If you are searching for a book that provides an overview of the various modalities available for laser and nonablative skin rejuvenation, you may find this reference useful. Each chapter focuses on a different surgical resurfacing treatment: CO2 laser resurfacing, erbium: YAG laser resurfacing, electrosurgical skin resurfacing, and nonablative skin remodeling. There are many photographs showing the patients' skin response over time, from immediately after treatment one year postoperativethe book does a good job of discussing and summarizing studies about the different lasers and providing a comparison when the data is present. --Patricia Wong, MD, Stanford University Medical Center for Doody's Review Services Promo Copy
