa 1985. At a time when women were struggling to gain a foothold in the medical profession Noël appears to have won considerable recognition for her work. She was awarded the Legion of Honour from the Foreign Office in 1928 for being a 'doctor of unusual skill' whose lectures and methods were a credit to her country Jacquemin 1988:33. In addition to writing a widely-read book about cosmetic surgery which was translated into German in 1932 Die Äesthetische Chirurgie und ihre soziale Bedeutung physicians from all over the world visited Paris to observe her work. She traveled extensively in the USA Germany and Austria giving lectures and demonstrating her surgical techniques. In 1930 two documentary films showing Noël operating were made in the Charité in Berlin and later written up in Medizinische Welt. She was the first woman in France to become the president of a medical society - that of aesthetic morphobiology. Her name is included in most historical accounts of modern cosmetic surgery where she is referred to as 'the world's first famous female cosmetic plastic surgeon' Rogers 1971. - cf.
