The contributors to this book have spent time and effort presenting the cosmetic and plastic surgeon with information on the
techniques and uses of liposuction for cosmetic and non-cosmetic surgery
purposes. This constitutes the first book on cosmetic and non-cosmetic
liposuction. It provides a how-to-do manual for all procedures of cosmetic and
non-cosmetic liposuction and is abundantly illustrated. Although new technology
helps improve results, it is experience, care, and skill of the cosmetic
surgeon that is necessary to obtain optimal results that satisfy the patient.

ed), 230 pages, 142 illus, $219 list
This book
is the first atlas on chemical peels and has been significantly revised and
updated since the first edition so as to reflect the state of the art in the
field. The various types of chemical peel and peeling techniques,
including new combined procedures, are first discussed in a step-by-step manner
with the aid of supporting illustrations. Pathogenesis and treatment
options are then considered, with each author reporting on his or her personal
experience and preferred approach for different diseases and conditions,
including acne, rosacea, melasma, photoaging, postinflammatory
hyperpigmentation, actinic keratosis, and dark skin. An entirely new section
addresses how to deal with side-effects and complications of the different
procedures. This atlas has been specifically designed as a reference tool
for dermatologists who deal with cosmetology. In particular, by providing
clear and practical information on the different peeling procedures and their
indications, it will prove invaluable for dermatologists and other doctors who
