From the Back Cover

I hope that this book has had a two-fold impression on you.
First, that liposuction and its procedures have become clear
in case you're considering liposculpture. You've been given
the tools to choose a practitioner as well as the appropriate
surgery.
Secondly, I hope you've gained respect for the research and
technology that have resulted in what we enjoy today as the
best medical care in the world.
We truly are experiencing the most profound acceleration in
medical discoveries, improvements, and a coming together
world-wide to tackle the questions to which, until now, there
have been no answers.
Let's hope that, as one people living on this planet, we continue
a respectful and productive dialog that results in even
more medical miracles in the future.
