Reviews

“The book covers all aspects of cosmetic oculoplastic surgery very thoroughly. … This text will find its place in many a physician’s armamentarium of references. It should be of use to those who would like to increase their knowledge of the nuances of procedures used in the periocular area. For those who already feel skilled in such procedures, it does provide interesting and helpful ‘pearls’ that make one consider different approaches to various problems.” (Ted Wojno, Aesthetic Surgery Journal, Vol. 36 (2), 2016)
