With remarkable clarity, precision, and depth, Dr. Jean
M. Loftus, a board certified plastic surgeon, explains exactly
what cosmetic plastic surgery can and cannot accomplish. Written
in an inviting and understandable style, these are just some of
the issues the book confronts: the hidden costs of cosmetic surgery
and how to uncover them; telltale signs that indicate you have
had cosmetic surgery, and how to get your surgeon to avoid them;
how to avoid everyday medications that can ruin your results or
lengthen your recovery; the difference between lasers, chemical
peels, and dermabrasion - and how to determine which one is most
appropriate in your case; different techniques for facelifts and
eyelid surgery, and why some work better than others; the newest
procedures such as Botox and ultrasonic liposuction - are they
really better than the old standards?; how to tell if you need
liposuction or a tummy tuck, and what is involved in each; the
facts about silicone gel breast implants and why only saline implants
are now available; the truth about cellulite, thigh lifts, spider
veins, age spots, permanent makeup; and just about everything
else available in the cosmetic plastic surgery arena.
Here's what some renowned plastic surgeons had to say
about it:
"This book so clearly conveys the concepts of plastic surgery
with such precision, insight, ethics, and conscience that it is
a must to read."
Lawrence B. Robins, M.D., F.A.C.S.,
President and Chairman of the Board of The American Society for
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 1997-1999
"Dr. Loftus is uniquely suited to author this book. As a
woman, she has insight into the minds of other women. As a plastic
surgeon, she understands the procedures, their benefits, and their
risks, as only a plastic surgeon can. As a writer, she can communicate
each concept with unmatched clarity... Opening this book is the
smartest thing you can do."
Henry W. Neale, M.D.,
Chairman of the American Board of Plastic Surgery, 1995-1996
"The chapters encompass the entire spectrum of aesthetic
surgery, and the information is crisp, clear, correct, and current."
Luis O. Vasconez, M.D.,
One of the pioneers of endoscopic cosmetic surgery
