Very thorough and some great "over the counter" advice
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is a great read for anyone considering cosmetic surgery--you get clinical advice, but down home advice as well. It takes a lot of the confusion out of a subject that can be overwhelming, and scary. It is a nice writing style and easy to understand. I recommend another book, from a slightly different perspective-- "Cosmetic Surgery Without Fear" is written by a cosmetic surgery consumer advocate, and not a doctor. You get some information that many doctors may not divulge. You are also given the critical information to look for when selecting your doctor and resources to make sure you are avoiding the horror stories we all fear. Get them both, you have all the perspectives covered.
Here is book that lives up to its title!
