Plastic surgeon applies practice know-how to marriage maintenance in new guide

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.. September 27. KAZINFORM Nearly half of first-time marriages are failures. Divorce is a stressful, emotional and expensive complication of an unsuccessful marriage. And, like marriage, cosmetic surgery is also unnecessary but popular, according to Dr. Robin T.W. Yuan, a successful Beverly Hills plastic surgeon in "The Skinny on Marriage" (ISBN 1451513852).

According to MMD Newswire, Yuan offers his rules on relationships gleaned from thousands of his encounters with cosmetic surgery patients with the intent of getting things right the first time. With this clear and entertaining guide, individuals and couples can double-check the elements in their pursuit of a successful marriage. While written with humor, Yuan's rules are designed to ensure an indestructible relationship resulting in what he calls The Prize.

"I wrote the book because I have worked hard at developing a process to ensure success in a rewarding but risky endeavor," says Yuan. "I have seen the problems people have with interpersonal relationships, especially in marriage, and the emotional and financial toll it takes when the relationship fails. Because I have been privy to both situations, it seems quite logical and potentially helpful to write about this topic in the hopes that it will help more people than I can personally touch with my scalpel."

Yuan provides a framework for those contemplating marriage based on the concepts, principles and practices he exercises with his cosmetic surgery patients. The author advises using the book as a guide to help improve marriages. The guide can be used individually or as a checklist for couples.

This concise guide walks the reader through the essential elements ensuring a strong relationship. In fifteen chapters, the book provides a practical approach to finding, developing and managing the relationship required in a successful marriage.
