Although the concept of beauty has evolved through the years, beauty itself transcends all history and cultures to form a universal aspect of human civilization. Consequently, the cosmetic industry is growing in popularity, as people worldwide are seeking care from their board certified dermatologist and/or plastic surgeon to enhance their beauty. Cosmetics encompass a wide array of procedures, including anything from laser and light-based technology to chemical peels, makeup, and hair transplantation.

Beautiful Skin: A Dermatologist’s Guide to a Younger Looking You aims to provide accurate and relevant information to the general public, pertaining to the different cosmetic procedures frequently performed. In this digital age, people are often misled by inaccurate and biased information provided by some Internet sources. Therefore, the authors in this book explore the principles and relevant facts underlying every procedure, and work toward providing an educational description to the reader.

This book is meant to fill any gap in knowledge for those who have questions that remain unanswered or for those who are simply curious to know more about beauty and the procedures they are undergoing. In doing so, it will assist patients in making informed decisions regarding the cosmetic care they receive and thus, lead to satisfying outcomes for the patient.
