PRAISE FOR The Park Avenue Face “An honest look behind the curtain at today’s advanced facial enhancement options from a world leader in the field and the one I trusted with my own face.” —Dr. Paul Nassif, plastic surgeon and television personality “I have known Dr. Jacono for many years and have always been very impressed by his superior surgical skills, teaching abilities, and amazing results in facial rejuvenation. His surgical knowledge and teaching abilities have helped educate younger surgeons from all over the world, making Dr. Jacono an internationally renowned expert and one of New York City’s premier facial plastic surgeons.” —Dr. Renato Saltz, internationally recognized plastic surgeon and past president of International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery “Dr. Jacono has been a go-to plastic surgery resource for over ten years. From commenting on celebrity procedures to discussing upcoming aesthetic trends, he’s always on the pulse of what’s hot.” —Beth Sobol, senior editor at E! News “Social media are replete with information on facial rejuvenation. Though some of the information may be useful, more commonly it is self-serving and far from accurate. This work by an experienced professional accurately and effectively provides details of available options in a balanced fashion.” —Foad Nahai, MD, editor in chief of the Aesthetic Surgery Journal and past president of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery “The happiest patients are the ones who do their research and find the best fit for them. This book will help you understand what you want and how to get it—no matter where you live.” —Jamie Rosen, contributing editor at Town & Country The Park Avenue Face The Park Avenue Face Secrets and Tips from a Top Facial Plastic Surgeon for Flawless, Undetectable Procedures and Treatments Andrew Jacono, MD, FACS BENBELLA BOOKS, INC.
