The

Makeover

take years off

your looks and

add them to

your life

Michael F. Roizen, M.D.

A completely revised and

updated edition of RealAge

This book is dedicated to my family, for their enthusiasm for RealAge and their patience

with the project. They not only help me stay young but are the reason I want to be

young. I also dedicate the book to Marty Rom and Charlie Silver, my partners in

introducing so many people to RealAge; and to all who enjoy RealAge, including the

ﬁfty or so Makeovers who inspired this work and are living younger. May you always

have the RealAge you desire.

All case studies portrayed in this book are based on real people. Details not sig-

niﬁcant to the use in this book have been changed to protect the identities of

the individuals involved. In some cases, two or more similar stories have been

combined into one story. Only references to my father, my daughter, and myself

should be considered clearly identiﬁable. Any other likenesses are purely coinci-

dental.

In certain instances, I have listed products, such as medications, by their brand

names, because that is how they are commonly known. On occasion, I have also

included the names of companies and products if I thought such information

would be relevant for the reader. To my knowledge, I have no connections to

any of the companies or brand-name products listed in this book, with the ex-

ception of RealAge, Inc., the company I helped establish for the express purpose

of developing the RealAge computer program. RealAge and Age Reduction are

trademarks and service marks of RealAge, Inc., which currently directs the Real-

Age website ( www.RealAge.com ).

This book is intended to be informational and should not be considered a sub-
