ABOUT THE BOOK
The calendar and mirror may say 40-something or 50, but the spirit inside says 30. Yet for many women, plastic surgery is too expensive, and most don’t want to end up having that “Oscar-freeze” look. With more than fifteen years’ experience, Dr. Irwin distills all her expertise to help women look their best with minimum fuss and expense. Most women have a finite list of issues they’d like to correct: undereye bags, upper lip lines, that annoying forehead crease. Akin to having a personal skin consultation, Dr. Irwin walks readers through each problem area. Whether recommending a new product, filler, or laser treatment, she arms women with practical tips they can use, including which of the latest technologies to trust (and avoid); how to look younger on a strict time line; and how to maintain that youthful glow once you get it back!
"I have always wanted to visit a cosmetic dermatologist and ask them what I should be doing about maintaining my skin - which products should I use, etc. But I have never gotten up the nerve to actually do it. This book is wonderful as it is a great resource to surveying all that is out there in the market that can be done for improving skin without surgery (Botox, restylane, repair creams, peels, etc.).
I am in my late 30s and have pretty good skin but now I have learned of a few simple things I can be doing to maintain the good skin I have for as long as I can. There are concrete product recommendations based on your budget included in this book. I researched some of the suggested products on my favorite product review site and I have already bought 2 new types of products to try - one is even a drugstore brand.
The book is written in an easy to read format, like you are having a conversation with your own dermatologist. I think it's a great reference source for women (or men) who are curious about what options they have to have better skin. "
