Book Description
Do You Look as Good as You Feel? If you don't, perhaps it's because you're noticing common signs of aging—sagging of the skin on your neck, cheeks, or eyelids. If these outward signs are affecting the way you feel inside, perhaps you're considering taking action through cosmetic surgery. You're thinking maybe a facelift would rejuvenate your appearance. Yet, you're not sure what's involved or whether cosmetic surgery is right for you. This book can help you explore the possibilities. The authors are board-certified facial plastic surgeons and have performed thousands of facelifts and other cosmetic procedures. They understand that the decision to have cosmetic surgery is a very personal and important one. In Your Complete Guide to Facelifts, they present the facts about facial cosmetic surgery clearly and concisely, and answer such questions as: &• Am I a candidate for a facelift? &• What type of facelift would give me the best result? &• Should I consider other procedures such as an eyelid lift? &• How soon can I go out in public after a facelift? &• Will I have post-surgical pain? &• How long will the results last? This book contains 75 color illustrations and photos, including dozens of photos of "before and after" pictures of those who've had facelifts, eyelid lifts, brow lifts, and skin rejuvenation. A resource section, glossary, and index are also included.
