Reviewer:Kathleen E Kramer, MD (Stanford University)
Description:This atlas aims to provide information and photographs on many of the cosmetic techniques practiced by dermatologists today.
Purpose:In a succinct yet complete manner, the techniques, instructions, side effects, and management of the patient are discussed. There is a lot of literature on these subjects, but usually scattered. It is very helpful to have all of this presented in one volume and in an unbiased manner, and mindful of side effect profiles.
Audience:The book is written for anyone who performs, or plans to perform, minimally invasive cosmetic procedures. It would be useful for physicians as well as physician extenders in a dermatologist's or plastic surgeon's office. Dermatology or plastic surgery residents would also find this helpful. Even patients, contemplating a procedure, would find the descriptions and photos elucidating. The authors are authorities in this field.
Features:Chapters are arranged by disease or problem, i.e., pigmentation or vascular alterations. Within each chapter specific disorders are addressed. Cosmetic techniques for improvement are outlined and detailed, step-by-step instructions, side effects, and management of the patient are presented with each. The book is replete with good quality photos and tables. It is easy to read, straightforward and complete. However, the editing was not too careful and there are several misidentified photos and typos.
Assessment:This atlas provides clear, succinct, information about several minimally invasive cosmetic techniques that would be very useful in the office ofanyone who performs these techniques or who discusses them with patients. I found the book fascinating and could not put it down until I had read it cover-to-cover.
