Aesthetic Dermatology: Current Perspectives

Aesthetic Dermatology: Current Perspectives (1st Edition) is a professional reference in aesthetic dermatology, edited by Dr Jaishree Sharad with Dr Maya Vedamurthy as Co-Editor, bringing together a wide panel of dermatology and aesthetic medicine contributors. The book is organized into 4 clearly defined sections spanning 39 chapters: Cosmeceuticals, Botulinum Toxin, Soft Tissue Augmentation, and Adjunctive Treatments, giving readers a concise, reader-friendly grounding across the full spectrum of modern aesthetic dermatology practice. Coverage moves from cosmeceutical fundamentals (cleansers, moisturizers, sunscreens, skin lightening and antiaging agents, lip, nail, and hair cosmeceuticals) through injectable science (patient selection, dilution and storage, and region-wise upper face, midface, and lower face/neck indications for botulinum toxin) to soft tissue augmentation with hyaluronic acid and non-hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, and finally to adjunctive procedures such as peels, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), thread lift, fractional lasers, laser hair removal, lasers for pigmentation, microneedling and microneedling radiofrequency, and body contouring. Procedure chapters discuss both advantages and disadvantages of each technique, helping practitioners weigh benefits against limitations rather than reading a one-sided account. Chapters combine structured subheadings, bulleted points, and comparative tables to make dense clinical information easy to scan, and the book is illustrated with more than 400 high-quality clinical photographs and illustrations, supported by an accompanying DVD and supplementary online videos (via emedicine360.com) that walk through step-by-step procedural details. Who This Book Is For: Dermatologists: a single reference spanning cosmeceuticals through advanced injectable and device-based aesthetic procedures for everyday clinic use. Cosmetologists: structured guidance on cosmeceutical formulations and skin/hair/nail care procedures relevant to salon and clinic settings. Aesthetic Physicians: procedure-focused chapters on botulinum toxin, dermal fillers, thread lift, and body contouring for injectable and energy-based aesthetic practice. Cosmetic Surgeons: facial anatomy chapters relevant to filler and botulinum toxin placement, plus dedicated complication-management guidance. Dermatology Postgraduates (MD/DNB): a reference covering the technique rationale, region-wise indications, and complication profiles behind commonly performed aesthetic procedures. Why This Book Helps: Consolidates a fragmented field: brings cosmeceuticals, botulinum toxin, dermal fillers, and adjunctive energy-based treatments into one structured reference instead of scattered single-topic titles. Balances benefit and risk: dedicated chapters on complications of botulinum toxin and complications of fillers help practitioners anticipate and manage adverse outcomes. Builds region-specific procedural literacy: separate upper face, midface, and lower face/neck chapters for both botulinum toxin and soft tissue fillers support systematic, area-wise treatment planning. Speeds visual learning: 400+ clinical photographs plus an accompanying DVD and online supplementary videos shorten the learning curve for newer aesthetic procedures. Keeps pace with newer modalities: covers microneedling radiofrequency, fractional lasers, and platelet-rich plasma alongside established filler and toxin techniques. Key Features: 39 chapters organized into 4 clear sections: Cosmeceuticals, Botulinum Toxin, Soft Tissue Augmentation, and Adjunctive Treatments. Dedicated region-wise chapters on botulinum toxin and dermal filler indications for the upper face, midface, and lower face and neck. More than 400 high-quality clinical photographs and illustrations throughout the text. Accompanying DVD with step-by-step procedural walkthroughs, plus supplementary videos accessible at emedicine360.com. Separate chapters on complications of botulinum toxin and complications of fillers, with coverage of both hyaluronic acid and non-hyaluronic acid filler science.
