Cosmetic Dermatology: Products and Procedures

Back for a new edition, Zoe Draelos’s outstanding resource to cosmetic dermatology again provides a highly-illustrated, clinical guide to the full range of cosmetic skin treatments.

Bringing together experts from research, industry, surgery and practice, it is structured in four distinct parts for easy navigation by the busy clinician:

• Basic Concepts – giving an overview of the physiology pertinent to cosmetic dermatology and the delivery systems by which treatments can take effect
• Hygiene Products – evaluating cleansing and moisturising products
• Adornment – looking at aesthetic techniques such as cosmetics, nail prostheses and hair treatment
• Antiaging – i.e. injectables, resurfacing and skin contouring techniques, and the rapidly growing area of Cosmeceuticals

With over 300 high-quality images and key summary boxes throughout, this new edition incorporates the newest procedural innovations in this rapidly developing field. Perfect for all dermatologists, especially those specialising in cosmetic dermatology and whether hospital-based or in private practice, it provides the complete cosmetic regimen for your patients and will be an indispensable tool to consult over and over again.
