La chirurgie esthétique des rides du visage.
La Presse médicale, No. 28, 353-360. 1919.
Passot was the first surgeon in France to perform facelifts. In this article with 1 illustration, Passot showed "sites of elliptic skin excision of the hairline, the forehead, and the temporal and preauricular areas to tighten the skin and an elliptic excision of skin and fat to reduce submental fat deposits" (Neligan, Plastic Surgery, 6, 184). Passot's article was probably the first published description of facelift technique.
