The Youth Equation

Advance praise for The Youth EquationThe 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 Medicineand Research Institute, and author of The Skin Type SolutionIn 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 YearsDr. 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
