Book The Fine Art of Looking Younger

Download or read book The Fine Art of Looking Younger written by Amiya Prasad and published by Mdpublish. This book was released on 2010-09-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "The Fine Art of Looking Younger", one of New York's most successful and innovative cosmetic surgeons, illustrates why a super specialist's skill delivers the best, most satisfying, aesthetically pleasing results across a wide cross section of patients, both male and female. As one of only 500 super specialists worldwide in the oculofacial specialty, Dr. Prasad is able to effectively and flexibly work within the confines of unusually exacting, highly refined techniques -- many of which he personally developed. His surgeon's artistic eye and keen ability offer patients the luxury of truly beautiful results that are completely natural, safe, less invasive, with long lasting rejuvenation . He offers lively descriptive chapters on the brow area, eyes, mid face and neck regions, and more, to help readers appreciate a variety of surgical and non-surgical options, all explained in an informative and easy-to-understand narration. Dr. Prasad demystifies the complexity of lasers, explains advantages of the trichophytic closure, illustrates how fillers are best used and why generic, one-size-fits-all- facelifts marketed through TV infomercials do a serious disservice to patients.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are only certain people considered physically beautiful? What is it - specifically - within their anatomy that these lucky few individuals possess that most of us simply do not? Can we somehow objectively test our own anatomy for beauty and then use our test results as a guide to change our physical appearance? Can we join this highly elite group of physically beautiful people? Dr. Andrew Hayduke's groundbreaking book is the first of its kind to explore a potential scientific explanation for why only certain faces and breasts appear physically beautiful. After decades of experience as a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills and Palm Springs, California, Dr. Hayduke shares his unique perspective on this fascinating subject. The Golden Ratio Within the Human Face and Breast unveils the mysterious underlying secret blueprint for human physical beauty that exists hidden deep within the anatomic layout of attractive (i.e., beautiful) faces and breasts. The Golden Ratio Within the Human Face and Breast will:1) Convince you to look beyond the expression "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and consider something far more intriguing as the true explanation for physical beauty. 2) Provide evidence that beauty is an objective quality rather than a mere subjective opinion. 3) Provide an all-access backstage pass to the secret clinical analysis methodologies used by a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon. 4) Illustrate how the faces and breasts of average-looking people can be transformed to a more beautiful appearance with the help of Dr. Hayduke's state-of-the-art facial and breast beauty tests. 5) Disclose a detailed description of the once-secret inner mechanism of both the Hayduke Facial Analysis test and the Hayduke Breast Analysis test-including the exact specifications of each anatomic test grid used within Dr. Hayduke's patented beauty analysis methodologies. 6)Explain the basics of the golden ratio (also known as the divine proportion, golden section, golden mean, golden proportion, divine section and golden number). 7) Illustrate how the golden ratio relationship of 1.618 to 1.0 is secretly hidden within many beautiful world-famous works of art, architecture, logos, and even nature.

Book excerpt: Your face defines you. It influences how people perceive you at work, at play, and even at home. But what if something about your face doesn't make you feel like the real you? In The Park Avenue Face, dual board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Andrew Jacono reveals how to achieve flawless, undetectable plastic surgery so you can fix what you don't like, restore what you've lost, or prevent signs of aging. From his elite Park Avenue aesthetic surgery center, Dr. Jacono has enhanced tens of thousands of faces not by prescribing an arbitrary standard of beauty, but by amplifying each patient's individual beauty for totally natural results. A global authority in advanced facial plastic surgery, he has presented clinical research and conducted live surgery in front of peer audiences at over 100 plastic surgery symposiums around the world, including at Harvard, Yale and Stanford Universities. Now, he's ready to share his expertise with you. High-end Park Avenue clients want to fight the signs of aging while highlighting their best features.

Park Avenue clients want to look powerful yet approachable, wise yet fresh, and above all, natural. With Dr. Andrew Jacono's advice, you can have the Park Avenue Face no matter who you are or where you live. The Park Avenue Face also highlights a trend unique to the United States—a distinct difference between conceptions of beauty on the west coast versus the east coast. Where the West Coast Style is often about changing your personal signature, the East Coast Style prioritizes maintaining your personal signature. Through this up-close look at coastal trends, the reader will learn how to define and achieve a natural look—a face that reflects the person they have always been, and the person they strive to be, not someone they don't recognize in the mirror. If you want a face with character and depth that looks ageless and don't want a stretched, artificial or generic look, Dr. Jacono will show you how to get there. If you are considering any kind of facial enhancement, from minor and non-invasive treatments such as simple injections or a laser treatment to more involved surgical procedures such as a full-on facelift, this is your resource. The Park Avenue Face will show you how to avoid the quacks, the fads, the financial waste, and the dangers. Dr. Jacono will help you determine how you want to look and how best to get there. Featuring fascinating patient anecdotes, dozens of before-and-after photographs showing what the various procedures can accomplish and line drawings by veteran medical illustrator William Winn, this comprehensive guide will fully prepare you to step into a doctor's office and discuss your facial enhancement options. You'll know how each treatment works, how long you will take to recover, and how much change you can expect. If there is something about your face you think is holding you back—decide if making a change is right for you. Let The Park Avenue Face guide you to becoming your best you.

Book Making the Body Beautiful

    Book Details:
  • Author : Sander L. Gilman
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 1999
  • ISBN : 9780691070537
  • Pages : 422 pages

Download or read book Making the Body Beautiful written by Sander L. Gilman and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nose reconstructions have been common in India for centuries. South Korea, Brazil, and Israel have become international centers for procedures ranging from eyelid restructuring to buttock lifts and tummy tucks. Argentina has the highest rate of silicone implants in the world. Around the globe, aesthetic surgery has become a cultural and medical fixture. Sander Gilman seeks to explain why by presenting the first systematic world history and cultural theory of aesthetic surgery. Touching on subjects as diverse as getting a "nose job" as a sweet-sixteen birthday present and the removal of male breasts in seventh-century Alexandria, Gilman argues that aesthetic surgery has such universal appeal because it helps people to "pass," to be seen as a member of a group with which they want to or need to identify. Gilman begins by addressing basic questions about the history of aesthetic surgery. What surgical procedures have been performed? Which are considered aesthetic and why? Who are the patients? What is the place of aesthetic surgery in modern culture? He then turns his attention to that focus of countless human anxieties: the nose. Gilman discusses how people have reshaped their noses to repair the ravages of war and disease (principally syphilis), to match prevailing ideas of beauty, and to avoid association with negative images of the "Jew," the "Irish," the "Oriental," or the "Black." He examines how we have used aesthetic surgery on almost every conceivable part of the body to try to pass as younger, stronger, thinner, and more erotic. Gilman also explores some of the extremes of surgery as personal transformation, discussing transgender surgery, adult circumcision and foreskin restoration, the enhancement of dueling scars, and even a performance artist who had herself altered to resemble the Mona Lisa. The book draws on an extraordinary range of sources. Gilman is as comfortable discussing Nietzsche, Yeats, and Darwin as he is grisly medical details, Michael Jackson, and Barbra Streisand's decision to keep her own nose. The book contains dozens of arresting images of people before, during, and after surgery. This is a profound, provocative, and engaging study of how humans have sought to change their lives by transforming their bodies.
