Book Reviews

"This book addresses the many advances made with newer botulinum A toxins, expanded indications (aesthetic and medical), and better injection techniques. Drs. Carruthers are pioneers in the use of botulinum toxin A. This edition is a welcome update for honing injection techniques and cosmetic repertoire. The previous edition was published in 2018. The electronic version of the book includes videos demonstrating patient evaluations, decision making for injection placement for best results, and correct administration of an intradermal injection to minimize complications. The videos are narrated with useful tips and the injection administration is clearly visualized." ©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Patricia Wong, MD (Private Practice), Doody’s Score: 96 - 4 Stars!
