Your Cosmetic Surgery Consultation

Dr Darryl Hodgkinson's handbook, 'Your Cosmetic Surgery Consultation, is a straightforward and informative guide to aesthetic surgery. Dr Hodgkinson combines his practical knowledge and international experience as a cosmetic plastic surgeon with the patient consultations he has conducted over three decades to create a book that answers the most frequently asked questions about cosmetic surgery.

Over the years, Dr Hodgkinson recognised a common pattern of questions arising from the initial inquiry and follow-up consultations. From here he has created an inventory addressing these queries about plastic surgery in general. As well, he answers the questions plaguing most of us, such as how to remove the flab under our arms, what we can do to fix saggy breasts, and why the fat on our hips, thighs and waist is so hard to get rid of.

‘A large part of what I do is to help
my patients have the confidence to
fulfil their dreams’

The handbook details procedures for the face, nose, ears, eyes and neck, as well as covering facelifting, body contour surgery and liposuction, breast surgery, body implants and problem skin. This jargon-free guide offers sound advice from someone with a passion for cosmetic surgery. Also included are before-and-after photographs of patients Dr Hodgkinson has treated over the years.

When it comes to plastic surgery, some readers have difficulty distinguishing media hype from quality information. Your Cosmetic Surgery Consultation explains exactly what is involved with cosmetic surgery and helps the reader to absorb quality information free of medical jargon and media melodrama.

As the book explains, plastic surgery is a unique subspecialty of medicine because the surgeon primarily deals with ‘well’ patients.

Dr Hodgkinson adds that he’s ‘dealing with more than just bones and tissues… a large part of what I do is to help my patients have the confidence to fulfil their dreams.’ Dr Hodgkinson considers plastic surgery to be an art form, involving sculpting the body to improve its aesthetic value and to increase the patient’s self-esteem.

Today, plastic surgery is experiencing a period of refinement in which patients are demanding surgery of the highest quality and the surgeon needs to be as aware of ‘artistic anatomy’ as he does ‘morbid anatomy’.

Dr Hodgkinson writes, ‘For most people, the choice of plastic surgery will be one of the most important life decisions and is not to be taken lightly.’

Your Cosmetic Surgery Consultation is an authoritative guide for those people contemplating cosmetic surgery, or for those among us who simply want to learn more about this fascinating field of medicine. acsm
