Book Comprehensive Cosmetic Skincare in Cosmetic Dermatology   Skincare Practice

Download or read book Comprehensive Cosmetic Skincare in Cosmetic Dermatology Skincare Practice written by Elena Hernandez-Jimenez and published by Cosmetics & Medicine Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2024-06-26 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprehensive skincare with the help of cosmetic products is the key to maintaining health and youthfulness. Even the most unproblematic skin needs care with properly selected cosmetic products that preserve the skin's own resources and help resist external influences that accelerate aging. Moreover, any popular injection or physical treatment can give maximum effect only if the patient consistently follows a professional and home-based skincare regimen. This is the responsibility of the skincare practitioner, who must be able to not only perform the cosmetic procedure but also help select and explain to the patient the importance of using suitable products for their skin type. This book is dedicated to a detailed review and justification of the importance of all stages of cosmetic care for different skin types — preparation with cleansers and exfoliants, intensive action aimed both at stimulating metabolic processes in the skin and solving various aesthetic problems (e.g., rejuvenation, whitening), and completion of procedures with active cosmetic agents, thereby consolidating the results and increasing the renewed skin's protective potential. We explain in detail how classic and modern products work and why they can be used in some cases and are undesirable in others. We further discuss the most common questions that arise from skincare practitioners and their patients. In addition, separate sections of the book are devoted to skincare for the eyelids, lips, and hands. The book is useful to all professionals working with skin — long-time specialists and novice skincare practitioners, dermatologists, and consultants in selling skincare products, as well as students. In addition, it is of interest to all people who want to have healthy and youthful skin — the publication will expand their understanding of what a beautician does, and why it is so important to provide the necessary care for the skin, and, of course, what exactly it should be.

Book Oily Skin  Acne  and Post Acne in Cosmetic Dermatology   Skincare Practice

Download or read book Oily Skin Acne and Post Acne in Cosmetic Dermatology Skincare Practice written by Elena Hernandez-Jimenez and published by Cosmetics & Medicine Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2024-08-07 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books have been written about acne, but all focus on drug therapy. Unfortunately, the possibilities of modern skincare and aesthetic tools in helping patients with acne are still underestimated. We decided to correct this injustice and created a book in which we present skincare and aesthetic tools, methods, and approaches to preventing and treating this disease. The application of each method is justified in terms of the pathogenesis of acne and is supported by research findings. Describing the events that unfold in the skin after a particular treatment helps in elucidating its clinical possibilities and limitations. Significant advantages of the book are clear language (although we write about complicated things and use medical and scientific terminology, the information can be understood even by laypeople) and structure (all cause-and-effect connections become apparent, there is a complete understanding of what needs to be done and why). The book consists of four parts. The first part discusses the clinical signs and stages of acne and distinguishes the acne types amenable to skincare treatments from those that are not. The second part deals with the diagnosis of acne. It presents recommendations on visual examination and anamnesis collection and discusses the need for clarifying laboratory test results. Much attention is paid to the differential diagnosis of acne with dermatoses like Malassezia folliculitis, rosacea, and demodicosis. The third part presents the factors contributing to the development of acne, explains the pathogenesis of this disease, and outlines the targets to be treated and prevented. The fourth part is devoted to the practical use of skincare and aesthetic tools and methods at different acne stages — oily skin, non-inflammatory and inflammatory acne, and post-acne. The clinical effects of topical skincare products, injectables, cosmetic devices, and nutraceuticals are discussed.

