Notes on aesthetic medicine.
Essays on restraint, anatomy, and the craft of doing less — by Dr Vincent Tan.
The Vincere Journal publishes essays on non-surgical aesthetic medicine — on what to do, what to leave alone, and the difference between the two. Subjects include facial ageing anatomy, the case for restraint in injectable treatment, why some procedures succeed and others quietly fail, and the questions patients ask before consultation but rarely before booking.
