Review
This review is from: BodySculpture: Plastic Surgery of the Body for Men & Women (Paperback) I have seen many books about plastic surgery on the shelves, but this one is my favorite. It has the most pictures of any of the books, and it gives me more information than any of the other ones. Personally, I was interested in lipsouction and breast implants, and Bodysculpture gave me all of the information that I needed and wanted. I would recommend Bodysculpture to anyone who is interested in in-depth information on almost any procedure associated with plastic surgery. --A Customer
An excellent resource for anyone considering plastic surgery. This book is very informative and very simple to understand. Even my plastic surgeon was impressed with how well informed I was at my initial consult. He even asked for the name of this book so he could recommend this book to his patients as a resource prior to surgery. I've been researching this topic for two years and this book, "Body Sculpture: Plastice Surgery For Men and Women" is definetly the most valuable source of information I've come across. To anyone considering plastic surgery, buy this book and read it before your consult. You'll be glad you did. --A Customer
I have run a popular plastic surgery resource website, IMPLANTFORUM.COM, for over 4 years and I can t think of a thing Dr. Engler neglected to mention in this book, BodySculpture! Dr. Engler covers everything. From what to expect before, during & after surgery to the emotional aspect of undergoing plastic surgery. Each procedure (breast augmentation, breast reduction, liposuction and tummy tucks) is explained thoroughly, yet in easy to understand layman s terms. He details what you ll get from a consult and all your options, to how to prepare for surgery and what transpires during surgery. He lists the risks of each surgery and what to expect when recovering and he does not sugar coat! Bravo! The book includes lots of before and afters of each surgery, which is a great reference if you are planning on surgery or even if you are only contemplating surgery. Dr. Engler is a graduate of Yale and is a ABPS board-certified plastic surgeon (the ONLY plastic surgery board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties). He was listed in 'The Best New York Metro Area Doctors' and in New York Magazine's The Best Doctors in New York. His office is in New York City. --Rebecca Fuller

I truly recommend this book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bodysculpture: Plastic Surgery of the Body for Men & Women (Paperback)
Body Sculpture is a wonderful resource for people interested in plastic surgery. It covers all of the important issues prospective patients need to be aware of. It is extremely important to be an educated patient. This book gives you the power to get involved and be aware of your choices. Dr. Engler does a great job in presenting the facts in an easy to read manner. I have a website designed to educate patients about plastic surgery so I'm always happy to see information of this quality become available to the public. Since I myself have had plastic surgery I can tell you how important it is to be informed. I encourage you to read this book if you are considering cosmetic surgery. The photos and the step by step information will give you a better understanding of what to expect before during and after surgery. Knowing the facts before you consider a consultation with a surgeon is always a good idea. I truly recommend this book! Nicole at Implantinfo.com
