5.0 out of 5 stars a wonderful guide for physicians learning aesthetic procedures, September 14, 2008

By	Christopher B. Cutter (Louisiana) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have purchased 4 of the books in this series and I am delighted with the content, presentation and supplied DVDs. If a practitioner wants to approach a new skill/procedure in his/her office, they will want hands-on symposiums, didactic lectures, and a reference textbook. This book and the ones on chemical peels, Botox, and laser txs are just what the doc oredered. You will not be disappointed.
