Therefore, this book was published for all those who see the art of body aesthetics as a way to use their time productively. And since the female and male figures are part of self-esteem, which is the most relevant factor to mental health, personal fulfillment, and happiness, it includes several chapters that illustrate, define, and explain many of the concepts and procedures necessary for working at home, in an aesthetic clinic, or even managing it as your own business. The bibliography available on the internet regarding the most widely accepted beauty techniques and protocols has been updated with this manual, which leaves nothing out because it includes all the topics and subtopics that will answer any questions related to this highly recommended field.
Beginning with Chapter One, we explore the origins and theory of aesthetics from ancient Greece and compare it to contemporary approaches. In Chapter Two, titled "Aesthetic Subspecialties," we define the concept, intermediate relationships, and types of aesthetics, highlighting the health benefits that can be obtained from various therapies that combine biotechnology and natural methods with age-old techniques. We will also see how aesthetics helps people in more serious cases of facial trauma resulting from accidents that disfigure the face, often requiring more invasive scientific methods.
"Cosmetology and Products" is the title of the third chapter, which describes the protocols with the detailed steps of a massage for facial discomfort and introduces skin types. It also includes a more comprehensive introduction to cosmetology. Following this, we thoroughly discuss nine of the most commonly used body treatments in clinics by estheticians, explaining when they are applicable to patients and for whom they are contraindicated. In some sections of this chapter, you will also find examples of the medical documents required for the patient’s file in the aesthetic clinic, showing how they should be completed and filed to ensure excellent service.
Specialized hair removal is another chapter of this topic that we develop from the characteristics of the hair, criteria for selecting a hair removal technique, types of techniques and of course their protocols when proceeding to apply them.
Another topic we haven’t omitted from this book is Anatomy, covering three of the body systems and organs most directly associated with the aesthetic treatments and therapies offered in beauty clinics. Chapter seven deals with nutrition, and its nine preceding subheadings include dietary practices, health articles, and healthy recipes. Therefore, this re-edition reproduces some chapters from the book "12 Diets of Fullness," where, among other options, you can determine your body mass index.
In the eighth chapter, we will explore the differences between protocol and etiquette terminology, their historical origins, and their evolution to the present day, where postmodernism introduces subconscious norms or rules for members of society on how to project their careers in the arts, among many other tips on dress styles for both ladies and gentlemen. Cultural etiquette customs are another interesting topic that we have presented comprehensively in this section. The penultimate chapter is for beauty professionals and culminates with the details and knowledge that every esthetician should know. Finally, the new tenth chapter of this reissue, which compiles four of the previously discussed relaxation therapies along with six new therapies and Natural Cosmetics, is the last chapter, thus expanding the topics of this expanded 2024 reissue.
