lt;p>Aus den Rezensionen:

"... Inmitten der großen Anzahl der entsprechenden Fachbücher zeichnet sich dieses Buch dadurch aus, dass es sich ... um eine vereinfachte Darstellung der ... chirurgischen Eingriffe im Gesicht handelt ... Alle Kapitel enthalten eine gute Auswahl von älterer, klassischer Literatur und jüngsten Publikationen ... Das Layout des Buches ist sehr gefällig ... Das Buch ... füllt eine Lücke zwischen den ausführlichen Lehrbüchern über einzelne operative Methoden zur Gesichtsverjüngung und den Büchern, die einen Gesamtüberblick über dieses Thema liefern wollen. ... Es kann ohne Einschränkung empfohlen werden." (Luitgard Wiest, in: JDDG - Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, 2008, Vol. 6, Issue 5, S. 420)
