Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - True textbook.
Amazingly well written text with comprehensive review of the technique. It not only gives you excellent tips on HOW to inject but, most importantly, WHY to inject in a given area and WHAT response you may expect from the non-injected muscles. DVD is well edited, informative and with very to-the-point narration. Overall, if you want to learn about Botox well beyond what is now considered FDA approved use, there is no other text that is even half-way close.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Cosmetic Botox Text
This text is an excellent resource for physicians learning to use Botox for cosmetic use. There is a good balance between text and photos. The accompanying DVD is a nice bonus.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An excellent book
I am a neurologist and needed an easy, clear and very reliable review on its use for cosmetic purposes. I found that the book fullfilled my needs. It is easy to read, short, interesting, with enough information. It shows the great experience the authors have. The illustrations are clear and the photographs of different patients are very usefull. The DVD is very clear and didactic. I highly recomend the book.
