I just received my copy of this book and am so happy I bought it! The information will come in handy when discussing peels as an option for clients. Hyperpigmentation, skin texture and suitable skin types are discussed in depth. As another reviewer stated - this book is no substitute for proper training to administer peels but this will definitely serve as a great reference book on the subject. The scope of material also makes this a good buy. It covers other topics like retinols and reactions to hydroquinone. Some of the book is more of a review (basic skin structure) but in context it helps to remind the reader of all variables to consider regarding chemical peels.

Geared for the professional, this book will round out basic knowledge and is very helpful. My book arrived bent and rumpled just thrown in a box, unlike AMAZON'S usual great service. After calling they did replace the book immediatly, the second book came shrink wrapped and packed properly. These things happen and Amazon is great at rectifying them.

This is a great book to refresh and add to your knowledge but certainly most of these procedures should not be attempted without specific training or supervision of a physician.
