Beauty, Aging and AntiAging covers novel and updated research and treatment options regarding the effects of aging on human physiology. Beauty perception and related molecular pathways are reviewed, along with current medical and surgical approaches to aging. The first part of the book focuses on beauty, youth, aging and its effects on the human body. In the second part, various restorative treatment approaches are reviewed in detail. Particularly, invasive treatment options and molecular pathophysiology of aging are covered in this book.
