Unlike most books on cosmetic surgery that do a broad brush of all options and procedures, "The Little Book of Lipo" is a true insider's guide to the most popular surgery in the country: liposuction, its pros, cons, and how to prepare, get the most out of it, and recover safely and fast. Not only does author Carol Martin give you the power to analyze whether to lipo or not to lipo, she offers a step-by-step consumer's guide on how to choose a top surgeon, from checking credentials to a list of questions to ask, how to prepare your house, friends, family, overcome any fears, the right diet and danger signs to look for while healing-everything you need to know but didn't know to ask. "You can trust what you learn from this book. There is no agenda here except to educate the consumer," says Dr. Vince Zubowicz, a top Atlanta plastic surgeon who wrote the forward. "You won't find this kind of unbiased information in the yellow pages or a website."
