Essentials for Aesthetic Dermatology in Ethnic Skin: Practice and Procedure
Essentials for Aesthetic Dermatology in Ethnic Skin: Practice and Procedure 1st Edition:
This book focuses on creating awareness and detailing the nuances of aesthetic dermatology practice in skin of color. It highlights practical considerations in pre-/intra-/post-procedure care with an emphasis on patient selection for aesthetic procedures and the associated challenges involved in real-time practice. It aims to cater to audiences of countries with both high and low populations of dark-skinned patients, as clinicians often have limited experience in treating this group. Numerous topics are explored through case-based discussions and practical tips. This is a practical ready reference manual for a cosmetic dermatologist dealing with darker skin.
