5.0 out of 5 stars Required Reading for any woman over 30!, 29 Nov 1998
By A Customer
Bravo! A fascinating indepth look at the historical, emotional and physical sides of cosmetic surgery from the First Lady of the field herself, Joan Kron. Warm and witty, this book is infused with personal experience, candid interviews and never before in print words of wisdom about a subject which fascinates us all. 'Lift' has something offer to any woman (or man) who has ever looked in the mirror and thought 'should I or shoudn't I?', anyone who has ever considered having something done, who has had it and will have it again, or who is just simply intrigued by this fastpaced, constantly evolving specialty. Joan has done her homework, more than any journalist before her. Finally, a book from an author who checks her facts, uncovers the truth, weeds through the hype, does her research and knows what she is talking about. I've bought several for colleagues and friends!

Wendy Lewis, Cosmetic Surgery Consultant & Writer

5.0 out of 5 stars Clear explanation of face-lift told in conversational manner, 26 Jan 1999
By A Customer
Joan Kron reads your mind as she tells you of her concerns about having a face-lift and then answers them in an intelligent, friendly manner. She has researched the topic thoroughly and is sharing her insights and experience with you. She chats with you while informing you about every aspect of choosing a surgeon, having the operation and recovering. I found the historical background glances into the various procedures to be fascinating and educational. The general tone of the book is optimistic but she states the risks and benefits clearly. Who could have thought such a detailed exploration of surgery could be such an absorbing, fast read?

A good book that almost makes cosmetic surgery seem fun. Definitely enjoyable. I decided to go another route, since it still is surgery with all its risks. Read more
