Reviews:

This Atlas is a very handy book, which includes numerous diagrams, charts and high resolution photographs. In addition, a DVD is included with actual demonstrations of procedures described in the book in which the authors share their insights, techniques and expertise with the reader. A hands on, practical book useful to anyone who has an interest in even the most minor cosmetic procedure. No cosmetic surgeon can afford not to read this book. Sadr, January 2009
