Filler injection is one of the most common aesthetic procedure. There are a lot of guidelines but there are no illustrated step by step instructions on safe filler injection procedures. The book will offer guidance to clinicians who wish to expand their practice to minimally invasive cosmetic procedures. Injection techniques for hyaluronic acid filler is highlighted to help practitioners perform the procedures more effectively and safely with evidence based approach. The most safe procedure including vascular anatomical illustration and ultrasound findings, rheological data is presented.
