Many illnesses and medical treatments have a negative impact on a person's appearance. Hair loss is a common side effect of chemotherapy; cortisone causes puffiness; accidents and surgery leave visible scars or require appliances. Willis, a Certified Paramedical Camouflage Advisor who consults at the Cleveland Clinic's Cosmetic Center, presents ideas for minimizing these problems, noting that an improved appearance can boost self - esteem and benefit the patient's health. Willis's suggestions include special products such as clothing designed for people who use wheelchairs and camouflage makup. She also tells how to use ordinary clothing and accessories to enhance appearance and disguise flaws. A list of resources is appended. Thorough and concise, this is an excellent treatment of a subject rarely discussed. Highly recommended.-- Susan B. Hag loch, Tuscarawas Cty. P.L., New Philadelphia, Ohio (c) Copyright 2010.
