From the Inside Flap

Whether they're on the red carpet or close up on the big screen, Hollywood celebrities know how to use the most up-to-date treatments to keep their faces looking young and flawless. Now you can, too. In Beverly Hills Beauty Secrets, a top Beverly Hills dermatologist and a cosmetic surgeon join forces to demystify all of today's key surgical and nonsurgical options, from Botox and lasers to the latest surgical techniques. They guide you to the right anti-aging program for your face and skin type, with real-life examples of what has worked for their celebrity clients.

You'll find detailed information on the types and effectiveness of topical applications available to help prevent and reverse the aging process, from copper peptide creams to Retin-A to organic beauty products. You'll learn about the four ways in which the face ages and the types of treatment used for each type of aging:

• Wrinkles (fine lines): lasers or deep chemical peels

• Furrows (deep expression lines): fillers

• Laxity (looseness): Thermage, Titan, Re-Firme, Accent, face-lift

• Atrophy (loss of skin, fat, and bone tissue): fillers, multilevel fat grafting, surgical implants

From what the treatments involve and how they work to what they can achieve, you'll learn what you need to know to find the right doctor and procedures for you.

We've come a long way from the days when simple soap, moisturizer, and makeup were the only tools available to help us look good. With Beverly Hills Beauty Secrets, you can take advantage of the latest facial rejuvenation techniques and the secrets of celebrities who use them so you can look your best every day of your life!

This review is from: Beverly Hills Beauty Secrets: A Prominent Dermatologist and Plastic Surgeon's Insider Guide to Facial Rejuvenation (Hardcover)

This book is packed w/ current information on looking better. It's like having a super long consult w/ an awesome Dr. I know a lot about these procedures, and this book is not a lot of BS just to fill pages. It is actually very smartly written but easy to understand.
