OUR PHILOSOPHY
There is nothing more difficult to define than beauty. I consider it impossible to define although, I find it so easy to recognize when I see it. Regardless of how great our understanding of harmony and beauty may be, as surgeons we are always faced with challenging limitations, unlike the painter and the poet for whom space is less restrictive in relation to that which the surgeon’s imagination can create. Because of this, we are often overcome by a frustration complex when dealing as we are with a human being, where the additions and subtractions are more often subject to the laws of anatomy than to the rules of harmony.

Nevertheless, it would be impossible to manipulate the tissues we must work with, unless we possess a fine notion of balance and harmony. Therefore, not only for our spiritual well-being, but also for the perfection of our skills, a close intimacy with creativity is indespensible.
