A MEDICAL BOOK THAT IS RICH ON IMAGES AND INFORMATION SPECIFICALLY ELABORATED FOR AND AIMED AT THOSE PROFESSIONALS SPECIALIZING IN AESTHETIC CORRECTIONS OF THE FACE • I dedicate this text, which is the result of many years od work, to all those who, like me, operate in the wonderful world of Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery. For a better understanding of the text,it is useful for me to illustrate my professional past. • It was 1982 when I injected my first phial of filler: it was bovine collagen. • From the initial small corrections, which I effected overcoming fears and worries, i performed wider corrections in various areas of the face, acquiring more and more confidence and awareness about what I was doing( this confidence was due to my knowledge of anatomy, whithout which I wouold have felt “naked”). • Now, in 2014, I still am, as I have always been in all this time, in search of slightly invasive techniques,more and more consolidating my knowledge in order to obtain the best and above all the most natural results. • I held, and am still holding, courses in various parts of the world, proposing to my colleagues all my knowledge acquired in these years, in particular the secrets, the points of attention, the correct therapeutic approach, the global vision of problems and possible limits. All that with the aim of working correctly and reaching the utmost results. • I take part in national and international congresses, where I illustrate my techniques and the new approaches in the field and I compare the colleagues’ experiences with mine with the humbleness of a person who is always willing to learn. • My experience, acquired also through teaching on corpses, has led me not only to a deeper knowledge of anatomy, but also to developing new personal techniques. • In consequence of the continous and appreciated request of material for consultation by Italian and foreign colleagues, I decided to undertake the onerous project of presenting, in this first volume, the anatomy and the noble structures, of which we must have a specific knowledge in order to better understand and assimilate the operative guide-lines used by me, which are going to be dealt with in the second volume. • This text has some peculiar characteristics that can be synthetized in two words: clarity and immediateness in consultation. As we well know, in order to be able to undertake a targeted therapeutic program, regardless of the substance used, a deep knowledge of the anatomy of the face is needed.
