hair transplantation androgenic alopecia minoxidil cryosurgery Rogaine

TLDR The document concludes that the reviewed dermatology books are useful and comprehensive for medical professionals.

The document reviews several dermatological books, including "Practical Cutaneous Cryosurgery," which is described as a practical guide for clinicians with useful information on the history, basic science, office setup, and treatment techniques for cryosurgery, though lacking in data on treatment results. "Hair Transplantation" by Walter Unger and Rolf E. A. Nordstrom is praised as a comprehensive text on hair replacement, covering topics such as androgenic alopecia, medical treatments like minoxidil, surgical procedures, and postoperative care, and is recommended for both surgeons and medical dermatologists. Other books briefly mentioned include "Skin Signs in AIDS," which provides an up-to-date overview of dermatological conditions associated with AIDS, and a few other dermatological and anatomical texts. The reviews highlight the usefulness and completeness of these resources for medical professionals in the field of dermatology.
