Aesthetic Surgery - Reviews

"A lavishly illustrated guide to beautification through the slashing, stitching, freezing, and gouging of skin. ( ) Possibly best kept off the coffee table and in the bathroom."
Bizarre Magazine, London
United Kingdom
"This diverse book is a must on every clinic's book shelf. It is serious, yet humorous. It mixes interviews with famous aesthetic surgeons with before and after photographs of various operations. There's history, art and movies. All these together add up to an excellent overview of the entire aesthetic industry, complete with fairly hard-hitting photographs which are not for the faint of heart. It's hard to understand how such a comprehensive and lavish book could be produced for such a paltry retail price. Excellent value for money."

„Lifting, Botox, Implantat – magische Schlüsselwörter aus dem faszinierenden Reich der Schönheitsoperation … In Texten und vielen Bildern erforscht Angelika Taschen auf hohem wissenschaftlichen Niveau die Geschichte und den kulturellen Background der Schönheitsoperation, interviewt die Meister des Skalpells, fahndet nach Schmerz und Pfusch und dokumentiert den Einfluss auf Kunst und Kino.“
Signora, Wien
Austria
„Erleben Sie, wie Menschen noch ‚schöner‘ werden, lernen Sie die Meister des Skalpells kennen und fahnden Sie mit nach Schmerz und Pfusch. Auf 440 Seiten mit zahlreichen Texten und Bildern seziert Angelika Taschen auf hohem wissenschaftlichen Niveau die Geschichte und die kulturellen Hintergründe der ästhetischen Chirurgie sowie die Einflüsse und Reflexionen auf Kunst und Film.“
As-heute, Berlin
Germany
„Aesthetic Surgery is a cloth bound volume as elegant as it is fascinating. It takes a visceral plunge into surgery past and present, analysing our increasing obsession with beauty at any price, interviewing the world’s most renowned surgeons, and questioning the future of beauty if it is divorced from truth.“
The Big Issue, West Midlands
United Kingdom
 "Wer einsteigen will in die Materie, der hält ein wahres Schatzkästlein in Händen. Hier ist alles drin: Vorher-Nachher-Bilder für den Oha!-Effekt … die Historie der Körperkunst sowie ausführliche Interviews mit den Besten der Branche."
Celebrity, München
Germany
"Una obra completa sobre la historia, procedimientos e información general sobre esta especialidad quirúrgica. El libro ofrece un recorrido por la historia de esta rama de la medicina."
El Diario, New York
United States
"É o título de um livro que conta tudo sobre a cirurgia plástica, desde a sua história, métodos e técnicas, passando pelos os cirurgioes mais famosos do mundo".
Elle, Lisabon
Portugal
"Aesthetic Surgery is a stunningly presented book, ideal for a waiting room in the most luxurious MediSpas."
Spa Australasia Magazine
Australia
"Ma quel naso sarà ritoccato o no? Chi è spesso colto da questa curiosità non potrà rinunciare al libro Chirurgia Estetica a cura di Angelika Taschen. Una bibbia visiva in materia di bisturi, trattata sia sotto l'aspetto medico sia sotto quello storico e di tendenza. Foto di David Lachapelle e quadri di Andy Warhol si alternano a illustrazioni di interventi, rassegne di prima e dopo e interviste con "ferri" celebri."
