Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ​The series “Clinical Approaches and Procedures in Cosmetic Dermatology” intends to be a practical guide in Cosmetic Dermatology. Procedures in cosmetic dermatology are very popular and useful in medicine, indicated to complement topical and oral treatments not only for photodamaged skin but also for other dermatosis such as acne, rosacea, scars, etc. Also, full-face treatments using peelings, lasers, fillers and toxins are increasingly being used, successfully substituting or postponing the need for plastic surgeries. Altogether, these techniques not only provide immediate results but also help patients to sustain long-term benefits, both preventing/treating dermatological diseases and maintaining a healthy and youthful skin. Throughout this series, different treatments in Cosmetic Dermatology will be discussed in detail covering the use of many pharmacological groups of cosmeceuticals, the new advances in nutraceuticals and emerging technologies and procedures. This volume, entitled “Daily Routine in Cosmetic Dermatology” will be an important tool for aesthetic doctors, practicing dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and all other physicians interested in the field of aesthetic medicine. It discloses in detail the semiology and general treatments in cosmetic dermatology, providing the state-of-the-art regarding patients’ evaluation, photoprotection, nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals and special prescriptions.

Download or read book alpha Hydroxy Acids in Enantioselective Syntheses written by Gary M. Coppola and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 1997-03-27 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gary M. Coppola Herbert F. Schuster alpha;-Hydroxy Acids in Enantioselective Syntheses An ideal synthesis starts with readily accessible reagents and yields the target molecules in high optical purity. The naturally available alpha;-hydroxy acids, lactic, malic, mandelic and tartaric acids, provide the chemist with chiral building blocks for the introduction of one or more asymmetric centers into an organic molecule. This book not only supplies a comprehensive discussion of useful reactions but also demonstrates how complex molecules can have their origin in simple, readily accessible chirally pure starting materials. The authors, both practicing medicinal research chemists, aim at providing information for the design and synthesis of chiral molecules. A particularly attractive feature of this text is the excellent schemes used to illustrate the crucial transformations. All structures are represented in their absolute stereochemistry. Mechanisms as well as insights into the execution of a synthetic pathway are discussed concisely, with a focus on practical aspects. The authors have drawn on their years of writing experience to supply graduate students, research chemists and teachers alike with a gold mine of useful chemistry. Every synthetic chemist will want to have this invaluable resource at his or her disposal.

It also discusses the use of peels to treat aging skin, stretch marks, scars, melasma, chloasma, acne, postinflammatory hyperpigmentation, and scalp keratoses. The mechanism of action, indication, application, and results are discussed for a variety of chemical peels including alpha hydroxy acids, trichloroacetic acid, salicylic acid, resorcine, and phenols. Also covered are any contraindications, precautions, and safety issues. This edition includes new material on adjunctive procedures such as microneedling and mesotherapy as well as new information on mosaic peels. Treatment prior to and following the peel are also discussed in detail, and a full chapter is devoted to discussing complications associated with chemical peels. The book incorporates color clinical photographs throughout as well as descriptive tables summarizing key information. Based on the author’s extensive experience in both research and practice, this updated reference is an invaluable guide to all providers involved with chemical peel treatments.

It provides a comprehensive overview of the most relevant and widely used minimally invasive procedures, presented in a practical and straightforward style. Rather than a broad overview of the literature, it offers a step-by-step guide to clinical procedures. Each chapter explores a single clinical procedure, discussing the theoretical basis; the materials needed; the methods and techniques; clinical follow-up; before-and-after illustrations; as well as the side effects and complications and their management. It also includes a summary of tips and relevant references. With more than a hundred procedures presented and discussed in a clinically applicable format, Minimally Invasive Aesthetic Procedures - A Guide for Dermatologists and Plastic Surgeons is a practical manual for all dermatology and plastic surgery practitioners who are interested in aesthetic medicine.