Book Pigmentation in Cosmetic Dermatology   Skincare Practice

Download or read book Pigmentation in Cosmetic Dermatology Skincare Practice written by Elena Hernandez-Jimenez and published by Cosmetics & Medicine Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2024-08-23 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pigment spots are the third most common issue addressed by skincare specialists. Both young and elderly clients come with this complaint, many not for the first time. Therefore, specialists who can effectively resolve these problems will undoubtedly be in demand and achieve well-deserved recognition. This book provides complete and reliable information that will help you build a truly effective and safe program for treating pigmented lesions. The book consists of four parts. The first part describes the nature and mechanisms of pigmentation formation, both constitutive (fixed genetically) and facultative (caused by internal or external influences). The stages of melanogenesis, the current understanding of melanocyte physiology and melanin functions, and differences in skin types between people of different ethnic groups are discussed in detail. Special attention is given to factors influencing pigmentation: hormones, stress, inflammation, nutrients, and ultraviolet radiation. Moreover, "new" factors, such as visible light, infrared radiation, and air pollutants, are discussed clearly and comprehensively. This part concludes with a chapter on the evolution of pigmentation. All this information will give you an in-depth understanding of the nature of pigmentation lesions and, thus, the possibilities of effectively combating them. The second part presents clinical types of dyschromia and describes methods for assessing pigmentation. The third and largest part of the book is devoted to methods of pigmentation prevention and treatment available in skincare practice. Modern depigmenting and exfoliating cosmetic products and the dermal targets on which they act are discussed in detail. Also covered are outdated and dangerous ingredients that can still be found on the market. Separate sections are devoted to sunscreens and antioxidants because they are no less important than bleaching agents in the modern concept of working with pigmentation lesions. Furthermore, in this part, the possibilities of physical methodsare discussed with a detailed description of lasers and IPL devices. These methods allow both pigment-producing and pigment-distributing cells of superficial and deep lesions to be targeted. Injection procedures are also touched upon, focusing on their real possibilities and risks, as well as nutraceuticals for skin lightening with proven effectiveness. The last, fourth part, is devoted to treating vitiligo as the most common variant of hypomelanosis. Many different methods and approaches are used for its treatment, which is also relevant for other acquired pathologies associated with loss of pigment or melanocyte function. The book is intended for aestheticians, skincare specialists, dermatologists, specialists in aesthetic medicine, students at medical schools, and all interested persons.

Book Chemical Peeling in Cosmetic Dermatology   Skincare Practice

Download or read book Chemical Peeling in Cosmetic Dermatology Skincare Practice written by Elena Hernandez-Jimenez and published by Cosmetics & Medicine Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2024-08-22 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical peeling (chemoexfoliation) has been among the most popular skincare and cosmetic dermatology treatments for many years. Its popularity is well deserved because it makes it possible to solve different aesthetic problems effectively and with minimal risks. Yes, this is true, but with one caveat: if the peeling is done correctly. "Correctly" means not only the procedure itself. The peel product, skin pre-treatment, and following restorative care must be chosen and performed by a qualified professional in line with the patient's needs and health status. There are many nuances, and the specialist's skill is to consider them all. This book presents all the most important facts you should know and remember when working with chemoexfoliation — from the chemical nature of different peeling agents and their effects on skin cells to the clinical effect, from indications and contraindications to the features of the procedure. The book reflects up-to-date knowledge and views about the purposes, mechanisms of action, and clinical possibilities of chemical peeling with a proven basis. The book consists of four parts. The first part reveals the essence of the method named "chemical peeling" and discusses its clinical capabilities and limitations in general. The second part describes different types of chemical peels — keratolytic, acid, enzymatic, and retinol. Although there are some similarities in the primary clinical outcomes (skin scaling), the peeling agents differ in their chemical nature, targets in the skin, and mechanisms. In addition to general indications and contraindications, each chemical peeling type has peculiarities in the procedure, and our book explains why this is so. The third part discusses the general principles of chemical peeling — the choice of the peel formulation, the skin preparation for the procedure, the procedure itself, and the subsequent rehabilitation. It also includes information about the influence of nutrition on the clinical results of chemical peeling. The fourth part focuses on the usefulness of instrumental assessment of skin conditions before and after the chemical peeling. Objective data on the initial state of the barrier function of the patient's skin helps the practitioner to select the optimal peel product, determine the interval between the procedures, and monitor the skin's recovery. This reduces the risks of unwanted reactions and achieves the best possible clinical results.
