Book Reviews

"Facial and body rejuvenation is a burgeoning concern among patients. However, it is impossible for dermatologists to evaluate the hundreds of new aesthetic medical devices for sale, let alone purchase all of them. This book offers a consumer report critique of current lasers, phototherapy, ultrasound, microneedling, and radiofrequency equipment that cosmetic dermatologists need to offer in their practice. It objectively explains the differences between similar devices, indications for usage, and expected results based on scientific studies." ©Doody’s Review Service, 2023, Patricia Wong, MD (Private Practice) Doody's Score: 4 Stars!
