The definitive guide to adapting cosmetic procedures to skin of color A Doody's Core Title!
"This book is informative about treating patients with darker skin and I would
recommend it to any dermatologist who sees these patients.
The authors' presentations are unbiased and their conclusions are clear. I know I will reread
many of the chapters when I see patients with skin types 4-6. 3 Stars."--Doody's Review Service
