More About This Book

Overview

Advance praise for The Youth Equation

"The Youth Equation introduces the new concept of the 'skin's virtual age,' or SVA, which helps the reader carefully review the factors that have influenced her skin over the years. Once the SVA is determined, Dr. Dover gives sound recommendations for skin care products and procedures that can help turn back the clock (or at least slow its ticking). His advice is based on scientific evidence and many years of experience. My favorite part of the book is the thought-provoking questions found in each chapter that help the reader learn more about skin science. Dr. Dover proves in this book, as he has proven to dermatologists for years, that he is a great teacher and a trustworthy source of information."
–Leslie Baumann, M.D.
Director of the University of Miami Cosmetic Medicine and Research Institute, and author of The Skin Type Solution

"In the ever-growing market of cosmetic skin care and in-office procedures, Dr. Dover provides the reader with the knowledge to educate and guide the individual with her or his choices. An excellent book for those seeking the latest information in the cosmetic arena."
–Frederic Brandt, M.D.
author of 10 Minutes/10 Years

"Dr. Dover presents honest, scientifically based explanations of common cosmetic concerns and their treatment in language everyone can understand. It demystifies a complicated subject and helps consumers get through the barrage of skin care misinformation so many of us are subject to."
–Jean and Alastair Carruthers, M.D.
coauthors of Textbook of Facial Rejuvenation

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal

Ever wonder if Botox, Restylane, or Olay Regenerist serum works? Boston dermatologist Dover tries to answer all of the questions surrounding the latest and greatest in youth-enhancing dermatological treatments. He includes a quiz to determine your skin's "virtual age" and presents his home-treatment plans for cleaning skin and treating skin damage. He discusses commonsense items like the effects on the skin's appearance of smoking, sun damage, and a healthy diet. Be aware that Dover does include his own skin-care line (CVS Pharmacy's Skin Effects) in his list of recommended products; however, the conflict of interest this might normally cause seems to be negated by the breadth of his list of recommended products, including low-priced items like Dove soap and high-priced La Prairie, and his insistence throughout the book that you don't have to use expensive products or office procedures to have good-looking skin. For those interested, this is a nice take on all of the anti-aging treatments and products available and a good overview of how skin ages and how to care for it. Recommended for public libraries.
—Elizabeth Williams
